Comments from our Guestbook

A lovely cottage with everything we needed.  Well placed to visit lots of places.

We even managed to visit friends in Edinburgh where the Botanic Gardens are well worth seeing and we would also recommend a cruise on Loch Lomond.

Look forward to coming back.

Glen Fruin is a delightful cottage, anything that we could need had already been thought of.
The views and local areas were stunning and the cottage was perfectly located.
We’ve had a very peaceful visit and would absolutely come again.
It surpassed all expectations.

Thank you,

Thank you Alison & Craig for the most splendid stay at your wonderful lodge.
We have had the most amazing week.The Lodge is so homely equipped with everything you need
for a home from home,if not better. My son studies at Strathclyde University and the Lodge was a
peaceful retreat for him. We traveled all over including visiting relatives in Bannockburn.
We are sad to leave this immaculate cottage and its two endearing hosts, we hope to come back in February.

Once again Craig & Alison made us feel very welcome in their superb Lodge.
We were comfortable and wanted for nothing. Trips out included the Transport Museum and Kelvingrove in Glasgow.
Both were superb and the children loved it.
Loch Tay is beautiful and the boys enjoyed the water trampoline and also the Quay in Luss and wakeboarding on Loch Lomond. The Arboretum at Arkinglass on the way to Inveraray was a great walk for both adults and children.
A trip to Stirling rounded off the week .

Thank you again for a great week

We’ve had a lovely stay in the Cottage, and have enjoyed lots of walks in the local area,
Balloch castle grounds and the Hill House to Rhu. We were very lucky with the weather and had a glorious day
for a trip on Loch Lomond.
Delighted to finally get to see the Hill House and can highly recommend the Lido fish and chip shop in Helensburgh.
