Visit from Norfolk, August 2022
A well equipped lodge in a very picturesque location. Lots to see and do in the local area but the Loch is remote (as expected) and it takes a long time to drive relatively short distances to explore further afield. Loved watching the Swift's and Swallows on an evening from the Hot tub and the ice cream from the village shop was well enjoyed by the kids. Would definitely return!

Wonderful short break
We were enchanted by the cabin, it was cozy, comfortable and had everything we needed. We used the hottub regularly, so relaxing. The surrounding where amazing. We enjoyed kayaking on loch. We also rented rowing boats to see castle ruin. Rowan cafe was very handy, cocktails, cakes and pizza. We had magical 3 days.

Cabin was wonderful, great place to stay.
Unfortunately the hot tub wasn't working, but owner refunded the hot tub payment, very easy to contact. The area is amazing and not to far from oban. Will definitely go back. Lack of WiFi was a little annoying.

August Stay
My friends and I had the most amazing stay at this cabin. Both the cabin and the surrounding areas were stunningly beautiful. The weather was unexpectedly warm so were able to enjoy the area outside so much more. Would recommend to anyone looking for somewhere rustic with a lot of charm and am already hoping to return sometime in the near future.

Very nice cabin for our stay with 3 adults and 6 children
The cabin is very nice and modern. We visited Loch Awe with 9 persons, which is the absolute maximum of people for this cabin. Everything you need is availalbe, pub and little shop in Dalavich. Perfect place for us :-)

Wonderfully relaxing time in quiet place
We stayed at the Onida cabin set in a fantastic location beside Loch Awe (approx . 50 yards) and a quiet woodland. We had wonderfully relaxing holidays. The lodges are clean, comfortable and very well equipped -we literally only had to take with us food, clothes and extra towels. Everyone on site were very friendly and helpful. I would also say to be mindful of the time of year you are going and take plenty midge repellent. We had a lovely time here and would definitely go back.

Amazing
The stay was amazing, comfortable house, clean and tidy. The staff is really nice and helpful even though we have arrived really late - really sorry about that again. It is a remote location so if you are travelling from far calculate with at least an hour extra on the GPS estimate. The weather is definitely Scottish, but it was nice coming from stuffy, sweaty, all too warm London. David was very nice and helpful with any questions regarding the booking and he helped me big time when I messed up. So big shout out to him. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants a nice, quiet, healthy holiday stay where they can let their kids roam free and play away their energy. Thank you from all our hearts for this unforgettable stay, hope to make it back again soon.

Fairy tale luxury stay
Loved the space as this is a really large cabin with excellent quality furnishings. This is the only cabin I have known with a bath! Really like the attention to detail provided even down to hairdryers. Oh and even TV/DVD to keep the kids happy in every bedroom as well as the lounge. If you like staying in log cabins this is the one for a getaway break in Scotland!

Wonderfull setting
The site had been recommended and it did not fail to live up to expectations! Our cabin Onida was about 50 yards from the shore of the Loch in an ideal location. The cabin itself was extremely large and well furnished and it provided a great base to explore the area. The site itself was quiet, peaceful and an ideal place for a rest. The facilities on site ie the bar and restaurant were good and the food in the restaurant was excellent. If you wanted to stay on site there were plenty of things to do, boating, walking, fishing, cycling etc but if not you were not too far from Oban and some great drives in the area. Just getting there from Teesside driving past Loch Lomand was a real treat and later venturing to Fort William proved to be a fantastic and beautiful drive. Onida was an excellent cabin ideal for a family or just for a couple to get away from it all. Cooking and dining facilities were excellent, and it was a great size with two ground floor bedrooms and an upstairs area for the kids with great views and a balcony to take in the evening sun. TV reception was not a problem so something to do if it rained! Overall the visit we had for just over a week was ideal and it was beyond our expectations, cant wait to get back again next year! Thoroughly recommend Onida and the site!
