June 29, 2019 by in

Have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Glenfuin Lodge.  The lodge is very well equipped, perfect location and a warm and friendly welcome from Alison & Craig made for a perfect stay.

Enjoyed some great walks – Ben A’an, Ardmore Peninsula, Conic Hill and Stronachlachar and Loch Arklet.  Had a day trip to Glasgow, visited The Tenement and Kelvingrove Museum & Art Gallery.  Here in Helensburgh we spent a morning at Hill House (a National Trust property) designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh – really enjoyed seeing the design and architecture of this period.  Took a road trip up Loch Lomond – fantastic.  Would recommend La Barca in Helensburgh – really tasty Spanish Tapas.  A great holiday, further enhanced by fantastic weather.
