Thank you Alison & Craig for a most wonderful, comfortable cottage for us to stay in for our holiday. We have had the most amazing week exploring Loch Lomond, including lots of hikiing every day.
Some of our favourites included The Cobbler, the Beinn Dubh – Glen Striddle horseshoe and Conic Hill. All with the most spectacular views.
We also drove a bit further one day up to Glenfinnan Viaduct which was spectacular and enjoyed the amazing scenic road trip!

Thank you and we hope to be back again soon!
Amy & Luke.
