We have had a fantastic stay at Glenfruin Lodge.  Absolutely everything has been thought of to make it a comfortable stay.

The location is excellent for exploring.  A big thank you to Craig and Alison for the gifts & card under the beautifully decorated christmas tree – a lovely touch.  Perfection at its finest

Lovely cottage (Glenfruin Lodge) in a lovely area.  Some very nice restaurants in Helensburgh – Masala Twist, for me the best Nan ever, La Barca for authentic Spanish tapas and the Wee Kelpie for wonderful fish & chips!

Had a trip on the West Highland Railway to Oban which was very spectacular as was the return by bus due to the Scotrail strike!  Had trips to Luss & Balloch on Loch Lomond and enjoyed a visit to the Hill House.

Very enjoyable.

We have had a lovely week here at Glenfruin Lodge.  The Lodge is well furnished and cosy and the whirlpool bath and giant bed were a welcoming relief after a days climbing or cycling.

The Lodge is in a great location for exploring (we visited Stirling, Ben Lomond, Luss and Balloch) but remote enough to feel like you could be in the middle of nowhere…

A lovely relaxing week and would love to come back.

Glenfruin Lodge is a very well appointed and spotlessly clean cottage!  A lovely place to stay – would recommend highly.

Thank you,

Have had a most enjoyable holiday here at Glen Fruin.  Weather has been absolutely perfect for touring around viewing the beautiful scenery around Loch Lomond and the surrounding countryside then returning in the evening to this comfortable cottage.

Thank you both for everything.

Another enjoyable stay at Glenfruin Lodge.  The weather could of been kinder but the views as always from the lochs make the visit worthwhile.

3rd – 10th September 2016

We booked ‘Glenfruin Lodge’ to escape our hectic lives and relax – this cottage was perfect for us!  Loved coming back here each evening and getting the log fire burning, very relaxing indeed.

We found this location perfect for visiting this area – we headed up to Oban, Inverary and various places along the way to Stirling.  Did a few walks around Loch Lomond.  A drive up the A817 (Loch Lomond – Helensburgh) is a must – most definately the best scenery!  We spent an afternoon Geocaching nearby through ‘Balmaha Muir’ forest – again a lovely view at the top.  If anyone fancies fish and chip supper, then we recommend ‘The wee kelpie’ in Helensburgh!

Overall, a beautiful cottage (great attention to detail, especially the shower!), thank you for making us so welcome – we’ll be sure to come back!
