Guests say

Samhchair Lodge is highly praised for its picturesque lakeside setting, cleanliness, and well-equipped nature. Guests enjoyed the hot tub, the welcome hamper, and the lodge's peaceful atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and exploration of the local area. While some minor issues with comfort and maintenance were mentioned, the overall experience was overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

Reviews consistently mention the lodge being clean and well-kept, with only a few isolated comments on specific cleanliness issues. The high standard of cleanliness contributed positively to the guests' experiences.

The location is frequently highlighted as stunning and picturesque, with the lodge being situated on a lake, contributing to a peaceful and relaxing holiday. The convenience for exploring the local area was also appreciated.

The majority of guests found the lodge comfortable, with special mentions of the beds and bedding. However, there were a few remarks about an uncomfortable double bed and squeaky headboard, which slightly affected the comfort score.

Facilities like the hot tub and well-equipped kitchen were praised, but some guests noted issues with maintenance such as the decking and heating. The presence of a welcome hamper was frequently appreciated.

The provision of a welcome hamper and the daily checking of the hot tub were seen as thoughtful touches. However, it should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

    The lodge has everything you need for a family to enjoy a nice holiday. The only thing that I noticed is the big spiders on the ceilings and the big bathroom not as clean on the floor. Also we had some meals at the restaurant and the meat is honestly “alive”. I don’t recommend the restaurant. Overall we had a good experience.
