17th – 24th July 2021

February 4, 2022 by Alison in

Another relaxing and fantastic stay in Glenfruin Lodge! The weather was glorious this year so lazy days were an easy option in the sunshine. A trip to Oban is always a highlight to get the gest Fish & Chips at the ‘Oban Fish & Chip Shop’ in George Street.

A day out on the Rosneath Peninsula is a great way to see the Argyll coast. A trip to Pitlochry has become a mandatory part of our holidays to visit Cafe Bibba and the Sweetie Shop! Balloch Country Park is well laid out and great location for local gentle walking.

A beautiful location and a great cottage – well done Alison & Craig for keeping things going and continuing to provide this ‘oasis’ during these difficult times.
