Melldalloch Holiday Lodges are hidden away in a quite nature reserve surrounded by the Kyles of Bute.
The Self Catering Lodges are fully furnished, including SKY TV, Kitchen with hob, microwave, coffee-maker, with Cot and Highchair available on request.
The Lodges consist of 2 bedrooms for 4 people, and 3 bedroom for 6 people, being ideal for boat crews, families, cyclists and walkers or anyone for that matter who is after a peaceful relaxing break or forced stopover.
Only 10 minute drive from Portavadie Marina.
We’ve been several times a year to Melldalloch for over 3 & a half years now, we’ve stayed in both Skye & Islay lodges, both of which have hot tubs.
The lodges are clean & well kept, the beds are comfy, the showers are powerful, the heating works well & the kitchen is well equipped for most eventualities.
It’s in a very pretty area surrounded by woodland. We’ve seen deer, a fox, Pine Martens, red squirrels, rabbits, frogs & lots of grouse in the area. There are only a handful of lodges for holiday rental so it’s a very quiet & peaceful place.
The owners live there & are very friendly, approachable & helpful if you need (or want) them to be but are in no way intrusive.
It’s a short walk to a very quiet beach from the lodges & there are other walks round about or if you’re happy to drive there are loads of places to explore.
The highlight of the holiday for us is without doubt the hot tub, we like to use it three times a day, just because we can! It’s powerful, it’s relaxing, it blasts your cares away, it’s soothing & clears away all of your ‘real life’ issues. There’s nothing better than pushing the bubble button & lying back & chilling out!
The owners clearly explain how the hot tub works & there’s information to follow regarding personal hygiene & hot tub cleaning. The chemicals in the tub are designed to catch any body lotions,deodorants,or anything else that might be on your skin. It can cause a scum line to form when you’re in the tub, it might not look very nice but it means that the chemicals are doing their job keeping the water in the tub clean. Just remember to clean the scum line off each time you use the tub! The hot tub water is cleaned & chemical checked every two days by the owners who are very knowledgeable about the process.
We would recommend Melldalloch to anyone who is looking for a relaxing holiday. Dogs are also very welcome.
We are already looking forward to our next visit 😊
