You had me at Tunnocks !!
What a GORGEOUS little Cottage. Everything we needed and more.
Loved the heated floor in the bathroom !!!
So much to explore, some beautiful walking in Luss, Balloch Country Park was stunning.
A stroll along the promenade in Helensburgh was lovely. Highlight for me was the Hill House.
Our pup Bruce enjoyed all the fun smells and long walks.
Thanks for having us !!

Cosy, comfortable Crosskeys Cottage. Ideal for our short stay in Loch Lomond. Warm welcome from Craig and Alison. Highlights of our short stay – Conic Hill, its steep but worth it, amazing views. Duncryne (dumpling) trail, much less steep but also very nice views over the Loch. Aber shore RSPB trail to the Loch absolutely beautiful this time of year with the bluebells, a very peaceful walk. Lussfor a pleasant stroll and Helensburgh for sunset over the hills. Finally a coffee or glass of something at Duck Bay a perfect way to finish your day sitting onthe terrace watching the swifts under the pontoon and listening to the oyster catchers.

All of the above dog friendly and much enjoyed by us too.

Thanks, very much enjoyed our stay, Neil, Deb, Dooley & Davy (woof)

Have had a most enjoyable holiday here at Glen Fruin.  Weather has been absolutely perfect for touring around viewing the beautiful scenery around Loch Lomond and the surrounding countryside then returning in the evening to this comfortable cottage.

Thank you both for everything.

Crosskeys Cottage is a beautiful and well located cottage. Everything has been thought about carefully – the kitchen layout, heating, choice of rugs, wonderful. We ate very well and started our Scottish adventures into Munro bagging.

Previously we have run mountain trails in Wales, but we are now entering the big league.
First Munro – Ben Lomond (sunny and fabulous)
Second Munro – Ben More (white out snow storm and vertical ascent!!)

So we would love to revist to do Stob Beihin & Arrochar Alps.

Great space, handy washing machine. I would highly recommend a stay.

Thank you, Lindsay, Andy & Mabel (woof)

Wonderful cosy Cottage, well presented and everything you nee for the perfect stay.
Our Hosts Alison & Craig are warm and friendly, nothing too much trouble.

Crosskeys Cottage is ideally situated for Loch Lomond, Helensburgh , Stirling and Arrochar, including Oban, Fort William and Inveraray. The weather has been fantastic, although I don’t mind the rain, after all that is what makes Argyll & Bute so lush and green.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return
