Comments from our Guestbook

What a brilliant cottage (Glenfruin Lodge) and a fab base for a week full of activities. I have to say what a lovely clean cottage this is and such friendly welcome.

A brilliant week’s weather, even the odd bit of sunshine which is always a bonus. Our first family holiday with our nearly 1 year old, and what a holiday it’s been. Thank you for the stay. If your looking for a place to eat not too far away, Balloch House Hotel is a much recommended place.

Thanks again, we may see you again soon.

What a great little Cottage ! (Glenfruin Lodge) We really enjoyed our stay. Spent most of our time exploring the area and visiting wedding venues. Had a very tasty meal at Cucina in Balloch one evening – thanks for the recommendation.
Highlight was seeing the Red Squirrels in Queen Elizabeth Forest Park, which had eluded us on our last trip this way.
Thanks for a lovely stay hope to be back soon.

The stay in this nice Cottage of Craig and Alison’s was our “round up” of our Scotland holiday.

The cottage was located perfect for nature viewing and city viewing as well.  During our stay we visited Glasgow and Edinburgh and we also id walking in the Loch Lomond area.

Scotland is a great country and the place here at Crosskeys is great too.

No doubt that we will recommend Craig and Alison’s place to other German families who also plan to visit Scotland.

Many thanks for the stay and looking forward to meeting you again…. sometime…

28th September – 5th October 2013

We have enjoyed a fantastic week! This was our first visit to this part of Scotland, and we will definitely be coming back in the future.

The cottage is very comfortable, clean, and enjoys a fantastic location.  We would thoroughly recommend exploring Luss, Firkin Point and Balloch Country Park.

If you feel like venturing a little further afield, then a walk through Glen Coe is an absolute must!

A perfect place to spend a week, and somewhere we would look forward to staying again.

Thank you to Alison & Craig for a lovely stay at Glenfruin Lodge, very relaxing and enjoyable.

We have made the most of the lucky weather for January as most days were clear and sunny. We have seen some lovely views of the surrounding area, especially Luss, Balmaha (the Oak Tree Inn is definitely worth a visit, beautiful meal and very cosy).

We also visited Edinburgh and toured the castle with lots to see and experience. We decided to travel further afield taking in the magnificent views along the way to Fort William, Ben Nevis and Traigh beach which were amazing!
