We’ve stayed at these lodges 4 times now and have never been disappointed. The lodge is warm cosy spotlessly clean and has everything you could need. The location in the middle of the forest is stunning. There are plenty of lovely walks right on your door step. The communication with Stephen and Liz was great from start to finish. Thank you Yvonne and Archie

Sehr schönes Holzhaus in einer wunderschönen Umgebung.
Sehr gut ausgestattet.
Ein Mietwagen ist allerdings Pflicht, man sollte auch den Linksverkehr gewöhnt sein. Die Straßen in der Umgebung sind für deutsche Verhältnisse ziemlich schmal.

Excellent, scenic location, plenty of things to do locally with pubs, diners, shops, local attractions within short driving distance.
The lodge itself is comfortable, easy to find, and with plenty of extras (dishwasher, Wi-Fi, TV, DVD, etc.).
My only issue was that the shower was a quite weak.
Definitely recommend.

Thank you for your kind words and useful information. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We always believed comments on our shower water pressure was just due to guests from the city expecting 'rainwater' or high pressure showers like the ones they have at home, but we have discovered the water pressure to the cabin had been reduced. Thank you for alerting us to this and helping us to 'think again'. It's the little things that matter... :)

Again we had a great wee break away with Chase The Wild Goose Holiday rentals at Pucks Glen . The cabin was just like a wee cosy wee place to enjoy the peace and quiet. Great views and beautiful surroundings. We have been here a few times now and always enjoyed our time there. The cabin FRAOCHAN, this was our first stay in this one. Everything was perfect except 2 lights cut off in the kitchen and no bulb in the hall while we were there. I am looking forward to going back again, ( soon I hope ) Thanks also to the owners who kept in touch with check in. (thanks Stephen & Liz ).

All I can say now is..... see you again soon Pucks Glen

Many thanks for your excellent rating and helpful comments. We are really pleased you enjoyed your stay. We hold up our hands - light bulbs often do ‘pop’ and it’s not always easy to source the LED ones locally at short notice, but we really should have replaced the missing one..! Looking forward to your return visit. All the best. Stephen & Liz

Some family members stayed here for our wedding. Overall it was very nice and the location is excellent. The site is very clean and quiet and there is no need to drive to go on some great walks. The cabin is lovely to be in and is well decorated. The heating in the lounge could be improved and some light bulbs were missing. Apart from that, highly recommended.

Stayed here for two nights with my girlfriend to escape and was such a lovely quiet retreat. The cabin itself had so much character and was very comfortable to stay in. Very clean and everything I expected and more, would definitely return back as the area is very nice and fell in love with the cabin and surrounding scenery. Hosts were excellent and willing to help.

We have stayed in many self-contained accommodations and rate this as among the best. The location is excellent, right next to a beautiful walk through woodland and along a gorge and in winter the cabin is cosy and homely. The decor is stylish and in keeping with the cabin, it is spotlessly clean and the owners provide their own kind personal touches. We stayed here for the second time on our recent visit and due to a booking error almost didn’t make it but the owners pulled out all the stops to make it happen. We love this cabin and will definitely be back.

Once we actually found the lodge, we kept looking for a site called Puck's Glen, and it is in fact part of Lament Lodges, we were delighted with the accommodation. The lodge is in fact only about 10-15 minutes from Dunoon.
The lodge was lit up on our arrival and was warm and welcoming. We thought it looked lovely. The beds were comfortable and all the appliances worked. Some nice touches with a little welcome pack.
Thanks

Thank you for your feedback and kind comments. We call ourselves Pucks Glen Lodges (our business name) to distinguish ourselves from the other privately-owned Lodges on the Lamont Lodges site, each of which offers different facilities, quality and comfort levels of quality to our own. For the benefit of future visitors, we do send directions to our guests, and we reside locally so we can provide timely assistance when it’s required. We are nonetheless delighted you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again. All the best. Stephen & Liz

On entering the lodge the comments were 'This is awesome' and it lived up to first impressions for the 5 days we stayed. The lodge has a very cosy feel about it and has good views to the front and side and backs on to the forest so perfectly positioned.
The wallks through Pucks Glen were beautiful and could be made strenuous or not and a 20 minute walk from the lodge along the forest track takes you straight to the Botanical gardens where we spent a full 7 hours as there was plenty to see and and lots of tracks to walk.
We hired kayaks on Loch Eck just a 5 minute drive away, they were £15 for 4 hours so very reasonably priced.
All in all we wouldn't hesitate to recommend the lodge and the location especially if you want a quiet location with plenty of walking from your doorstep.

Wunderschön! Etwas einsam gelegen Blockhütte mit sehr gemütlicher Einrichtung. Zum Wandern und Erholen ideal, direkt am wunderschönen Pucks Glen gelegen. Dieses kleine Seitental muss man unbedingt bewandern (ca. 1h-Tour). Gute Basis für Ausflüge ins Loch Lomond Gebiet.

Nach Dunoon zum Einkaufen ca. 15 Minuten mit dem Auto.

Sehr netter Kontakt!

Absolutely loved our stay here. The cabin had everything we could possibly need in a home-from-home. The place was immaculate and I cannot fault anything. Kitchen was well equipped with everything necessary. The site itself was very quiet and it was great to walk outside and take a stroll into the woods. Would certainly recommend the cabin and the hosts had thought of everything. 5 stars from us all (even out teenage son who was happy with the smart tv, Netflix etc.

The Pucks Glen Lodge was a beautifully clean and well appointed place to stay with all that is needed for a comfortable stay away from home. The bed was extremely comfortable and the lodge was a lovely relaxing place to stay. Although it's very near the road, we were not disturbed by noise and it felt like it was far into the countryside with lovely views up into the woods behind the lodge. The proximity to Pucks Glen amazing waterfall walk, the Benmore Botanic Gardens with its lovely red squirrel hide was a real plus, particularly when combined with the lodge's proximity to Dunoon with all its facilities. We loved our stay.

the lodge was spotlessly clean, beautiful surroundings, you can walk litterally for miles. you will need transport as dunoon is about 5 miles away. in the lodge itself everything you would need is there, but the wi-fi is woeful.
