Thank you for a lovely stay.  We have thoroughly enjoyed our first trip to Loch Lomond with our little girl Isla.  Made even more special by the fact she saw snow for the first time.

The Lodge was so family friendly and Isla who has not long started walking, loved pottering about and playing in the lovely bath.

We would recommend Cameron House for lunch (for a special treat).  It was expensive but well worth it.  We also had a lovely drink in the Loch Lomond Arms in Luss next to the cosy log burning fire.  We have had lots of lovely walks taking in the beauty of Loch Lomond, in particular the Argyll Forest.

We will definitely be back.

Thank you,

Clare, Ian & Isla (Liverpool)
