Burnside Lodge receives high praise for its stunning setting, cleanliness, and wildlife encounters. Guests appreciate the comfortable, well-equipped accommodation and the peaceful atmosphere, making it an ideal retreat for relaxation and enjoying nature. While some minor issues with beds and maintenance are noted, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing a desire to return.
Reviews consistently mention the lodge being 'spotlessly clean' and 'immaculately clean', indicating a very high standard of cleanliness that guests appreciate.
The location is celebrated for its beautiful, peaceful setting with wildlife and scenic views. Some guests mention the distance from town and roadworks as minor inconveniences, but the overall sentiment is that the location is fantastic.
The lodge is generally found to be comfortable with quality linens and powerful showers. However, several guests mention the beds being hard or uncomfortable, which affects the score slightly.
Facilities are well-regarded, with the lodge being described as well-equipped. Some maintenance issues such as a non-working dryer and a hole in the decking are noted, but these do not seem to detract significantly from the overall experience.
While guests are pleased with the lodge and its amenities, there is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the owners. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.
Nestled in the hills between Tummel Bridge and Aberfeldy on the road to Schiehallion you will find Glengoulandie Country Lodges. The lodge is set within a group of privately-owned lodges in the Glengoulandie Country Park in a quiet rural location. This is Outlander country; the location was often used when filming the famous TV Series. The red deer roam freely down to the lodge. The comfortable log cabin style lodge is spacious and accommodating with fantastic views out towards the loch and the hills. It is set in a quiet corner of the park with a small burn running alongside. Beautifully furnished throughout, to provide contemporary accommodation, this is the ideal location for a family of six or group of friends wanting to enjoy a holiday together and experience the beauty of the central highlands. Through the front door you will step into a large welcoming entrance hall where you can leave your outdoor clothes before entering the large open-plan living area. With high wooden ceilings large windows and patio doors, this is a light room with all the characteristics of a stylish lodge. You will find comfy sofas for relaxing at the end of a busy day, a dining table to enjoy a meal with family or friends, a breakfast bar around the well-equipped fitted kitchen area. There are patio doors that open out onto a decked area overlooking the small loch and hillside. The ideal place to enjoy morning coffee or watch the sun set behind the hills with a glass of wine on a warm evening. The accommodation is all on one level with plenty of room for everyone. There are three bedrooms all with access to a bathroom. Glengoulandie is situated on a single-track road with passing places between Tummel Bridge and Aberfeldy. Looking out towards the mountain Dun Beag where the deer graze on the hillside near to the lodge. Drive into the market town of Aberfeldy where you will discover, Dewar’s Distillery, The Watermill bookshop, The Birks Cinema, a 9 hole golf course and the famous waterfall walk “The Birks of Aberfeldy”. Close by visit Weem Castle, take a Highland Safari on land or loch to discover native wildlife, visit the red deer, pan for gold or step back in time at the Crannog Centre.
