Stravaigin Lodges sit amid towering conifers and tumbling burns on the Cowal Peninsula, six miles north of Dunoon. Tucked between Holy Loch and Loch Eck, our traditional Scandinavian-style log cabins provide a restful base at the very edge of Argyll Forest Park. Step outside and you are immediately on woodland trails that wind through Puck’s Glen, while a short drive delivers you to sweeping beaches, historic gardens and the lively waterfront of Dunoon itself. Whether you are planning a family walking holiday, a romantic short break or a longer spell of West Coast exploration, Stravaigin Lodges offer comfort, privacy and an authentic Highland atmosphere in a location that feels wonderfully remote yet is easy to reach by road or ferry.

This lodge offers a welcoming, fully double-glazed retreat for up to six guests, with two double bedrooms, one twin room and dedicated parking right outside.

The bathroom provides a combined bath and shower, and a washing machine and tumble-dryer add home-from-home convenience. Electric wall heaters keep every room cosy, and outside a large covered verandah with table, chairs and a child-safe gate invites relaxed alfresco moments with little ones or well-behaved dogs. Quality linen and towels are supplied, a cot is available on request, and the lodge maintains a strict no-smoking policy throughout.

Lamont Lodges lie almost opposite the entrance to Puck’s Glen, one of Scotland’s most atmospheric wooded gorges, where moss-draped cliffs and waterfalls create an enchanting walk. Two minutes north brings you to Benmore Botanical Garden, celebrated for its avenue of giant redwoods and global collection of rare plants. A little further on, Loch Eck provides opportunities for wild swimming, paddle-boarding and loch-side picnics, while mountain bikers can tackle forestry trails that climb high above the water for spectacular vistas.

Drive south to Dunoon for cafés, galleries and the Castle House Museum, or catch the passenger ferry across the Clyde to Gourock and onward rail links to Glasgow. Day trips might include Inveraray with its fairy-tale castle, the standing stones of Kilmartin Glen or the dramatic coastline of the Kyles of Bute. After each adventure, return to the peace of the forest and the comfort of your own private lodge.
