Welcome to Crosskeys Loch Lomond

We enjoyed our stay here very much.  The Lodge is very comfortable and a perfect retreat.

Only the weather wasn’t very kind this week.

We are the only ones who have come here from Germany.  It was a beautiful week here in Crosskeys.  The weather was great for Scottish conditions.  We greet the visitors from ‘Essel’ who will be here in July… ‘Hello!!

Best regards,

Brigitte and Stephane with Else and Ridiger, our dogs.

We’ve had a lovely week – thank you.

Lovely, comfortable and cosy cottage (Glenfruin Lodge).  The bed is enormous and very sleep inducing.  The weather has been very kind to us and we’ve both picked up some sun on our last day.

Recommend a visit to Balloch Castle Country Park – take a picnic if the weather’s good.  The views of Loch Lomond are lovely.  Glasgow by train from Helensburgh is good value £6.70 return & free parking too.  The Hill House is worth a visit also.  The Oak Inn in Balmaha does good food & beer.

We have had a wonderful week in this beautiful cottage (Crosskeys Cottage). It is in a super location for visiting many interesting areas. We particularly enjoyed the drive to Kilcreggen and the ferry over to Gourock (and, from there Dunoon).

The cottage itself is extrememly comfortable and is a pleasure to return to after a day exploring.

It’s also lovely to stay somewhere that is truly ‘dog-friendly’!

We’ve had a lovely week at Glenfruin Lodge.  The Lodge is beautiful and very well equipped.  The fire and whirlpool bath were both lovely added bonuses!

We visited Balloch and took a boat tour around the loch.  Luss is worth a visit as it is a beautiful place and there are some lovely walks.

Inverary is a lovely place for a day trip – the scenery on the way is breathtaking.  The castle and jail in the town are also worth the money.

Thank you for a lovely week, we will be back!

We have had such a great stay in the Cottage
Alison and Craig have thought of everything that guests may need during their stay.
Our dog Bruno also loved it, he has enjoyed all the lovely walks during the day and then chills out at night by the woodburner
along with us.

Thank you for having us

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!

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.
