Thanks to Jayne for providing a very comfortable and relaxing stay; great place to get away from it all. Thanks.
Lovely peaceful location with plenty to see and do, epscially if you love the wildlife in the area. Jane and Andrew put a lot of dedication into making this location so special for there customers.
This is probably the 4th or 5th time I've stayed at Mingarry Lodges now, still it will not be my last. Jayne and Andrew put in so much time and effort, not just for the people staying in the lodges, but for the wildlife around too. You will be treated to live video feeds of numerous birds and mamals during your stay, with up close encounters through the windows too.
The lodges are always clean, well laid out, warm and comfortable. Necessities are provided and there is a small shop just a few minutes drive down the road (if you don't fancy the drive to Fort William).
The surrounding areas are stunning with multiple walks and places to sit and relax (don't forget the Smidge). It is an easy drive from Castle Tioram, the Garbh Eilean Wildlife Hide and two ferry terminals to the Isle of Mull.
If you love watching wildlife in an unspoiled habitat, and need to escape the "busy life" for a while, then look no further.
Another amazing week at Mingarry lodges. We have stayed several times before and just love the scenery and wildlife to be found in the area. The lodges are so well equipped and comfortable. Thank you again Jayne and Andrew for a wonderful holiday.
Fabulous week at rooting yet again. It is so comfortable it is becoming almost home from
Home. There is everything you could wish for in the cabin. It is well loved and lovely to spend time in. Ardnamurchan as an area to spend time is unbelievable. My mum just loves it here. As do I. Thank you again Jayne and Andrew. It is amazing to share your space with you.
Myself and my partner stayed in hooting lodge for a week at the end of may and we were completely blown away. Jayne is an incredibly warm and welcoming host, who makes you feel very at ease and comfortable from the get go. The lodges are kept so tidy and comfortable, and are really well stocked with all the amenities you may need for your stay, as well as a really comprehensive amount of information about the surrounding area and ideas for days out. Jayne and Andrew really do go above and beyond. At one point I lost a screw in my glasses and Jayne even gave me a glasses repair kit to fix them!
In the lodges you are nestled in a lush green space, and if you are a wildlife lover this is definitely the spot for you. We were lucky enough to have lots of special sightings, and Jayne advise you on how best to see them! The lodges themselves are hooked up to wildlife cameras so you're never short of beautiful moments at any time of the day. The hosts are clearly big wildlife lovers and will get just as excited as you if you spot anything which is really lovely.
This area of the highlands is really breath-taking and remote, with lots of one-track roads which means less visitors so more peace and quiet! We went during half term which is always a risk but we had nothing to worry about, we had so much space to breathe and explore. From the lodge we visited the Ardnamuchan lighthouse, Ariundle Forest, Sanna bay (beautiful), singing sands, The Isle of Mull, Tioram Castle and many more places, all within an hours drive of the lodge. We're outdoorsy people but you could equally have a week in the lodge and be incredibly content. The lodges are equipped with games, books and many more activities to keep you occupied. There really is something for everyone here! I cannot fault it at all. Thanks so much to our hosts, we will most certainly be back!
What a wonderful stay, the lodge is so well equipped and in a lovely location. Can’t recommend enough.
What a wonderful week.
The walking was delightful amongst the primroses and bluebells.
The Lodge was well equipped and the complimentary items left for us were so generous. The wild life around the lodge and beyond was spectacular. We particularly enjoyed a boat trip with Staffa Tours to see the puffins.
Jayne is always on hand for a friendly chat or advice. This was our fifth visit so that says it all.
We had a lovely time at Mingarry lodges, really clean and comfortable. Extremely well equipped for all your needs. I was so pleased that we managed to see the pine Martin, Jayne puts a lot of effort in to looking after the wild life perhaps we could all learn something from her. We will definitely return for another stay and we have already recommended it to lots of friends.
This was our third visit. We discovered even more with the help of Jane’s recommendations. This place is perfect for nature lovers and walkers.
Andrew and Jayne are the perfect hosts with the perfect accommodation. The lodges are beautifully clean and comfortable. Every comfort has been thought of. The wildlife is amazing and the camera links are fascinating to watch. There is so much to do in the area and there are some great walks. We can't wait to return to Hooting Lodge - our favourite place
We had a lovely week in Mingarry Lodges as always. Tooting Lodge was so comfortable, cosy and clean and a brilliant bolthole when the weather turned. We have now visited the lodges at least five times and at varying times of the year and always hugely enjoyed the peace, tranquility and wonderful wildlife.
Excellent lodges. Excellent location. Jayne went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Thank you so much.
Couldn't fault these excellent lodges. Jayne is the perfect host, going above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Thank you

The standard is very high, jayne and Andrew have thought of everything to make your stay enjoyable, the information they provide, the welcome pack, the lovely comfy bed with high quality bedding, the well equiped kitchen, dvds, books, wildlife cameras you can watchbon tv, all 1st class! There is so much to do and see from mingarry and returning to such a comfortable lodge in such beautiful surroundings is perfect! Enjoy chilling out and watching the birds and squirrels feeding on the numerous feeders. We are always sad to leave, always feel so chilled out, we'll be back, that's for sure!
IHooting Lodge is the best equipped self catering accommodation we have stayed in - and we have stayed in many. The owner provided everything needed for a comfortable stay. She was fastidious in keeping the site well stocked with bird food to encourage numerous species and she provided a warm welcome and constant but not intrusive support. Very highly recommended.
Hooting Lodge is delightfully peaceful and makes a great base for exploring the Ardnamurchan Peninsula. The accommodation is comfortable and well equipped, with a warm and generous welcome from the hosts. Definitely recommend and keen to return
We had an amazing holiday,, the cleanliness of the cabin is outstanding, the wildlife is so beautiful to watch on camera, it is such a lovely area that you don't want to leave, the owners live next door and are so accommodating with any questions you might have. I would recommend it 100%. Try it I guarantee you will love it.
We had an amazing week staying at Mingarry Lodges. The lodge was very comfortable and Jayne was incredibly welcoming. So much to see and do and lots of wildlife. We are already thinking about when we will come back!
