We have just enjoyed a very special and memorable Christmas here at Glenfruin Lodge.

We found the accommodation more spacious and luxurious than we expected and the log burning fire added to that warm, cosy, Chrismassy feel.

We enjoyed walks around Loch Katrine and Balloch Castle and visited Luss to reminisce about our wedding there 6 months earlier!

Luss/Loch Lomond will always be special to us and having enjoyed such a lovely property our happy memories are increased further.

Thank you!
