Comments from our Guestbook

Thank you Alison and Craig, Crosskeys Cottage is beautiful and we’ve been so fortunate with the weather!

Places we went: Bracklinn Falls, Faerie Trail in Luss, Ben Lomond (got engaged at the top!!), Conic Hill at Balmaha, Birds of Prey Centre in Balloch, St Mocha Cafe and roamed around Helensburgh.

Overall we’ve had the best week possible.
Arrived as boyfriend and girlfriend and left as fiances – very special memories made.
Everything about this area is magical.

All the best, Kleasna & James, Aberdeen

“Congratulations to you both”, we’ve had the pleasure of hosting many honeymoon couples, but you are our first guests to get engaged whilst staying with us…. we couldn’t be more happy for you xx

Like the last people, this was a surprise from my husband.  I have family in Helensburgh and Stirling.  Had a wonderful week, weather was brilliant and the Lodge was really lovely.  In fact my sister in law and brother wanted to move in!

It was really nice catching up with my family and there was everything you could think of in the lodge, really loved it – in fact might even try and come back later in the year.

Thanks,

Thank you so much for everything – we had a great stay in Glenfruin Lodge we felt instantly at home.
We love the area around Loch Lomond so much, we’ll definitely come back.
For now, it’s back to Munich.

What a lovely welcome to the Lodge. It is so warm and cosy
and watching the Pheasants from the window in the morning
was an added bonus.
The owners are extremely helpful ,I loved the freshness of the bedroom.
My husband enjoyed the oval bath and Jacuzzi.

The Lodge is beautiful, well equipped and cosy – the whirlpool bath is great!

Although weather wasn’t on our side, we made the most of the week.  Inverary castle is a great trip, especially the gardens.  Half way through the week we climbed Ben Nevis, it was very cloudy on top so we couldn’t see anything but snow, but we feel proud to have reached the summit!

The ‘Village Rest’ in Luss is well worth a visit for dinner.  Great service and food.

If you go to Glen Coe, make sure you take a path to get away from the road, as it is magnificent.

Many thanks,

What an amazing place perfect base for us and very welcoming.

Visited many areas of Loch Lomond, Luss, Balloch and love Balmaha. Walked up Conic Hill which was a challenge but amazing views across the loch. Ferry over to Inchcailloch island which was lovely giving different views of the loch (food at The Royal Oak was lovely).
Helensburgh was great to visit and amazing gelato at Vanilla and stroll along the front.

Perfect spot, will definitely revisit.

and the weather was very nice as well (no rain)
Many Thanks
