We have had a lovely week here in the Loch Lomond area, our first visit to this part of the country.

The Cottage was warm and cosy and very well equipped.  Well situated, only a short drive to Helensburgh or Balloch, everything you need for a happy holiday.

Excellent little cottage in a fantastic location, less than 10 minutes drive to local shops or Loch Lomond. It is an excellent base to travel all around the area. Glencoe is just over an hours drive, and lots of fantastic scenery much closer. The cottage was immaculate and very cosy. It had a well equipped kitchen, lovely lounge area and bedroom and a lovely bathroom with large bath and bath jets. The place was very clean and tidy, the hosts are great with very helpful instructions and respond in great time, and very easy access. There was also some nice little treats on arrival (Tunnocks Caramels and Tea cakes), and fresh milk in the fridge with tea and coffee supplied. Highly recommended and a fantastic stay.

I have had a fabulous week staying at Crosskeys Cottage.  Such a charming cottage with fab features and lovely décor!  I have well and truly fallen in love with the cottage and the area, just wish I didn’t have to go home tomorrow…

Thanks Craig for lending me your wok to cook my clams from Loch Fyne, they were delish.  Places to go – I really recommend ‘Pucks Glen’ near Dunoon.  Loch Fyne restaurant.  Fruin Farm Restaurant (over the road from here) also does a lovely breakfast.  Inverary is lovely too as is the most amazing views on the drive up there.

Thanks again and hope to be back soon!

Thank you for a  lovely stay!  Very relaxing!  Such a well appointed and equipped cottage (Glenfruin Lodge).  Central to everything.

Walks included Ben Lomond and The Cobbler.  Unfortunately mixed weather prevented more exploration on foot!  Toured the Trossachs and also visited Glasgow for the day.  Very convenient park and ride at Kelvinbridge Car park which is close to some galleries and museums.

Local visits included The Hill House, Geilston Gardens, a cruise on Loch Lomond, Luss, Arrochar.  Lots of things to do and see in such an idyllic setting.
