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.

A wonderful stay at Crosskeys Cottage.  Cosy & warm, a great home away from home from which we could base our adventures.

Day 1 – A climb up Ben Lomond was worth the beautiful views, with the added bonus of snow, it was truly magical.

Day 2 – We didn’t see the ‘fairies’ at Doon Hill but a lovely walk nethertheless, we believe they watched us on route.  Followed by a stunning view of the Bracklin falls in Callander.

Day 3 – A walk round the beautiful town of Luss, shorter easier walks but great views of the Loch from Beinn Dubh, and around the woodland.  Great dog friendly eateries at the ‘Village visit’ in Luss and the evening at the Drovers Inn for fun & live music.

We can’t wait to come again to explore more around Loch Lomond.  Thank you for a relaxing stay.

Thank you, Alison & Craig for a wonderful stay. The Lodge is beautiful , warm and inviting.
We cannot wait to come back, we have had a wonderful week exploring and what a way to spend our first week in Scotland !! The views are out of this world, we had no bad experiences, even on rainy days.
We visited Glen Coe, Fort William, Ben Nevis and all the surrounding Loch Lomond areas.
We visited Glasgow for one night, just do not want to go home, our next trip will be for a longer period for sure!!
An excellent base to travel from.
Hope to see you soon

Great holiday in Loch Lomond in this lovely, cosy cottage (Crosskeys Cottage).  We’ve visited Inverary Castle, Loch Fyne (& restaurant), Stirling, Luss, Conic Hill, Glasgow and would recommend them all.  Helensburgh is a lovely town and we particularly enjoyed the Sugar Boat (restaurant) and the Tower Cinema.

Despite the cold, an ice cream from the local farm shop is well worth it…

Thanks for a great holiday,

Thank you for letting out Crosskeys Cottage, so comfy & cosy!  Great base to explore, thoroughly enjoyed our second visit to Scotland.

Will definitely recommend to family & friends.  Thanks for the logs too – great after a very cold & wet day in Glencoe.

Has to be one of the cosiest cottages we have stayed in.  We have had a fantastic time visiting what can only be described as a beautiful part of the world.  We sadly had to cut our holiday short, but I think we will be back again.

I sat in the garden with a cuppa and had a read of your guest book.  I so agree with everyone, the Lodge is a great place to stay.  Watch out for the wildlife first thing in the morning, I got some good photos.

I don’t really like cats but when you meet Shadow he wins you over.  He came and sat at the table, a good sun spot.

I came here to chill and switch off and I did, I had a great time and loved the bath!

Thank you so much for the little touches, the flowers made it feel like home.

Hope to be back again.
