Thank you once again Craig & Alison. This is our 3rd stay in Crosskeys Cottage with you and everything, once again, was perfect.
We did so many different things this year. We have walked over 35 miles in the 2 weeks, including Arthur’s Seat in Edinburgh (1,000ft). Conic hill at Balmaha and 2 local walks from the Hill House in Helensburgh.
Other highlights were Ardkinglas Woodland walk, a ferry from Luss to Inchacailloch Island, a meal at Loch Fyne restaurant, Dumbarton Castle and a ferry across to Inchmurrin Island to dine at the restaurant is worth doing. It is only 1.5 miles from here by foot! the ferry crossing is lovely.
Other good eating places are fish & chips and La Barca Tapas Bar in Helensburgh and Princess Rose Thai restaurant in Balloch. Oh we nearly forgot Blair Drummond safari park was a great day out too and to top it all only 1 day of rain in 2 weeks!
We will be back,
Sue & Tim, West Sussex
