About this property

ARE YOUR DATES ALREADY BOOKED? Check out Ruskin Lodge North, 6 Lamont Lodges instead.

The lodge is part of a small collection of traditional privately-owned log cabins which see guests returning year after year. Ruskin Lodge South was previously known as Puck's Lodge and is in an elevated, quiet and bright spot. It enjoys views of the surrounding forests and mountains.

The well-equipped kitchen has an alcove dining area which seats six. The living room has two giant picture-frame windows with views of the surrounding hills and woodland, and has a large TV, DVD player, hifi with radio, small library of books and board games.

Ruskin Lodge South is a great base to explore Cowal. It is surrounded by ancient woodland, close to Loch Eck and the Holy Loch and is just a short drive away from Dunoon and all the amenities the town has to offer. Bute, the Arrochar Alps, Loch Awe, Loch Etive, Tighnabruaich, Inveraray and Loch Lomond can be reached by car or ferry, offering great day trips and spectacular journeys through some of Scotland’s most romantic, scenic and dramatic landscapes.

Come and stay at Ruskin Lodge South, whether you are looking for a relaxing getaway with friends & family, a romantic holiday with your loved one, or a comfortable base to explore Cowal.

You can relax on a large, private, covered veranda and take in the surrounding forests and mountains. We regularly see red squirrels, many types of unusual birds and deer.

We look forward to welcoming you!
