What a wonderful week in a beautiful cottage (Glenfruin Lodge) and stunning surroundings.  Thank you so much for your hospitality.  We thoroughly enjoyed watching the log burner of an evening and the whirlpool bath was a real treat too!

William and Maria had a fabulous time in the snow, building snowmen and sledging – a week of perfect weather and a brilliant base from which to explore this wonderful area!  Our favourite spots from the week include; sledging in Glencoe, walking the history trail on Ben Lomond, visiting Stirling Castle, finding waterfalls at Falloch and Queen Elizabeth Forest Park too – so many amazing experiences for us and our children.

Thank you once again and we look forward to another visit again soon!
