Really enjoyed our stay in the Lodge, which is very comfortable.

The scenery is fantastic and the walk along the ‘loop’ can be recommended, all set off with the very best of Scottish Weather.

We wanted a week away to relax and switch off and Glenfruin Lodge is perfect for that.  Lovely accommodation in a great location to explore this amazing part of Scotland.  Slept so well! I want 2 new mattresses and pillows when I get home!

Can recommend dinner at Fruin Farm – and you can walk there…

With thanks to Alison, Craig and Maisie x

To Craig & Alison,

Thank you very much for letting James, Lilly, Snoopy & I stay in your beautiful cottages.  We had a lovely week here and are sad to be going home!  We did some sight seeing whilst we were here and must say that Luss & Balloch Castle Country Park are lovely places to visit.

We will be recommending your cottage to friends & family looking to stay in the area, it is a great location for exploring the surrounding countryside.

Thanks again, Fliss & James, Lilly & Snoopy (our dogs).

Another wonderful week spent at Crosskeys Lodge. As before we combined walking and catching up with family (and even managed to get some work done..). Enjoyed the variety of walks to Criagendorran area and around the Loch. Becoming familiar with the John Muir Way and Three Lochs Way. Disappointed that the sea plane trip on the Loch was cancelled but we’ll do it next time.

Look forward to our next visit, Allison & Rob Noel (North Yorkshire)

25th September – 2nd October 2021

We spent our honeymoon here, in this beautiful little cottage (Crosskeys Cottage).
Loch Lomond is magical, especially when approached on foot via the RSPB site just down the road past Balloch. Stunning views and lots of wildlife to see. I’m still convinced the bird we saw behind the cottage was a Golden Eagle, way too large for a buzzard.

Thank you Alison & Craig for making the cottage so cosy and restful, we have loved every minute of our stay and hope to be back again in the future.

Best wishes from Rachel, Richard & Juno (woof)

21st – 25th March 2026

We had a lovely holiday at Glenfruin Lodge – such a beautiful area. We particularly enjoyed boat trips on Loch Lomond & Loch Katrine, we love Luss & Balmaha and had a tour round some of the Trossachs National Park.

A great place to stay!
