Luxury wee lodges in a very special setting. Why stay in a hotel bedroom, when you can stay in your very own small hotel!?! Beautiful cosy and romantic: wooden lodges set beside a river, among trees in parkland on a golf course. Each lodge has a private veranda reaching out over the water and most lodges have their own hot tub! Inside, these wee homes are packed with luxuries: en-suite facilities, small galley with microwave, etc, Nespresso coffee machine for a fantastic morning coffee, amazing Egyptian linens.

We visited riverbeds for our honeymoon. The lodge was adorable and although compact offers everything that you could need for a night. The hot tubs are a fantastic addition and with superb dining so close it was a perfect stop for us on our way from loch lomond to inverness.

Thank you so much for your review and glad you think our Riverbeds are adorable! We really are the best place to be based to go touring as Oban, Inverness and Skye are all great day trips! Hope to see you back at Woodlands soon. All the best, Lorna

Stayed here for my sisters birthday the beds are huge plenty of room and we were in the new riverbeds which gave us an inside seating area, most of our time was spent sitting in the lovely hot tub star gazing with our complimentary bottle of Prosecco.

The accommodation was lovely inside and out. The pod was beautifully and carefully furnished and the decking and hot tub perfect after a busy day. The breakfast which was delivered to our door was a perfect way to start the day. The staff too were extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful. We rented ebikes on-site and treated ourselves to a Segway tour too. Couldn’t fault anything about this stay. Thanks

Me & my partner have always wanted to say here & we finally did with our dog. It was perfect super cosy relaxing! The sound of the river is just amazing & the table outside with the private hot tub! I am always sceptical going to a lodge with a private hot tub when taking the dog as I am worried it is not secure & she can escape while we are in the hot tub however it was well covered all areas, and she could roam around without us worrying she could escape. Super cosy, has everything you need! We would absolutely love to visit again as it was perfect! Was also my partners birthday & I paid for the cake & decorations it was a really nice touch! If you are thinking about it definitely do it!! Only downside : is the late check in & super early check in. Should be extended…

We stayed for one night along our 13-day road trip through Scotland. The “wee lodges” were super cute and unique; our unit (#7) was clean and we greatly appreciated the private jacuzzi and complimentary iced bottle of Prosecco. However, our unit smelled a bit of mildew and of course I’ve never been a fan of combo shower/toilet/sink bathrooms (despite the shower water temp and pressure being great). There was a great amount of additional items to make guests feel at home. The personal outdoor bistro table / chairs and grill; sink, small fridge, microwave, toaster, and coffee maker; quite a bit for such a small space! The colored mood lighting was a cool little touch, but main light operation was a bit funky in that if you use the switch by the bed the lights work fine, but if…

Thank you for your feedback, it looks like you would have liked more space in your lodge and our wee riverbeds were just too wee! Next time your in Scotland maybe try out our lovely Seabeds which are much bigger and spacious and your have your separate shower and toilet! Yet it still has all the lovely extras and cool lighting. Hope to see you back again at Woodlands. All the best, Lorna

Our first getaway together since 2019 and what a getaway it was. The hot tub is hot, ALL of the time. I really think people take this for granted as what other lodge has a hot tub that is always hot? Maybe I don’t know enough about hot tubs, but lots I have viewed take a few hours to warm up. The chilled prosecco, bathrobes and late check out was a lovely touch when booking direct. And of course all of the complimentary treats. They didn’t last long! I especially loved the cookies. Everything has been thought about here; milk, tea towels, dog treats and even scissors. Sounds silly but when you bring your dog scissors are needed to open the packets of his (rather expensive) dog food! A true wee home away from home. The bed was so comfy (especially the pillows). We loved the…

Me and my partner had booked a night away here for his birthday, the location is stunning and beautiful views. We had originally booked one night but got a email offering us another night for 199 which we took and are grateful for. We were also offered a upgrade to a seabeds lodge but we turned it down as I wanted the pod on the river (which was a issue) as you will read. The CONS The pod is quite nice but there was a lot of issues, there was a broken light hanging out the roof, the panel in the toilet was hanging off we had to push it back on but it was easy knocked off when you tried to flush the toilet. They delivered breakfast with no milk so had no milk for coffee, they do provide orange juice in the mini fridge tho, also had a note in the basket saying check out at 10am…

We have now visited twice, and would have been a lot more if it wasn’t for covid. We have just came back yesterday and are looking to hopefully rebook again for near Christmas. We stayed at the seabed lodge and had the most amazing, relaxing time. The staff are so lovely and great service whenever we needed anything. The breakfast is delicious and can request what you want in your basket in the morning. The hot tubs just put the cherry on the top and the views from the seabeds are amazing. We were dreading coming home on Wednesday, and received a lovely email asking if we wanted another night stay for a very reasonable price which we couldn’t say no to. I cannot wait to go back, and a special mention to Lorna and Katie Y who helped us book our stay! X

The location and little hut was lovely, overlooking the river. We travelled here for our honeymoon, the cabin was great, it had two of everything so perfect for couples, homemade cookies and nice ambiance. The only downsides were the tv was not smart and couldn’t play Netflix and there were mosquitoes everywhere. The really disappointing thing was that the woman at reception was very rude to us when we were checking out. We had a 20 minute delay past checkout (10am), and she charged our card without a curtesy call to warn us. When we complained she told us that this is how it works and this ‘is not a hotel’.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review Ismail. We're glad to hear you had a magical honeymoon stay with us here at Woodlands. Creating special memories is just what we love to do! Unfortunately between the months of June and September we do get midges which can be a little annoying. Thankfully the complimentary midge spray in the lodge works wonders to keep them at bay and on days where they are particularly bad we give out fire pits as they don't seem to like the smoke. I wish we'd known you were having issues and we could have dropped one off to you. Our check out time is 10am and we give all guests until 10.30 before charging the late checkout fee of £11.95. If a guest lets us know with a phone call or email that they will be a little later we usually waive this fee. Our reception team do let you know on checkout if there will be any extra charges before making them to your card, so this was just her warning you that the charge would be made rather than making the charge. Either way, we'd be glad to welcome you back and to throw in a complimentary late checkout for your next stay as an apology for all of the confusion!
