Comments from our Guestbook

Crosskeys is such a pretty little cottage in a lovely, rural location. Cosy, warm and beautifully decorated and modernised.
Easy to explore the Loch Lomond area from here.
Alison and Craig were very kind and communicated really clearly. Will definitely be back.

What an amazing place perfect base for us and very welcoming.

Visited many areas of Loch Lomond, Luss, Balloch and love Balmaha. Walked up Conic Hill which was a challenge but amazing views across the loch. Ferry over to Inchcailloch island which was lovely giving different views of the loch (food at The Royal Oak was lovely).
Helensburgh was great to visit and amazing gelato at Vanilla and stroll along the front.

Perfect spot, will definitely revisit.

Wonderful holiday in a beautifully appointed cottage, everything you could possibly need and great hosts.
Sugar Boat in Helensburgh fab, Luss. Oban, Balmaha and Inveraray Castle all lovely.
Hill House in Helensburgh also well worth a visit.

Had a fabulous stay in Glenfuin Lodge over Christmas, our hosts were wonderful as always.

Cottage was full of Christmas cheer and all the home comforts you could want – stay just wasn’t long enough.

What a find this turned out to be – couldn’t believe our luck.

Well appointed, parking space for at least 2 cars & the cottage itself tastefully decorated with a super shower & spacious double bedroom.  I am also told that the sofa bed was very comfy too.  The piece de resistance though, the wood burner in the sitting room.  It was so cosy I’m surprised we left the cottage, but we checked out the Lomond Arms Hotel in Luss and the Duck Bay Marina near Balloch.

We also had a walk around the grounds of Cameron House Hotel and watched the sea plane head off to the Kyles of Bute.  We also watched the birds of prey demonstration that was presented at Cameron House too.

As we didn’t have to travel far, we had no issues with the weather or commuting on work days (for some!) and would recommend this pretty cottage with it’s great amenities and locale to everyone we meet.

Thanks a million – loved it!

Fabulous little cottage. Had a wonderful time walking in the mountains and exploring the sea lochs – Castle Carrick is beautiful!

Hopefully back again soon.

Thank you!

A lovely cottage with everything we needed.  Well placed to visit lots of places.

We even managed to visit friends in Edinburgh where the Botanic Gardens are well worth seeing and we would also recommend a cruise on Loch Lomond.

Look forward to coming back.

We’ve had a lovely time here – both exploring the area, and staying in by the fire and watching films.  This is such a lovely and comfortable cottage (Crosskeys) – feels like a home away from home.  You’ve provided everything we needed – including some gifts under the tree! We feel very welcomed.

We’ve managed to pack our few days full – a lovely, frosty walk in Arrochar (No. 15 in the book provided – definitely recommend!) followed by an accidental (but no less enjoyable) trip to Stirling to see the castle.

Today we went to Dumbarton Castle, then on to the Glengoyne Distillery – another definite! Followed by a stunning drive along the loch.

Thank you for such a lovely stay, I will definitely recommend you to friends and family, and will hope to be back to explore some more!

Thank you!

We’ve had a lovely few days at Glenfruin Lodge and we have been lucky with the weather considering the time of year.

We had a beautiful walk around the banks of Loch Katrine and a village walk around Luss which was very pretty.  We drove through dramatic views to Inverary and stopped at Loch Fyne for a delicious lunch of oysters, mussels and smoked salmon.  It has been wonderful to return to the comfortable and cosy lodge each evening.

Thank you for a lovely break, hopefully we’ll be back soon.

We have really enjoyed our stay in this lovely, comfortable cottage (Glenfruin Lodge/Cottage), which had everything we needed for a care free holiday. It is perfectly positioned for exploring – a super walk in Balloch Country Park and a sail on Loch Lomond, exploring the scenic routes down to Dunoon (great views at ‘Rest and be thankful’) and the absolutely stunning Hill House in Helensburgh.

Thank you for your hospitality!
