Thank you for an enjoyable stay at Glenfruin Lodge. The fine weather for most of the week was a bonus!
We visited so many places, memorable ones were:-
Queen Elizabeth Forest Park
The 3 Lochs Forest Trail
Inchcailoch Island (ferry from Luss)
Inveraray Castle, from where we climbed Dun ar Cuiache
Balloch Country Park
Duncryne Hill (“the dumpling”), fantastic views over Loch Lomond
Dumbarton Castle
The Falls of Falloch
We recommend Balloch House Hotel for a sandwich lunch and Waitrose in Helensburgh for shopping.
The Lodge was a relaxing place to return each day to, and the superking size bed so comfortable…
