Welcome to Crosskeys Loch Lomond

Thank you for a lovely stay in this cosy cottage (Glenfruin Lodge).  It was a great starting point for countless adventures.

We also had the pleasure of meeting Maisie (the cat).

Dear Alison & Craig,

The first step we took into the Crosskeys Cottage, we felt welcome and at home.  The colours, the decorations just make you feel so cosy.

It was our first holiday/vacation as a family of four.  Travelling with two children under two, we thought might be a bit tricky, but turned out just fine.

We came here to visit friends of my husband who used to live in Helensburgh as a teenager.  So we visited them in Garelochhead, where you have a very nice view of the Naval Base at night.  The scenery all in all was just breath taking, whilst looking out the window when driving.

We went and took a walk beside the Clyde, went to Glasgow and went strolling around an Antique store.  We went through Glen Fruin, which was amazing, we took the kids to Stirling Castle and got to hear the history of James V, and his two wives and their daughter Mary, told from an actress in the clothes of the past.  The view of Wallace Monument and his history was also something that we found very interesting.

My husband and I decided we definitely want to come back here.

Thanks for everything.

Greetings from Germany, Rachel, Marcel, Emmelyn and Jacon

Had a great week at Glenfruin Lodge, lots of adventures. Ate at Fruin Farm Restaurant which is just the other side of the roundabout outside the cottage.  Couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

Beautiful cottage, thank you.

Enjoyed our stay in the Lodge.  We have had a lovely, relaxed time.  Made the most of the whirlpool bath and had our own spa experience.

Shame that the weather was not on our side, but made the most of being so close to Helensburgh and Luss.

This is the first time we have hired a cottage and will definitely do this again…

Thanks for a lovely stay.

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!

Thank you for your hospitality !
Crosskeys Holiday Cottage is a great place to spend time away from the noise of day to day life.
Was really cool during July’s heatwave, great bed, (and i usually struggle to sleep in new places)
We hope to come back.

Thank you once again Craig & Alison. This is our 3rd stay in Crosskeys Cottage with you and everything, once again, was perfect.

We did so many different things this year. We have walked over 35 miles in the 2 weeks, including Arthur’s Seat in Edinburgh (1,000ft). Conic hill at Balmaha and 2 local walks from the Hill House in Helensburgh.

Other highlights were Ardkinglas Woodland walk, a ferry from Luss to Inchacailloch Island, a meal at Loch Fyne restaurant, Dumbarton Castle and a ferry across to Inchmurrin Island to dine at the restaurant is worth doing. It is only 1.5 miles from here by foot! the ferry crossing is lovely.

Other good eating places are fish & chips and La Barca Tapas Bar in Helensburgh and Princess Rose Thai restaurant in Balloch. Oh we nearly forgot Blair Drummond safari park was a great day out too and to top it all only 1 day of rain in 2 weeks!

We will be back,

Sue & Tim, West Sussex
