Welcome to Crosskeys Loch Lomond

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.

Lovely Cottage, lovely host and the scenery is beautiful around here.
Cottage was cosy, warm and especially loved the bath tub! so relaxing!
Our dogs had a lovely time too and made themselves at home.
All of the little touches that went along with the accommodation being dog friendly were absolutely lovely!
Could not have asked for more!
Thank you! William, Sophie, Storm & Max

It was a pleasure to stay at the fully equipped Glenfruin Lodge.  We did and saw many things during our one week stay.

We drove the full circle around the National Park.  We went to Oban for a day and Fort William for a day as well.  The drive through Glen Coe (the valley, not the village) was outstanding!

Arienne and Paul walked the first part of the Three Lochs Way (from Balloch to Helensburgh) and Paul climbed to the summit of Ben Lomond. Tough hikes, but amazingly beautiful and recommended!

One day Elise went pony trekking at Rednoch (near Port of Menteith).  It was fun and they particularly keep your level of skill in mind.

Maisie (the cat) visited us from time to time, snoring all the time…  she was kind of like a second host.

Thank you very much!

Thank you Alison & Craig for the most splendid stay at your wonderful lodge.
We have had the most amazing week.The Lodge is so homely equipped with everything you need
for a home from home,if not better. My son studies at Strathclyde University and the Lodge was a
peaceful retreat for him. We traveled all over including visiting relatives in Bannockburn.
We are sad to leave this immaculate cottage and its two endearing hosts, we hope to come back in February.

Warm, cosy, comfortable and quiet Glenfruin Lodge is in a good central location.  We enjoyed cycling the West Loch Lomond Cycle Path, treating ourselves to a coffee stop at ‘The Carrick’.  Our best day was cycling around the beautiful Loch Katrine.  We had a lovely sunny day, coffee was good at the cafe (we took our own bikes, but they can be hired at the loch).

This is our first trip to Scotland to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary.  We have had a lovely time and hope to return soon.

Many thanks Craig & Ally

We have loved our stay here in this lovely cottage.  Perfect location for exploring all that Scotland has to offer.

Would definately recommend Crosskeys to family and friends and come back in the future.

Thanks to Craig & Alison for everything.

Glenfruin Lodge has been ideal for a short break.  We’ve enjoyed some glorious weather, enjoyed Loch Lomond and headed up to Glencoe.

The Lodge has given us a comfortable place to return to and chill out.  Have enjoyed watching the bats flying about at dusk and just being present in the moment…

Dear Craig & Alison,

This has been like home from home for us.  We all had a wonderful time here in your beautiful cottage.  We will definitely be back soon hopefully and will recommend to our friends and family.

Even Kiva our dog is sad to leave, she especially loved lying in her bed in front of the fire!

Sad to be leaving already,

The nicest roundabout we have ever stayed on!! we loved the Cottage – really comfortable and clean.
A great place to explore the area, we did quite a bit of walking so the bath was great for aching legs !!

The Cottage is well equipt with everything you need, lovely facilities from the kitchen to the bathroom.

We have enjoyed exploring the surrounding areas, even in the rain! Perfectly situated cottage with plenty to do in every direction.
