A rare opportunity to purchase a genuine log cabin. Onida is the largest permissible new build cabin and one of only 50 log cabins set in 200 acres of woodlands and meadows by the shores of Loch Awe. Located near Dalavich village Onida is situated at the bottom of the open meadows very near the Lochside. There are also club house bar and restaurant facilities.

Onida means “The one I was searching for”.
Onida is the ideal log cabin you have always been searching for!

This beautiful, eco-friendly log cabin with electric hot tub is comfortable and spacious in an area of outstanding natural beauty. It has bags of traditional rustic charm and provides a true log cabin experience in pretty woodland surroundings. Situated on a large plot approximately 50 metres from the loch.

Onida has an open plan large living, dining and kitchen area, 2 x double bedrooms, twin sleeping loft (access via ladder) and family shower room. The double bedrooms are very large by log cabin standards one meter longer and a half metre wider than standard. The lounge is also an additional one metre longer.

The living / dining area has a vaulted ceiling, Freesat Satellite TV in lounge/2 x bedrooms, sofas & easy chairs, dining table for eight and a lovely wood burning stove. The front elevation is mainly glazed, to maximize the views, with French doors opening onto a raised veranda area overlooking the meadow.

The cabin is timber lined throughout with authentic Larch boarding, double glazed, highly insulated, well heated and suitable for all year-round use. It provides a balance of luxury and comfort while maintaining the character, charm and feel of a true log cabin in a peaceful woodland location.

The cabin is great as a vacation home or for vacation renting, or both.
The annual gross rent is very good. So, you ask the reason for sale?
I am planning to retire abroad and want to reduce my UK responsibility.

Onida is fully licensed to let under the Argyll and Bute Short Term Let licensing laws.
On taking ownership, providing you apply for your own letting license within six weeks, then letting can continue until your own license is granted.
The granting of your license will be a formality as Onida already has all the certification required such as 5-year electrical check, PAT testing etc.
I will supply all the documents plus help you through your licensing process if required.

If you desire you can also continue use of my vacation booking agent and there is a local company who supply cleaning and service the cabins.

Very economic monthly charge of only £72 for private water and sewage plus maintenance of the site. There is no council tax to pay if you are renting and register as a business!

In 2022 the hot tub was installed on a completely new large decking area measuring 7 x 5 metres to the side of the cabin. Plus, a pagoda was built to ensure all weather use of the hot tub. The French door decking area was removed and replaced with a smaller decking area with steps down to the hot tub. Next to the decking area is a BBQ area and a fire pit with rustic seating. The French doors and frames were also replaced.

All the furniture and contents are available for a reasonable cash offer.
