About this property

A peaceful cottage set on a private drive.

South Lodge is a single storey self-catering holiday cottage nestled into the side of the wood. The cottage is in an elevated position looking over to the main estate house and the loch and hills beyond.

You enter the cottage up three steps to the porch where you can leave all your wellies and coats, then onto the landing which has two doors. The right hand door leads to a large comfortable bedroom with a super king sized four poster bed. The bedroom has fitted cupboards, a chest of drawers, dressing table and two double glazed windows looking out across the woods and lawns. The door to the left leads into the cosy, relaxing sitting room with log burner, smart free sat TV, docking station, comfy sofa and chair. The two double glazed windows also have beautiful views.

Off the far end of the sitting room is a door which leads to the kitchen and shower room.

The kitchen to the right is well equipped with fridge freezer, washing machine, electric cooker and microwave and all the equipment you would need to prepare food.

The shower room to the left has a large walk in Aqualisa shower with excellent pressure, basin and WC.

This charming cottage has its own garden laid mostly to lawn with a selection of garden furniture and a mobile Barbecue for summer evenings. If you are quiet you can spot the red squirrels feeding regularly off the cottages own bird table which we feed.

An open shed provides ideal storage for bikes or a roof box and room for off road parking.

There is also a large log shed and logs are provided free but some need to be split with the axe provided.

South Lodge has everything you would need and is a true ‘Home from Home’.

About the host

Hosted by Willa Wilson

Host profile image
I was born in Lochgilphead and have spent a large part of my childhood in Argyll. I am married to Angus and have three children. We took over the estate from my father in 2003. It is a fantastic way of life which we love to share with our guests and help them to see the best of the area. There is too much to do and see in a week but once you have been you will want to return!

Why they chose this property

I took over the estate from my father ten years ago and count myself so lucky to have the opportunity to care for the cottages and farming business in the most stunning part of the world. A perfect retreat to get away from the busy life that most of us lead. Ederline is a tonic to be consumed regardless of season.
