Snaptrip says

Tulchan Lodge is a well-received holiday rental, praised for its spaciousness, stunning views, and suitability for large groups and family gatherings. Guests appreciate the ample outdoor space, cosy kitchen with an Aga, and the thoughtful welcome hamper. While some minor maintenance issues and cleanliness concerns are noted, the overall experience is positive, with many guests expressing a desire to return.

Guests that stayed at this property said

The majority of guests found the property clean and well-prepared, with fresh beds and a welcoming atmosphere. However, some guests mentioned issues with flies, cobwebs, and dust, suggesting room for improvement in the thoroughness of cleaning, particularly in less obvious areas.

The location is highly praised for its beautiful views, peaceful countryside setting, and proximity to local attractions. The rural charm and lack of light pollution for stargazing are particularly appreciated. The access road's condition is a concern for some, but it does not significantly detract from the overall positive reception of the location.

Guests find the lodge comfortable, with cosy common areas, an Aga that warms the kitchen, and comfortable beds. Some guests noted issues with heating in certain rooms and heavy doors that could slam, but overall, the lodge is seen as a comfortable place for relaxation and socialising.

The facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-equipped kitchen, BBQ, and fire pit adding to the enjoyment. However, guests have reported maintenance issues such as blocked shower trays, problematic locks, and the need for better signage. The presence of a caretaker is noted positively for addressing concerns during stays.

The thoughtful touches, such as a welcome hamper and attentive housekeeping, are frequently mentioned and contribute to the positive experience. While these gestures are highly appreciated, it is politely noted that such gifts are a bonus and may not be a consistent feature for all stays.

    The kitchen was the only room for gatherings as drawing room was cold and absolutely smelt of smoke from the log burner, this was even before we lit it,when we did light it smoke would would enter the room therefore not being able to use as several of our guests are severe asthmatics,heating was very hard to work,after a call to the caretaker will finally got it on but radiators wasn't very hot, the main bedroom had no heating at all and was very cold.We had a power cut Christmas eve and yes I know these things happen but we had no candles or torches in the house therefore had to go out and buy some.We were looking for a hoover after no luck we contacted the caretaker again and was told it broke and they would get one out to us by the middle of the week only a small tv in kitchen area and no dvds for the children to watch,furniture was old and ripped and needs replacing ,wouldn't say it wasn't worth how much it cost. wouldn't recommend this property . Very unsatisfied with this property.

    The house was lovely and the garden was beautiful. The large kitchen/diner was very cosy with the Aga to warm it. We had to put the heating on for the other rooms though. Lounge was very comfortable and we enjoyed the log burner there. Everywhere was clean and fresh and we appreciated the wine and snacks that were provided. The location is absolutely stunning with great views all around the property. Our only complaint was that the shower in one of the ensuites wasn't usable, as the tray didn't drain.

    Furniture had not been moved. Shower tray on top floor was blocked. There were dead flies and cobwebs in many rooms. When we wiped tables before use, they were dirty. Beds were clean. Nice large dining room and table.
