Comments from our Guestbook

We have enjoyed our stay here in this lovely cottage (Glenfruin Lodge/Cottage), despite the weather! It’s been very comfortable and has all we needed. We explored the area which is very beautiful and plenty to see and do.
Inveraray Castle is well worth a visit as was Hill House in Helensburgh and Luss Village.

Thank you for having us to share this super cottage.

What a brilliant location for exploring the surrounding region.  Definitely recommend the cruise at Luss to Inchcailloch, lovely walk steeped in history.

Thanks Alison, for a lovely, clean well equipped cosy cottage, absolutely perfect.

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.

A short stay (3 nights) in Crosskeys Cottage to visit a new baby in Helensburgh.

Very relaxed & comfortable.

Came to Crosskeys cottage for a few days away and a bit of a rest. What a perfect place to do just that! Love that Alison and Craig have all the switches clearly labelled – just made it feel like we could get to know the place quicker and relax.

Plenty to do around here but if you’re up for a lazy takeaway, you’d have to look quite far to beat KoolBa Indian takeaway in Helensburgh, just 3.5 miles along the road. And talking about being lazy – what a comfy bed! And the spa bath…. a fab treat!

Thank you so much, Alison and Craig, our wee break here really hit the spot.

Our 3rd stay at Crosskeys and again a lovely visit.

The Hill House was open this time and well worth a visit as is the ‘Tower’ if you have an evening to spare to go to the cinema

Lots of opportunity to cycle and walk – we found the other end of Glenfruin this time !!

Thank you again for your kindness

Loved our stay at Crosskeys! Felt very much at home during our time and could have stayed longer. Appreciated the welcoming touches in the kitchen and thoroughly enjoyed the huge bath tub! Great location to beautiful nearby spots.

Thank you Alison & Craig for a really wonderful stay at Crosskeys cottage. This wee cottage was perfect, very well equipped and very comfortable. We had wonderful weather all week and couldn’t have wished for a better part of the world to stay in.

Thanks to your tips Alison, we went to Luss, Loch Katerine, Oban, Loch Awe and Conic Hill (love a smaller walk with great views!). The dog loved the outdoor space too.

Best of luck with all the summer ahead and hopefully see you again!
