Comments from our Guestbook

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’!

Lovely stay, we have enjoyed ourselves in this very pretty area.  Visited the Isle of Bute and all the lovely lochs. People very friendly.

The Cottage is very comfortable and well equipped, excellent base for exploring the area.  Lots of walks with our dogs.

Thank you very much.

We loved our stay at Craig and Alison’s cottage – a lovely place in such peaceful surroundings, in the perfect location for exploring in all directions around Loch Lomond. The cottage was very clean and modern, with the most amazing jacuzzi bath! The perfect base for our amazing staycation – would highly recommend!

We have loved staying at The Lodge. We had everything we needed & felt at home.
Can recommend Mira Mare in Helensburgh if you fancy Italian food !
Hope to be back again next time we are up again in Scotland.

The accommodation in the Lodge is light and spacious – also well equipped.  Unfortunately we did not have particularly good weather for our weeks break.  We would certainly recommend this as a place to stay especially in view of inclement weather.

Everything we needed was easily acquired from Helensburgh.  We visited local sites – Loch Lomond, Loch Fyne, Loch Katrine and surrounding villages.

Would love to come again – but hopefully with better weather – views would be enhanced considerably.

Many thanks,

Thank you for a memorable stay in your lovely Cottsge – home from home.
Its a perfevt location for exploring many parts of Argyll, The Natonal park, Balloch,Loch Lomond and The Trossachs along with a boat trip on Loch Katrine.
Helensburgh has been transformed witg its new Leisure Centre and swimming pool ang has free psrking.
The Kelpies snd Falkirk Wheel also made for a long day out but was well worth the experience.

Many thanks

We have just enjoyed a very special and memorable Christmas here at Glenfruin Lodge.

We found the accommodation more spacious and luxurious than we expected and the log burning fire added to that warm, cosy, Chrismassy feel.

We enjoyed walks around Loch Katrine and Balloch Castle and visited Luss to reminisce about our wedding there 6 months earlier!

Luss/Loch Lomond will always be special to us and having enjoyed such a lovely property our happy memories are increased further.

Thank you!
