Comments from our Guestbook

We have had a lovely stay at Glenfruin Lodge – very comfortable.

The weather hasn’t been great, but we have been out & about – The Hill House, Loch Lomond and took the train to Glasgow. We had a lovely meal at the Sugar Boat in Helensburgh.

Thank you for the warm welcome on arrival and the treats in the kitchen. Barney enjoyed the garden (when it wasn’t raining!).

Had a lovely week, lovely walks, scenery is great.  Our dog (Flo) loved the swimming in the river.  Waitrose is a must for stocking up, Helensburgh is lovely to walk around and browse.

Perfect location to explore the area.

Fantastic holiday, thank you!

Love the accommodation and we picked the perfect week for the weather.

Birthday meal at Duck Bay was excellent.  The Wee Kelpie at Helensburgh has the best fish & chips ever!  Isle of Arran is also well worth a ferry trip.

Definitely be back… thanks again.

We have very much enjoyed the peaceful tranquillity of Glenfruin Lodge.  We know the area quite well as our daughter has lived in the area for four years.  It has been lovely to stay here while she and her family are having house renovations.

The Lodge is all we could ask for, spacious with airy ceilings, but beautifully cosy with under floor heating.  Our granddaughters particularly loved the spa bath!

Thank you very much for another great time in Loch Lomond – Crosskeys cottage is a super place: warm, comfortable, cosy and with the snow plough on the doorstep – snow is not a problem and from the cottage there is just such a fantastic lot of options.

We will be back again and maybe see Inverary in sunshine!  We also still have a bit more of the east shore of Loch Lomond to walk!

Many thanks again for all your kindness.

We have been on the hunt for our perfect Loch Lomond hidey hole since we outgrew our last one after our daughter was born : -and I think we have found it.

Our stay in the Lodge has been incredible, cosey, idylic and family friendly!
I’d recommend the John Muir Way walk from Crosskeys to Balloch, simply stunning and no rambling !!

We cant wait to head back up and hopefully we get the chance to build more snowmen !

Grateful for our wonderful & generous hosts – Craig & Alison , the Tunnocks were lovely !

A huge thank you to Alison & Craig for a great holiday.

The Lodge is so warm & cosy and felt like home.
