Comments from our Guestbook

We enjoyed our stay here very much.  The Lodge is very comfortable and a perfect retreat.

Only the weather wasn’t very kind this week.

Had a lovely holiday.  This cottage (Glenfruin Lodge) was very sweet and perfect for our needs.  Fire is fantastic, kitchen and bathroom had everything we needed.  Disappointed we didn’t meet the cat though!

Recommend checking out the Sugar Boat (restaurant) in Helensburgh – absolutely amazing food, fantastic cocktails & lovely staff.

Thank you.  It was a great time, we enjoyed our honeymoon.  Alison & Craig are very friendly.  We visited Loch Lomond and Glen Fruin, the view was very stunning, even if it’s cloudy or rainy.

We have had a truly amazing and relaxing stay at Glenfuin Lodge. Thank you for the warm welcome and spotless cottage. Thanks to Alison’s recommendations we had a wonderful time climbing Conic Hill (stunning views!) and a great trip to the island of Inchcailloch. We also drove to Glencoe and were in awe of the breathtaking scenery.

Thanks again for providing such a cosy, comfortable and well-equipped base from which to explore Loch Lomond and into the Highlands. It has been the perfect way to spend and celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary.

We have had a lovely week despite our very teethy 18 month old!

So much to see and do in the area.  Perfect location here at Glenfruin Lodge.

Highlights (child friendly obviously!) have been Luss, Balmaha (amazingly peaceful beach to ourselves!) and lovely lunch at Balloch House Hotel (pie day) followed by great playground!

Lovely cottage – well furnished with all we needed for a week of quiet evenings in and comfy sofas!

Thanks for a great stay!

A lovely long weekend in a wonderful cottage (Glenfruin Lodge).  Great location and very cosy on rainy autumn nights.

Our 5 year old daughter especially loved the visit from ‘Maisie’ the cat and the ‘fairy stream’ at the bottom of the garden.

Glenfruin Lodge is a great place to stay & unwind for a few days. Spotlessly clean, the property has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Large private garden was great to sit in during the amazing weather I had. Close enough to shops & restaurants etc. in Helensburgh..Loch Lomond also very close with great walks & views. I highly recommend staying here & won’t hesitate to book again next time I’m in the area.
