Comments from our Guestbook

Thank you Alison & Craig for another friendly welcome & a wonderful stay in cosy Crosskeys cottage.

We mostly dodged the rain to enjoy a few sections of the West Highland Way at a leisurely pace, making the most of the sunny spells we got!

There is nowhere better to retreat to than here, we enjoyed the spa bath, and a cosy place to read books and play board games.

Hope to see you again soon,

Very nice cottage (Glenfruin Lodge).  Lots to do even if wet!

Worth putting seeds/nuts out in the garden – lots of birds visit.

Glenfruin Lodge is a wonderful, cosy, comfortable and luxurious cottage.  We have had a fantastic 4 days here.  Glorious weather, cycling along Loch Lomond, fantastic scenery with autumn colours reflected everywhere.

Took a boat trip on the loch which was very relaxing.  We couldn’t have asked for a better holiday.

Hope to return in the future as so much more to see and do!

We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay here this week.  Your cottage is lovely and cosy – especially with the wood burner going in the evenings.

The area around here is stunningly beautiful with so many photo opportunities, and the autumn colours! – well why on earth would you need to travel abroad in search of such beauty!

Thank you so much Craig & Alison, for a lovely stay at Crosskeys Cottage. It is really very cosy, beautifully equipped and decor natural. The Cottage is ideally situated for getting around and we have really enjoyed our stay despite rain showers most of the week. Everything you need to feel at home – we are so relaxed.

Your countryside is marvelous. We loved Hill House in Helensburgh, Conic Hill at Balmaha, Inversnaid waterfall, Luss Village, Inverary Castle, three sisters of Glencoe, the West Highland Railway line and Portencross & Largs.

Best Wishes

We have enjoyed our time in Crosskeys.  The Cottage is full of character and history and the poor weather has meant we have spent more time than we would have liked indoors.  Having said that we manage to visit Balloch Castle Country Park, take a walk around the village of Luss and visit Helensburgh for shopping.  It has been a pleasure to see a different part of Scotland and we are now off to Skye for a week hoping the weather is kinder.

W e have had a most spectacular week, started off climbing Ben Nevis and have ached for the rest of the week
but well worth it for the views. Glencoe mountain range was exceptionally magical, chairlift to the top walk , climb the rest breath taking views. Highlight of our week was a Ferry from Oban, exploring the islands and accompanied by around 60 Dolphins magical. I think we have walked and climbed the surrounding area , it has been heaven.

The Cottage is a wonderful place to stay with everything you need and much more.
Thank you very much
