Welcome to Crosskeys Loch Lomond

We had a lovely week here in a perfect arrayed little cottage.  We enjoyed the scenery around and above (from Ben Lomond).

There was even a day with sun 🙂  We finished our stay with a perfect dinner at Fruin Farm just across the road.

This was our first time visiting Scotland but it definitely won’t be the last!  We arrived at Glenfruin lodge after a 6.5 hour drive and instantly felt at home.

The Lodge is spacious yet cosy with everything we needed for our week-long stay.  The bed is wonderfully comfortable, kitchen well stocked and the HUGE whirlpool bath and log burner were God sends after a long day out in the Scottish Highlands!

During our stay we visited:

– Bird of Prey Centre at Balloch – great value and very interesting.

– Sweeney’s Cruises for a 1 hour cruise of Loch Lomond.

– RSPB nature reserve at Gartocharn (lovely walk).

– Lodge Visitors Centre at Aberfoyle for wonderful Red Squirrel viewing.

– Ben Lomond – still can’t believe we climbed an actual mountain! Amazing experience & breathtaking views.

We also treated ourselves to fish & chips from the ‘Wee Kelpie’ in Helensburgh (delicious) and splashed out on the 8 course tasting menu at the Michelin star ‘Martin Wishart’ restaurant at Cameron House (amazing for us foodies!).

All in all our first visit to this beautiful country has been unforgettable – we are already planning to come back next year!  Glenfruin Lodge will definitely be our 1st choice of accommodation.

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)

Had another lovely week at the Lodge again.  This time we went out to Inverary Jail and Castle, well worth a visit (keep your receipt from the Jail, do it first and when you go to the Castle you get 20% off your entry fee). Got some good purchases at Antartex Village and Lomond Shores, great for food and shopping.

We will be back as soon as we can.

Had a relaxing few days at Glenfruin Lodge. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, love the wood burning stove !
Had a walk down to Duck Bay and back on our second day – It was farther than we first thought !
Sore legs and hips for two days, The Lodge offered everything we needed and we were warmly welcomed by Alison.
We look forward to visiting again when we are next in the area.

What a brilliant cottage (Glenfruin Lodge) and a fab base for a week full of activities. I have to say what a lovely clean cottage this is and such friendly welcome.

A brilliant week’s weather, even the odd bit of sunshine which is always a bonus. Our first family holiday with our nearly 1 year old, and what a holiday it’s been. Thank you for the stay. If your looking for a place to eat not too far away, Balloch House Hotel is a much recommended place.

Thanks again, we may see you again soon.

After a week on the east coast of Scotland at Stonehaven we enjoyed our week here at Crosskeys.  The landscapes are beautiful and so different.  We enjoyed Glencoe, Inverary Castle and Loch Lomond of course.  Even though it was far, we went to Loch Ness to see Nessie but no….  our son of 11 was looking for it with his binoculars!  We really enjoyed the cruise and our visit to Culloden battlefield.

Hope we come back one day…. Stephanie, Laurent, Valerie et Jonathan Petit, The Ardennes, France.

Had a lovely stay in this marvellous cottage (Crosskeys Cottage ) which is well situated, with easy access to local shops and

amenities. Stunning views around not only Loch Lomond but the many places we visited during our week here.

Would recommend to anyone.
