Absolutely brilliant, didn't want to leave. All information given prior to and at arrival was really thorough and welcoming.The lodge has everything you could need for a short stay and more.Little touches such as washing up liquid,toilet rolls,teabags are really helpful as you don't always think of these when packing to get away.Although there were houses and other lodges nearby, it was so peaceful and relaxing, helped by the log fire. Worth every penny and will recommend to anyone looking for a lovely weekend away. Traveller from Wishaw, GB

We recently stayed at Kinnaird woodland lodges. The view was absolutely amazing, it was so relaxing to sit and watch the sun go down. The perfect place to be if you are looking for a chilled out place to stay. Can't stress how thankful we are to them and would definitely recommend anyone to visit Kinnaird woodland lodges as the overall stay and service is amazing. Lisa-Marie_Cameron
