Comments from our Guestbook

Lovely cottage (Glenfruin Lodge), very comfortable and well placed for visiting the areas around it.

Enjoyed a speedboat trip on the Loch and a drive to Inveraray.

Many thanks to our hosts.

We’ve loved our stay, celebrating Hogmanay at Crosskeys Cottage!

Our arrival on a dark, damp evening, after a 7 hour journey was made extra special by the wee surprise left for us under the Christmas tree – Thank You!!

By the time we get home, we will have travelled 1,000 miles! but we saw and did loads…..

On one of the days we climbed Conic Hill and drove along the road that stops at Inversnaid – ‘the’ best drive of the week – spotted mountain goats, owls and deer and even a stag! The views across the loch here are amazing and the falls at the end make the 15 mile adventure worth it.

We’ve had the most amazing stay here.  The cottage is beautiful, cosy, warm and comfortable and we’ll be recommending it to our friends.

Many thanks, hope to see you again sometime….

Lovely cosy lodge – amazing to have a wood burning stove and whirpool bath in one place!!

Really enjoyed our stay (went too quick though) – would recommend Loch Katrine very remote and beautiful.  For food and good ale go to the pub (Loch Lomond Arms) in Luss – try the Haggis dish and sticky toffee pudding plus a few whiskies!

Thanks for a lovely stay.  See you again hopefully.

Despite ‘challenging’ weather, we’ve had a wonderful few days in this peaceful, well-appointed and well-located cottage (Glenfruin Lodge).

Spent a tranquil evening on the deserted shore of Milavvochy Bay/Balmaha.  Hill House is superb.  Enjoyed the scenery of the Trossachs and a stroll around Callander.

The ‘Tullie’ in Balloch offers good value, unpretentious food.  The Boathouse at Cameron House is recommended.

A family wedding at Ross Priory brought us here and, hopefully, we’ll be back.

Finding Glenfruin Lodge was easy and on entering it we were delighted with the high standard that met us!

The bath is to die for and every evening soaking in a bubbling spa bath was bliss.

We have been lucky with the weather and had some great days out.  Our visit to Loch Ness was well worth the long journey and the views through Glencoe and Ben Nevis spectacular!  Our cruise on the loch was lovely, but unfortunately no sightings of Nessie!

Stirling Castle is well worth a visit and I personally think it’s better than Edinburgh Castle!

A cruise on Loch Lomond is lovely & take a walk through Balloch Castle Country park – the views are amazing.

As you can tell we loved it here and would definitely return.

Thank you, a well appointed cottage ideally situated for visiting surrounding area.

Helensburgh very nice with good shops and a good Sunday dinner at the Commodore Hotel.

Beautiful scenic rides out, bluebells everywhere !!  Benmore Garden and Dunoon well worth a visit.

Thank you for a lovely relaxing stay.  Can highly recommend Inchcailloch Island as a visit for a forest walk.

We agree the cottage is a perfect base for exploring.  Excellent provision for visitors – and the dog! (in Crosskeys Cottage).

Had a great stay with very mixed weather. Had everything we needed in the Lodge, could not have asked for more.
Recommend eating out at The Riverhill Courtyard in Helensburgh. We enjoyed many walks including Conic Hill, also liked The Hill House and Inveraray Castle. Luss is a beautiful village busy by day but we had the beach and the jetty to ourselves in the evening. Callandar and the Crag walk including a visit to the falls was also memorable.

Thank you
