Comments from our Guestbook

We have loved staying at The Lodge. We had everything we needed & felt at home.
Can recommend Mira Mare in Helensburgh if you fancy Italian food !
Hope to be back again next time we are up again in Scotland.

Thank you Alison & Craig for your warm welcome to your beautiful cottage. We loved the way you have refurbished it, so sympathetically. So tastefully decorated and stocked with everything we needed. It was an ideal base for us to visit family and my husband’s childhood haunts. We enjoyed the Antartex Village in Alexandria.
Unfortunately the weather hasn’t been good but we made the best of it.

Thank you again,

Have had a lovely time at your Lodge which is wonderful.

Enjoyed the evening sunshine out the French doors and a few visits from Shadow, also the bird song & Robin.

Have been not too far from the area but loved what we have seen apart from the Antartex Village which is a waste of time!

Lovely lunch at the Duck Bay and beautiful surroundings.  The sea life centre was very good.

Hope to return sometime….

Peace & blessings, Lorna & Phyllis, Carnoustie

A perfect place from which to explore this area of Scotland…… a perfect place to rest your head…… spotlessly clean……

fully equipped with perfect hosts. The theme is correct – what more can you ask for !!

CrossKeys was super clean, cosy and comfortable. We felt very much at home. A great cottage for a Winter rest, and a good location to explore the scenic areas around Loch Lomond. We really appreciated the festive touches too.

Our first visit to Scotland, travelling from Kent to see our son who has moved to Saltcoats.  We had one beautiful sunny day visiting all around Loch Lomond, saw some waterfalls.  We spent a day in Saltcoats – wet and cold, but we imagine the beach to be lovely in the summer.  A lovely cosy cottage (Crosskeys Cottage), everything you need.

Would definitely visit again.

Regards, Kevin & Gui Tieran, Kent

Crosskeys cottage was amazing.  It had everything we needed and more.  Got to see so much of Loch Lomond and got a great night sleep!  Be back again.
