Bracken Lodge

Welcome to Bracken Cottage – your forest escape on the shores of Loch Awe.

Set in Dalavich Forest Park, Bracken is a warm and inviting two-bedroom timber cabin designed for slowing down, recharging, and reconnecting. Step out onto the private deck and listen to the trees swaying above, take a woodland walk to the loch, or simply curl up by the fire with a board game.

This cosy retreat is perfect for:

🧘 Wellbeing escapes – forest bathing, yoga by the window, quiet mornings.

👨‍👩‍👧 Family getaways – muddy boots, nature adventures, evenings by the firepit.

🐾 Dog-friendly holidays – your four-legged companion is always welcome.

Whether you’re planning a weekend reset or a longer stay, Bracken Cottage offers the perfect balance of comfort and wilderness.
