We had a great week at portnellan with the most wonderfull weather of the world. When we arrived it was already 23 degrees and it stayed like that for the whole week. Including sunshine and bleu skies! The lodge was very clean and comfortable, our kids had a great stay as well, they could do a lot of outdoor things... more

A beautiful spot to relax and enjoy overlooking the loch from your own balcony. Row a boat on the loch (no charge), cycle through the fields or walk the adjacent hill (Ben More) before unwinding in your own spa bath and sauna. Magnificent. more

Booked in for a couple of nights to get away from the office and get some long outstanding report work done. Wifi connection was very handy.

The service is excellent. The place is hosted by 'Cameron' who is is very friendly and helpfull.

The breathtaking scenery is worth coming for itself but the comfortable and well-appointed accommodation makes the stay all the more enjoyable. We stayed in Ghillies lodge, overlooking the rest of the estate, and I cannot fault the facilities - the sauna being a particular... more

If you love Scotland we would recommend staying at Portnellan Highland Lodges. My father, who is very picky about where he goes on holiday, found the Portnellan Estate on line about 6 years ago and we have been back many times since. We always stay in Ghillies and absolutely love it. Elaine and Cameron are fantastic hosts and do everything... more

Self-catering ain't for everyone, but if it's for you, so is Portnellan. It's set in a stunning glen, with views in every direction, and the accommodation is really impressive. We were very warmly welcomed on our arrival, and the moment we set eyes on our lodge we knew we should have booked for two weeks. Comfy beds, lots of hot... more
