Comments from our Guestbook

We have had a really lovely time.  The weather has been exceptional.  Love the cottage, so comfortable and cosy, we have been very warm and our dogs have loved it too.

We have enjoyed taking the dogs for lots of little walks.  We have been to Luss, Crianlarich and went on a walk through the pine trees.  We didn’t venture very far but it was so beautiful, everywhere we turned there was another great view.

We will be telling family & friends about Crosskeys.

Had a great week here at Glenfruin Lodge.
Enjoyed seeing the birds and pheasants in the garden.
Heard the owls on a few nights, took day trips to Luss, Balloch Country Park, Loch Lomond shore including the Bird of Prey Centre and Sea life. Had a good few hours at the RSPB Centre and spotted a Red Squirrel, Tree creepers,Buzzards and Kites and Deer. Trip out on Loch Lomond on a lovely sunny day was great too. Final day was spent at Queen Elizabeth Forest Park and around the various lochs. Overall a great week away.

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.

We’ve enjoyed our stay in this comfortable and very attractive Cottage (Crosskeys).  We chose the location partly to revisit some of the places we know from long ago, as we youth hostelled in the Trossachs in the 1950’s.  Quite a lot of changes, but of course the scenery is just as splendid.  New to us was the woodland garden at Ardkinglas and can recommend a visit to see some wonderful trees; also taking the little road to Stronachlachar to enjoy the lovely views of Loch Katrine.  Even the wet days were happily spent in Glasgow – a fine city with lots of interest.

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.
