2-Bedroom Hot Tub Cottage in Perthshire & Kinross-shire

This single-storey, architect-designed timber cabin overlooks the water from a peaceful woodland setting on the shores of Lough Oughter in County Cavan. With on-site forest trails, water activities, and wildlife-rich surroundings, the cabin is well suited to families seeking a nature-focused break.

Part of a development within Killykeen Forest Park, the site sits in Ireland's lake district, where an intricate network of lakes and rivers provides opportunities for fishing, kayaking, and boating from the on-site jetty. Boat trips reach the historic Clogh Oughter Castle and the uninhabited Inch Island, both set on Lough Oughter.

The surrounding lough complex is a designated Special Protection Area and Special Area of Conservation, supporting red squirrels, pine martens, otters, and over 47 recorded bird species. Drumlane Monastery, overlooking Lough Derrybrick, provides another rewarding day out beyond the forest.

This split-level cabin centres on an open-plan living and dining area with a well-equipped kitchen to one side. The living space is anchored by a wood burner and Smart TV, and large windows frame views across the water, filling the room with natural light.

A private balcony extends from the living area, offering a vantage point directly over the lake. The cabin's interior has been designed with real flair.

An interesting collection of books, games, and original artwork features throughout, giving every room a strong sense of character. The main bedroom has a king-size bed dressed with quality textiles, and carefully chosen art on the walls adds warmth.

A second bedroom is fitted with bunk beds, providing a dedicated sleeping space. The shower room, located alongside the bedrooms, has a shower and WC.

From the open-plan living space to the quieter sleeping quarters, the cabin feels thoughtfully composed, with each area reflecting the creative, nature-inspired spirit of its woodland setting. The cabin's enclosed private garden includes a terrace and BBQ area for al fresco dining, alongside a covered sitooterie that provides a sheltered spot to sit out in all conditions.
