"Our Loch Tay Highland Lodge Park review: Lodge was great but few hooks and self would help"
"We recently stayed at this charming cottage on a working farm and it was such a peaceful escape. The owners, Robert and Sharon, are lovely and very welcoming. The place itself is really spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen and bathroom. The bed was super comfy and the garden was perfect for our dog-completely secluded and safe, with nice furniture. There are plenty of walks nearby and we loved exploring the area. Thaxted has some cracking restaurants, especially The Star and The Maypole. The Swan and Indian are worth a mention too. Definitely a place wed recommend!"
"We loved this cosy cottage, especially the hot tub and log burner. The hosts were lovely, super friendly. Peaceful spot, perfect for a quick getaway!"
"I cannot comment too much on the facilities as we went out of season however from what we seen i would definitely recommend. The bed had put a hole into the lodge floor but this cant be helped it was just wear and tear."
"Really enjoyed staying here, its so calm and perfect for dogs with that secure garden."
"Really enjoyed our stay, the cabin was spotless and gorgeous. The log fire was fantastic and the outdoor fire pit added a lovely touch. Great value overall!"
"Cabin beautiful very clean just the mattress wasnt very good. Log fire brilliant buy all you need from reception.Also a fire pit outside of the cabin."
"We loved this cosy little place! The hot tub and log burner made it extra special. Hosts were lovely, super peaceful. Definitely coming back soon!"
"Brilliant location. Lodge was ok. Freezing cold when we arrived as no heating on.. electric charging was a massive plus but walking back down on a night was very dark to torch recommended."
"We had an amazing stay! The cottage was spotless, well-equipped and the little extras made it extra special. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway."
"We stayed here recently and really enjoyed the place - its lovely and the room was super clean. However, the shower was a bit disappointing; its fed from an electric heater under the sink, so the water heat was inconsistent. Also, the kitchen only had a smoke alarm in the bedroom, which unfortunately went faulty during the night, waking us up quite suddenly. Bit of a letdown, but overall, its a decent spot."
"We had a fantastic stay at this lovely place, tucked away in such a peaceful spot. The owners were genuinely friendly and always ready to help, yet they respected our privacy perfectly. The hot tub was a real treat after a long cycle day - so relaxing! Only thing to note is that the cottage is quite close to Stansted's flight path, so you do get quite a bit of aircraft noise. It didnt bother us much after a while, but it might be a consideration if you're sensitive to noise. Overall, a great find!"
"We booked this place for a dog walking break and it was just what we needed. Lovely accommodation, plenty of nearby pubs and restaurants and endless fields for walks. The dog loved it and wouldnt get in the car to leave!"
"We had such a lovely stay in this charming little place. The setting is really peaceful and private, perfect for unwinding. The owners were super friendly and always there if we needed anything, but it never felt like they were intruding. The hot tub was a real highlight after a long cycle day! Only thing to note is that the cottage is quite close to Stansteds flight path, so you do get quite a bit of aircraft noise. It didnt spoil our trip, but if youre really sensitive, its worth considering. Overall, a fab spot!"
"We had such a lovely stay in this charming little cottage. The location is really private and peaceful, perfect for unwinding. The owners were super friendly and helpful, always nearby if we needed anything but respecting our privacy. The hot tub was a real highlight after a long day of cycling - bliss! Only thing to note is that its right under Stansteds flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It didnt bother us much once we got used to it, but if youre sensitive to noise, its something to consider. All in all, a great find!"
"Really enjoyed our stay here! The place was spotless and peaceful, hosts were super friendly, hot tub was a highlight, perfect for us and our dog. Would come back!"
"We had a wonderful stay at this charming little spot. The setting is stunning and really private, which we loved. The owners are super friendly and always ready to help if needed, but you still feel like you have your own space. The hot tub was a real treat after cycling all day! Only thing to note is that the cottage is quite close to Stansteds flight path, so theres quite a bit of noise from planes. It didnt bother us much once we got used to it, but its worth mentioning if noise bugs you. Overall, a lovely place!"
"Nice stay overall, smooth check-in, on-site amenities were handy and the scenery was stunning with great weather!"
"We needed a quick escape for dog walking and this place was spot on. Lovely cosy accommodation, plenty of nearby pubs and eateries, plus endless fields and trails. The dog loved it, didnt want to leave!"
"We stayed here for a week in July with our two mini daschunds and honestly, the dogs loved it! They made plenty of new friends in the charming village of Thaxted. The cottage itself is really lovely, especially the hot tub - perfect after those scorching hot days, since the water was cooled and super refreshing. The hosts were warm and friendly, it was nice to see them taking the dogs to the fields every day. Sure, it's near Stansted's flight path, but I quite enjoyed watching the planes land. Would definitely stay again!"
"We had such a lovely weekend here! The place was just perfect for what we needed and were already planning to return. Our dogs really enjoyed the garden and the underfloor heating-Luna was wagging her tail so much she strained it! Honestly, it made the whole trip even better. Definitely a place wed recommend to others!"
"The owners really covered all bases, making our stay super relaxing. We had such a great time and will tell friends!"
"We really enjoyed our stay at this charming cottage. Perfect for some peaceful downtime, though planes at night can be a bit noisy. The hot tub was a treat!"
"Great staff, lovely spot"
"We had such a lovely stay! The owners were genuinely friendly and went out of their way to help us. The cottage itself is adorable, with its charming half-timbered style and a really good shower - not always easy to find! The living space felt cosy and the bed was super comfy. Parking right next to the cottage was a bonus and it was spotlessly clean. Plus, plenty of nice walks around Thaxted, which made the trip even better. Would definitely recommend!"
"We really enjoyed our visit, the grounds were lovely and walking with the dogs was perfect."

A sixteenth-century Perthshire castle, once home to Bonnie Prince Charlie's host clan, with rooms you can explore freely.
Castle Menzies is a sixteenth-century Z-plan castle at Weem, near Aberfeldy. It was the seat of the chiefs of Clan Menzies for over 500 years and shows the shift from rugged Highland fortress to more comfortable mansion house. Bonnie Prince Charlie rested here on his way to Culloden, and Duleep Singh, last maharajah of the Sikh Empire, lived here in the 1850s.
Tip: There are steep stone steps, spiral staircases and uneven floors, so wear sensible shoes. The ground-floor film shows the upper floors if stairs are difficult.

A category A listed church at Loch Awe, built from local stone and granite boulders from Ben Cruachan.
St Conan's Kirk stands in the village of Loch Awe in Argyll and Bute. Designed by Walter Douglas Campbell, it was built in the 1880s, extended in the early 1900s and consecrated in 1930. It is a category A listed building, and a 2016 Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland public poll placed it among the Top 10 Scottish buildings of the last 100 years.
Tip: St Conan's Tower is only half a mile away, so you can see both in one outing.
