The lodges are absolutely gorgeous we were only there for two nights but would definitely book again. Sat outside on the porch with our breakfast looking at the view. Staff are excellent.

Unfortunately the bar was not open when we were there.

We had a lovely week at Cologin, relaxing and enjoying Oban and the surrounding area. We have stayed here several times and have never been disappointed. Katie and the team are so welcoming, and it was lovely to see Benji again and meet Toby, the golden Labrador. The dark skies on a clear night are amazing, and the views of the stars are just marvellous. The food and service in the Barn Bar and Restaurant are excellent, and a very warm welcome was extended to us when we arrived. I would thoroughly recommend Cologin Chalets and Lodges to anyone visiting the area.

Service was excellent, food delicious and really good value. Bar prices are good too. Would definitely suggest a visit if you are staying here.

It was our first time at Cologin, so I felt a little apprehensive. It was lovely and clean, which was pleasing. Katie came over to say hello when we arrived, which was really lovely. She was very welcoming and helpful too. There were a couple of issues, but Katie very promptly sorted them out. Her customer service and communication skills were spot on : ) Beds really comfy and rooms very airy. One thing that could be considered though, were the non-stick cooking pans, which were in an awful condition. Best to use stainless steel for health reasons and if people use metal utensils, then it would be okay (why people do this to non-stick pans is beyond belief!) Would definitely consider coming back : )

We thoroughly enjoyed our two nights at Cologin Farm Lodges. The location was beautiful, peaceful and ideal for a chill out break. The kitchen was well equipped and the interior design was lovely. We would love to visit again in the future, for a bit longer next time!

We had an excellent stay at one of the cologin farm lodges. The lodge had been refurbished and was very clean. Customer service is fantastic, we felt very welcome. We booked a lodge because we wanted to be away from town and still close enough. You do need a car to get around though - there are no buses. But communication was very transparent so we knew about that beforehand. In turn you get a peaceful area among green hills and with a busy wee pub right on your doorstep. Wer loved it and highly recommend the cologin farm lodges!

We had a couple of pints near enough every night when the pub was open and loved having the busy and cute pub right in front of our lodge.

Great place to stay. Cabin was perfect for my Mum and I to share and have a breather on our travels. Immaculate and clean all round.
Unfortunately the little pub was closed on the first night of our stay but they more than made up for it on the Thursday night. We had a beautiful meal and a great time. Truely lovely atmosphere.
Accommodation was a real treat all round and we hope we can come back all the from Australia again!

Delicious dinner, lovely atmosphere and staff were very friendly. We got carried away having a drink in the sun and ordered late so I think we only had like two option left on what we could order. Can’t remember what it was but I remember liking it haha. Thank you

A nice modern semi detactched cabin not far from Oban. We didn’t vist the Barn bar or restaurant so cannot comment on that. The cabin had cooking facilities and a tv. Taxis to and from Oban cost about £12.

Not designed for cooking a full meal. Only about 2sq ft of usable worktop and limited pots. Exactly two of everything so constant washing up required. No egg cups. Sofa and beds very comfy. TV is tuned in to London and Midlands so unable to get Scottish news and weather. Otherwise, great location for touring the area and handy having the Barn nearby for meals and drinks. Very dog friendly which was brilliant.

I am so glad you enjoyed your stay at Cologin. Thank you for mentioning the missing egg cups - these have now been replaced from our stores. We note your comments regarding only have sufficient crockery for 2 people - we will give this some thought. We reduced all equipment in the kitchen down to the bare minimum to comply with Covid regulations. As you pointed out, the kitchen area is small in these one bedroom properties and we want to ensure that the working space is maximised so washing up as you use seemed sensible, but we will now reconsider so thank you for your feedback.

I never saw a night like it!

I enjoyed my stay at this small cabin but I didn't need any more space. Very cosy, wifi worked well on water was always hot when needed. Kithchen utensils and crockery could improve - no bowls or cutting knives.

These are handy chalets in a rural location. They are comfortable and have the basics although the kitchen equipment is minimal - you can't do much cooking. For the price they are excellent value. The bar restaurant is good and the staff are friendly and helpful. We had a problem with the wi-fi. They had a new system installed during our visit but it wasn't great afterwards - maybe teething troubles?

It was fully booked when we arrived due to Eat out to Help but we ate there last year and it was good.

Enjoyed our mid week stay at this quiet rural accommodation. It is close to Oban but completely rural and away from the hustle and bustle.
The lodge we stayed in was semi-detached, small but there was enough room for two people. We couldn't get the wi-fi that it said was available but we didn't bother chasing this up with the owners. We ate at the Barn on the site and we enjoyed the food and drink.

Very good place to stay if you have a dog. Very quiet and rural location. Chalet was very clean and lovely comfortable beds. Shower not very powerful but adequate. Having the Barn Bar just opposite the chalet was a great advantage. Cosy bar serving good food and drink. Wood burning stove in the bar was welcome as it was quite a cold, damp weekend. It's just a short drive into Oban.

We stayed at Cologin for 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. We had to check in later than planned but we warned the team and were told it was no problem. On arrival, the electric fire was on which made the living room look very cosy and inviting. The lodge smelled fresh and everything was very clean. The beds were comfy, shower was powerful and the kitchen was well stocked with crockery and cutlery (and some useful food and drink bits - possibly left by previous tenants).

The only very minor issues were a couple of things not working - the electric heater in the bedroom wouldn't switch on (not a problem as it was mild and not needed) and the soap dispenser didn't work (again no big deal as you could just unscrew the top). We told the friendly bar staff and I'm sure it was sorted after we left.

The country surroundings were brilliant, lots of mountains and cows! The mooing was our alarm clock in the mornings - a welcome change from the usual beeping. And plenty of different birds for twitchers to spot, as well as a family of white ducks(?) enjoying the stream on site. The lodge's dogs could be seen snoozing too, a great site for animal and wildlife lovers.

Thanks Cologin for a great stay :-)

Very comfortable accommodation - ideal for the 2 of us - and comfortable too!
Location very peaceful and picturesque.
Only possible complaint would be the Freesat TV provided - it was only the SKY 'default' setting which gave us BBC1 London , BBC2 England, and ITV Central (Birmingham area).
There was no STV or STV2 available as they needed to obtain from SKY the local Freesat viewing card for the Oban area which is readily available for a one-of fee of £25!
Admittedly BBC Scot was available on ch 951 but not any other remotely Scottish channels!!!

Jim and Linda Thanks again for your great venue for diving out of oban. The chalets let us have the freedom to come and go easily ample parking for boats etc. Very good. The location is great and easily accessible to the sound of mull for our diving activities. Great food served in the barn restaurant good beer and a good selection of traditional Scottish malts. The chalets allow for self catering easily we on several occasions feed all members of our party in one two bed chalet we had booked three. Great venue for other activities as well family friendly. Great around.

I visit often because the area is historically interesting and accommodations superb. The cottage was comfortable, clean, and well lit. Kitchen facilities were equipped to prepare reasonable meals. Wifi communications are adequate -- cell phones need to use the wifi connection or be used from the hill behind the cottages, the hill which affords, incidentally, spectacular views.

Meals and conversation at the Barn are very good. The live music and song, which can appear one or two times a week, are of extremely high quality.

Many sites of historical and archaeological interest are reached easily from Cologin.

I am sorry you did not find the switch for the power shower! To comply with UK regulations the switch is OUTSIDE the bathroom. Without the pump activated the shower would have been very weak and I am sorry you did not mention the problem to the staff so they could point out the switch for you. I appreciate that our Welcome Folder and all the chalet instructions are in English so we try harder with some visual clues to make the switch easier to identify.

Enjoyable comfortable and friendly staff

We realy enjoyed our stay and would come again. We needed somewhere dog friendly, and our dog is still young and lively, so it ticked the boxes for her too.

The sun shone every day so we appreciated the extra 'room' provided by the outside decking. Inside the space was fine for two with comfy beds, a great shower and everything we needed to prepare a fry up breakfast! Lambs bleating, ducks quacking and bird song were a great soundtrack to our stay. We ate in the Barn (fab) and one night in Oban (Waterfront - very good) and borrowed a BBQ for our last night for some langoustines (Watts fishmongers on the pier). All in all the perfect stay, peaceful, relaxed and homely.

We thought the location and the small number of chalets was great - nicer than a huge number of other accommodation and guests. We didn't have time to use The Barn, but it's obviously popular with both guests and locals and provides a nice social focal point. The chalet was clean and tidy and had very good heating and lighting, with a heated towel rail and a good mirror with light over in the bathroom, separate electric heat in the bedroom and living room. The seating was good - sofa and table and chairs, so not a problem finding a place to sit and eat or watch tele. Good Sky service and a complete list of programmes for those of us who aren't used to Sky. The beds were comfortable and there was some hanging space for clothes there and in another place, also little drawers in the bedside table, but it would have been nice to have a few more drawers somewhere; a bit limited on where to stash clothing. Kitchen had oven, hob, microwave, toaster, but needed a few more implements such as cheese grater, whisk, kitchen sponge, more glasses, etc. The cutlery and crockery were a rather mixed, mongrel and limited supply, almost as though we were being encouraged not to try to cook but to go to The Barn to eat instead. The main downside was the shower. I realise that in a rural setting, water pressure is often a problem, but perhaps a pump on the shower could boost pressure? I actually gave up washing my hair one morning because it would have taken so long to get the soap off, so miniscule was the flow of water. The wifi was limited and slow, but we didn't go on holiday to use the internet and only needed a short time on it. Apart from the shower, though, very good accommodation and highly recommended.

Oh dear! It sounds like you did not have the shower pump switched on as that shower is a pumped unit and is usually very powerful. I will see what I can do about labelling the correct switch (which to comply with regulations is outside the bathroom). I am glad you enjoyed most other aspects of the chalet and promise to look at the eclectic mix of crockery which has crept in over the years! I have added a cheese grater as every lodge should have one and I am sorry that was missing in yours. Hopefully we can welcome you back in the future as our return customers enjoy a 10% discount out of season.

One night stay

Accommodation basic but clean, only disappointment was shower, very high shower tray with no grab rails, as we are mature couple this was a disadvantage. All staff friendly and very helpful. Scenary was breathtaking,actually had good weather.
Dog walk was up a steep field with livestock, therefore not suitable for the less mobile or those without walking boots.
Overall enjoyable weekend.

Great location, 10 minutes from Oban, local area of outstanding beauty. Unfortunately we picked the wettest weekend of the year. Two months worth of rain in two days, but it did not stop us enjoying the area and scuba diving some of the best scenic dives in the UK. The Barn was a delight, nice big warm fire and great hospitality. We enjoyed a couple of nights being entertained by the local folk group and sampled one or two of the well kept real ales, food was warm and hearty.

Reasonable menu, would have liked more "Vegetarian" choices, well stocked bar with good selection of real ales, very welcoming.

excellent place to stay if you want somewhere quiet and relaxing. The chalets are starting to show a little wear and tear but this is currently being addressed. The food at the barn is great. The staff are all helpful and friendly, Gemma is a real asset in the bar! A word of warning - if you don't want peace and quiet and wish to stay in contact with work then do not stay here, if you are normal then definitely do!! My only gripe, why no shop on site? We will be back.

Having stayed at Cologan many times in he 1980s it was intresting to return 30 years later to find that it had hadly changed. It was good then & it still is. The accomodaton has been very well maintained & updated of course and the Barn Bar was as friendly as ever. We will be returning to Cologan soon. We will not wait another 30 years we will back this year.

As the leader of large groups (upwards of 60 people at times) of geology students that need accommodating on an annual basis for a week, we are regular visitors to Cologin Chalets. The chalets are always immaculate and well equipped for self catering and Linda and Jim's welcome in particular, makes life very easy and comfortable for us. The proximity of The Barn, a friendly bar and restaurant which is literally onsite, means you can treat yourself to a fine meal if the self catering looses it's appeal. The food at The Barn is excellent and often features local sea food specials and the bar hosts locally brewed beers too. We run day trips from our base at Cologin Chalets to places like Isle of Kerrera, Isle of Luing and others so it is ideally located for exploring the region. And although our students (most of them anyway) have outgrown the childrens' play ground on site, and prefer to use the bar facilities in the evenings, the ducks and geese wandering around and the shallow burn running through the property gives the place a family farm feel which is ideal for families with young children. Very highly recommended indeed.
