Back for our annual holiday with Jim and Julie, chalet nice and warm as usual on our arrival, good to see everyone again, we always look forward to returning I'm sure it's been 11yrs now and it never disappoints, nothing is too much trouble for the owners, only drawback this year is for whatever reason the owners of the pub decided to close during the school holidays, we didn't let it stop us enjoying our break, already looking forward to returning next year,

Many thanks to Jim and Julie for providing a great break in a clean and comfy lodge in a super location. We were cosy despite theweather at times during our week ending 19th November 2022. Our first time but not our last as we look forward to returning to a lovely lodge in what we can only describe as heaven in Appin. The amount of helpful info provided enabled us to eat, walk and sample the wonderful surroundings of this magic place. Once again greatful thanks to a lovely family effort.

Was a nice holiday at a beautiful location. If there's anything to improve at all, it's the kitchen equipment (just a frying pan, dull knives). But thats secondary.

We stayed for a week and it was really comfy, great location and in reach of the Creagan Inn. My only complaint would be the washing machine was out of order but then it did save me from doing any washing!! We’ll definitely be coming back!

Outstanding welcome by Julie made the perfect start to our holiday and the lodge was clean and comfortable if showing its age a bit.... But then, so am I !!
Be aware its a longish way to a shop for even basics.

Just home from a week in a lodge. Can’t fault a thing, views from the lodge and decking we’re breathtaking. Great location for travelling around the local area, we used it as a base to visit Oban, Fort William, Glen Nevis, Fort Augustus and Loch Ness, Glenfinnan and Glencoe. Lodge was spotless and comfortable. Fully stocked kitchen and plenty of channels on the tv.

An absolutely fantastic four night stay in Ash Tree Lodge. The lodge was extremely comfortable and clean with all Covid 19 guidelines in place. The beds were great, the kitchen was well equipped and the lounge area had a picture window giving stunning views of the Loch. The decked area was fabulous to sit at and enjoy the views. The location of Appin Holiday Homes is perfect for exploring the surrounding area including Port Appin, Oban, Fort William and Glencloe. This was our first visit here and so looking forward to a return visit. Thank you Jim and Julie for a wonderful break !

A lovely lodge with amazing views on a dedicated cycle path in both directions to either Port Appin or to Connel bridge. The Creagan Inn is a great pub 5 minutes walk away with a lovely terrace to watch the sunset and lovely food. Also worth visiting Poppies Garden Centre for a nice lunch with great views. We were lucky with cold but dry weather and thoroughly enjoyed our trip.

Just a couple of things let the property down from getting a 100% excellent review. The temperature control on oven had the wrong knob and you couldn't set it properly, so burnt the pizza! The bathroom mirror light and razor socket was not working. Other than that everything else was great.

We stayed in Ash lodge for a week over New Year. We had a fantastic time and lived having some chill out time on holiday. It was great to feel away from everything but you have all the amenities a very short drive away. We had 12 if us all in 3 lodges which was great being right next to each other. We will definitely be doing this again and look forward to booking again.

This was our second week this year at Appin Holiday Homes, after staying in Caravan I the first time we decided to try a lodge and we can only describe it as FANTASTIC.

We stayed in Ash Tree Lodge and we found it to be very very clean and comfortable, the location in between Oban and Fort William was perfect for us to visit various places.

Jim and Julie are really nice people and they go the extra mile to make sure everything is ok and you are comfortable.

The only downside to staying here is that you have to come home when your break is over.

We can honestly say that this is fantastic value for money and we will be back next year.

We had a fantastic stay in Ash Tree lodge. The site is in a great location with lovely walks and a super outdoor area in which the children could play. Being so close to the Creagan Inn was another advantage. The lodge itself was very clean and comfortable with a beautiful view of the loch. Jim and Julie the hosts were amazing and so very helpful. We unfortunately had a car crash in Ardnamurchan and were 3 days without a car. Jim and Julie helped us out so much by ferrying us to Port Appin and taking us to the local shop for supplies. This was over and above what many people would do and we really really appreciated their kindness. Despite our traumas we had a lovely break at a fantastic place!

Everything was spotlessly clean when we arrived. 2 adults and 2 teenage children.
The lodge was comfortable with 2 x 2 seat couches, TV and DVD player.
No wifi in the lodges but we knew that before we arrived.
Great complementary tea/coffee tray.
Cutlery and crockery enough for us but there were no tea plates.
No bath mat for the bathroom floor making the floor slippery when exiting the bash/shower.
We could have used something to keep our toothbrushes in but we moved a tumbler into the bathroom for that.
Being a front lodge there was a lot of road noise during early morning week days as this is the main road from Ft William to Oban, the management grew a hedge which dulled the noise down a bit.

This was the ideal location and the property was perfect the only thing I would say is the beds need updating a little as the are not very comfy and very squeaky to the extent that even rolling over would wake us up. But apart from that it was brilliant!!!

Beautiful setting, views to die for and grounds very well looked after. Lodge was relatively small but very well furnished, comfortable and homely. Décor much better than expected given that the website describes only top row lodges as recently refurbished. Was expecting ours to be a bit tired and dated but it was really lovely. Balcony/deck too small for table and chairs for all of us which was a shame but not a deal breaker at all. Family owned and very personal, good local information in lodge, lots to do in area and nice places to eat. We had a fantastic 3 nights and could easily have stayed for longer - next time we'll go for a week!

A beautiful location overlooking Loch Crerran. We visited Oban where we dined al fresco on local seafood and took a boat trip to see the seals off Kerrera. We went north to Fort William and the Nevis Range where we took a fantastic ride on the cable cars 2,000 feet up Aonach Mor with superbe views including Ben Nevis. Evenings spent sat on the sheltered verandah or at the impressive Creggan Inn only a short stroll away down the new cycle track. We'll be back !
