Comments from our Guestbook

We’ve enjoyed our stay at Crosskeys Cottage.  Visited Helensburgh, Balloch, Luss (it’s pretty), up to Tarbet (took ferry across to Inversnaid), then over to Stirling Castle (worth a visit), up to Inverary (castle & jail and nice coffee, shops etc) stopped off at Loch Fyne on way back (picked up some yummy salmon).

In terms of dining, we liked the boathouse at Cameron House Hotel, good food plus beautiful setting and the Duck Bay Hotel again fab setting.

Thank you for a lovely stay.  We have thoroughly enjoyed our first trip to Loch Lomond with our little girl Isla.  Made even more special by the fact she saw snow for the first time.

The Lodge was so family friendly and Isla who has not long started walking, loved pottering about and playing in the lovely bath.

We would recommend Cameron House for lunch (for a special treat).  It was expensive but well worth it.  We also had a lovely drink in the Loch Lomond Arms in Luss next to the cosy log burning fire.  We have had lots of lovely walks taking in the beauty of Loch Lomond, in particular the Argyll Forest.

We will definitely be back.

Thank you,

The cottage was the best Airbnb property that I have stayed in. The quality of the rooms, fixtures and fittings was exemplary. The owner Craig was knowledgable and very friendly. I will definitely use this cottage again. Location is great for Loch Lomond, Helensburgh and onwards to the Highlands. Great stay

A visit to Doune Castle is a must especially if you are a Monty Python fan.

OMG !!! I am so in love with this gorgeous cottage. We have had a brilliant week staying here, a few overcast days but mainly blue skies. Charlie , our Terrier has loved the walks especially Balloch Castle and along the beachfront in Helensburgh.
We have loved sitting on an evening just chilling and putting more logs on to the Log burner !!!

The stay in this nice Cottage of Craig and Alison’s was our “round up” of our Scotland holiday.

The cottage was located perfect for nature viewing and city viewing as well.  During our stay we visited Glasgow and Edinburgh and we also id walking in the Loch Lomond area.

Scotland is a great country and the place here at Crosskeys is great too.

No doubt that we will recommend Craig and Alison’s place to other German families who also plan to visit Scotland.

Many thanks for the stay and looking forward to meeting you again…. sometime…
