Glenfruin Lodge is a wonderful, cosy, comfortable and luxurious cottage.  We have had a fantastic 4 days here.  Glorious weather, cycling along Loch Lomond, fantastic scenery with autumn colours reflected everywhere.

Took a boat trip on the loch which was very relaxing.  We couldn’t have asked for a better holiday.

Hope to return in the future as so much more to see and do!
