Siskin Lodge Lunga

Siskin Lodge is near Lunga House in Argyll. It's a cabin that used to be a caravan, but it's been fully converted. It's double glazed and has central heating and a gas fire. It's detached and sits up in a wooded hillside, surrounded by mossy rocks. You get a good view over the sea towards Jura.

It sleeps two people in one bedroom. You can have it as a double or two singles. The bathroom has a bath and a separate shower. There's another separate toilet by the front door. The living area is open plan with a kitchen, sofas, and a TV. There's a washing machine and tumble dryer in a little laundry room, which is handy for drying wet coats.

Outside there's a big timber deck with furniture and a BBQ. You drive about half a mile along a private track to get to it. There's a gate, but it's usually open. You can park right by the cabin.

The location is quiet. There are two other cabins in the wood, but you can't see them. The track eventually leads to wild coast and countryside. You can walk to hill forts and old rock carvings. The local land is used for grazing horses, so it's good for walking dogs. You're about a mile from a beach.

There's a pub and restaurant about three quarters of a mile away. Craobh Haven is close by for boat trips to the islands, which are really worth doing. You can book horse riding at the nearby stables. Arduaine Gardens is about four miles away. Oban is half an hour's drive for shopping or ferries. The National Trust for Scotland's Arduaine Garden page has visiting information.

The cabin has a 3 Star rating. It's comfortable and clean. We allow up to two dogs. There's a cot available if you need one. Bedding and towels are included.

You can book Siskin Lodge together with Catkin Lodge and Teasel Lodge if you're in a bigger group.
