I want to live here!
My party stayed at the other side of Loch Awe a couple of years ago and were keen to return to the area. Decided on Dalavich after driving past the village previously. The cabin is in a great location with amazing views. Not too far from the loch. The cabin was clean and functional. Great size for the 4 of us. Measures taken due to Covid19 and instructions clear in cabin. Had the most amazing weather! Come to Scotland at least once a year and never had weather as good! The aircon is a great touch, and having two bathrooms was great. For the price it is excellent. Definitely recommend!

Out of the way but beautiful.
The cabin is fantastic and the loch is beautiful. It's a long, winding drive to reach it and makes for lots of driving if excursions in the Oban area is your primary goal, but it is a lovely place to escape and the cabin is very comfortable.

Excellent week, except for the rain and midges!
Had a lovely week with friends, weather could have been better and midges were a bit annoying. Some good walks nearby. Avich falls were benefiting from the rain. Had a couple of good nights in the bar with the motorcycle rally guys. Hope to do it again next year.

Lovely place to stay
We really enjoyed our stay in this cabin. Sofa bed was really comfy and we had plenty of space amoungst the three bedrooms. Really enjoyed having a balcony and a patch of grass at the back of the cabin. Was very close to the Loch which was nice. The highlight for us was being able to watch the stars through the big window from the sofa in the evenings. Was also well catered with 3 TVs, some DVDs and board games!

2 weeks in the green
We all really enjoyed staying in Dalavich. Pretty nice and green area to relax and forget about everything. With 6 people, it was a little bit tight after a while, but still a really nice place to be. Hope to be there again as soon as possible! The house with all it wood let it feel warm even in the chilly scottish nights :)

Sehr gemütliches Haus ( top Ausgestattet) und traumhafte Lage (toller Blick) nur mit 5 Personen und 3 Hunden etwas zu klein.
