To Craig & Alison,

Thank you very much for letting James, Lilly, Snoopy & I stay in your beautiful cottages.  We had a lovely week here and are sad to be going home!  We did some sight seeing whilst we were here and must say that Luss & Balloch Castle Country Park are lovely places to visit.

We will be recommending your cottage to friends & family looking to stay in the area, it is a great location for exploring the surrounding countryside.

Thanks again, Fliss & James, Lilly & Snoopy (our dogs).
