Highland Games

We stayed for an extended week in order to see Dunoon , and take in the Highland Games. The cabin was very nice. The area was very quiet with plenty of nature around. We would definitely stay here again.

Best terrace ever!

The house had a very spacious living area/kitchen.with lots of rugs and comfortable furniture. The terrace/balcony overlooking the sea was really big, and sheltered, even when it was raining. Comfy seats there too.The bedrooms are tight. I had thought there was a king sized bed, but there is a double in each room, so we had one each.Really relaxing stay

Lovely stay

Had a great time in Dolphin Run. Very clean, and had everything we needed. Enjoyed taking the kids up to the activity centre at Hunter’s Quay and booked a few of the activities as members of the public. We needed reliable wifi in case we needed to work from home, and we were not disappointed. I imagine this lodge would be even better in the better weather. It has a lovely deck with ample seating for soaking up the fabulous view. We hope to return soon!

Property was comfortable and attractively decorated. Double bedrooms were spacious and beds comfy. Beautiful view from the lodge and sited in quiet peaceful area. Saw a deer. Communication with owner somewhat challenging, and we had to initiate the day before re. access etc. Would be helpful to have additional information re heating and cooker operation a welcome pack would have been nice heating was not on and took 24 hours to heat up once we got in

Had a lovely long weekend at the lodge. Very comfortable, clean and all you need provided. Kids loved the shower. Weather was on our side, so it was lovely to sit on the decking and relax. Would highly recommend this lodge to family and friends.

Perfect break

Our family including 2 teenagers and small dog stayed at the lodge for 4 nights. We were so impressed at how clean the place was and is clearly a home that gets well looked after. The location was so peaceful with fantastic views of the loch and the deck to the front is not overlooked by any of the other lodges which can sometimes be an issue for people at this type of rental. From the excellent WiFi connection to the lovely decor and fixtures and fittings, dolphin lodge is a real credit to the owners and somewhere we hope to return in the future.
