We’ve had a lovely week in “Crosskeys Cottage” – very warm, cosy & characterful place to stay. A warm welcome too when we arrived.
A good base from which to enjoy the beautiful Loch Lomond & Trossachs area.
Some of the places we have visited and walked our 2 dogs that we would recommend:-
– Comic Hill & Balmaha – steep walk, but fantastic view from the top & Oak Tree Inn opposite!!
– Pucks Glen near Dunoon.
– Aberfoyle & Loch Ard Walk
– Fort William (2 hour drive) through Glen Coe was spectacular
– Balloch Castle Country Park
– Luss
– The Cobbler – only looked as it’s a bit of a more serious climb!
We visited far more places including Helensburgh (for shopping & take-aways!!) to mention.
Thanks very much.
