Fantastic experience. Well organised , relaxing and the views from the sauna were to die for. Definitely be back 

Fiona Coppell

We had the most magical morning at Monachyle Mhor enjoying the delights of the freezing water and toasty sauna. We will return next time the sauna takes up residence 😁

Sofia  Dahlstrom

This was a wonderful experience, the hosts were kind and caring in every way possible. We had an incredible time!!! The sauna was clean and spacious with a beautiful view and the loch was serene to dip in. Thank you!

Caroline Newson

Helen Carr

Unfortunately despite driving for half an hour along a single track road - nearly to the Monachyle Mhor hotel we couldn't find it. Apparently it had been moved due to flooding of the meadow but there were no signs. A refund would be great please:)

Five star experience swimming in the crystal clear waters of loch voil. Relaxing in the sauna with stunning views of the hills followed by delicious lunch in Monachyle Mhor. Heaven 

Cathy Hilman

Gorgeous setting - lovely sauna and host.
Would be great if they got it on the loch side but the burn provided a cold dook. 
The walk to the loch is not far and a lovely swim was had. 

Rowena Murray

Great experience. Excellent orientation from Lauren. Excellent communication from Monachyle Mhor when I first asked about sauna. Looking forward to the proposed more permanent structure — will be back with friends.

Emily Ballard

Such a great experience! Everything was great and stunning location…we’d definitely recommend going!

After some tips from Eliza, I had a lovely dip in Loch Voil with fab sauna right there. Incredible spot and a welcoming herbal tea on completion. Back to my room at Monachyle Mhor for a shower and marvellous breakfast. A complete reset achieved. Felt great thanks!

Rachel Keys

Fabulous experience.
We had such wonderful weather that it would have been impossible not to love it! Eliza was very friendly and laid back which added to the sense of freedom and relaxation about the whole experience. A superb spot by Loch Doine and made a great weekend even more special.

Jacqui Souter

It was the perfect thing to do after a wee dip or two in the loch.  With the water at 5 degrees it was blissful to get into the sauna! A perfect birthday treat.  Thank you

Mette  Wright

We had such a special time using the sauna then swimming in the Loch.  The sauna is situated so you look over the Loch it's absolutely stunning, the sauna is all ready when you arrive with fresh towels and nice and hot, the team at Rvival are friendly and incredible helpful, we couldn't recommend this experience highly enough it's a real treat and well worth the experience.

Alison Robinson

We had a fabulous time using the sauna and loch experience. Lovely hot sauna in a quaint little mobile shepherds hut followed by a few refreshing dips in a stunning and picturesque loch.  Super friendly guide took us round and explained everything necessary. Really enhanced our enjoyment of our overall time at the fantastic Monachyle Mhor. Would do it again in a heart beat

We had a fantastic pack pony adventure, and despite the unpredictable weather, it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, Eliza made our experience feel special. The pack ponies were patient and their calm demeanor was contagious, their gentle presence made the journey even more special.
