Had a fantastic week at this (Glenfruin Lodge) lovely cottage

Weather has been great ,perfect location for visiting the Highlands,Glen Coe and Fort William was an amazing day out.

We also had a great day on a boat trip exploring Loch Lomond,you can get off the boat and spend a few hours on the beach or do the island walk.

The boat sailed from Luss which is about 4 miles away. Another good place to visit is Maid of the loch,which is in Balloch

Here you can do water sports,shop or just relax and take in the beautiful views

Our first visit to Scotland and WOW what a great place. Glenfruin cottage is beautiful. Thank you for sharing it. It has everything needed for a great week away. We walked 52 miles in total with the biggest achievement ‘Ben Lomond’.

Thank you Craig & Alison, we’d love to stay again when we’re back up this way.

We loved our stay here at Crosskeys.  A nice cosy, warm cottage (Crosskeys Cottage).  Helpful owners.  A good base to local areas of interest.  Plenty to do and see.

Enjoyed our stay here and hope to return some day.

Another relaxing and fantastic stay in Glenfruin Lodge! The weather was glorious this year so lazy days were an easy option in the sunshine. A trip to Oban is always a highlight to get the gest Fish & Chips at the ‘Oban Fish & Chip Shop’ in George Street.

A day out on the Rosneath Peninsula is a great way to see the Argyll coast. A trip to Pitlochry has become a mandatory part of our holidays to visit Cafe Bibba and the Sweetie Shop! Balloch Country Park is well laid out and great location for local gentle walking.

A beautiful location and a great cottage – well done Alison & Craig for keeping things going and continuing to provide this ‘oasis’ during these difficult times.

At last we can travel! 3 nights here on route to northern highlands. Crosskeys Cottage is a very well appointed cosy cottage, well placed to visit the area – Balloch and Luss lovely.

Covid is still casting its shadow, but the friendliness and welcome here has been fab.

We hope that life will get back to normal, and once again we can enjoy a life without ‘2metres’ and masks.

Stay safe, and enjoy this wonderful cottage.

Thank you Craig & Alison for a great stay at the beautiful Glenfruin Lodge.

Everything was perfect for recuperation and relaxation after our stressful previous week.

Perfect central location for anyone visiting this part of Scotland.

Spotted the robin and eagle from the patio doors, but sorry not to meet Shaddow (your cat) who seems from previous comments to be quite a star….! maybe next time as I’m sure we’ll be back.
