We’ve had a wonderful stay in this lovely luxurious cottage (Glenfruin Lodge). Weather has been cold until 27th April and has improved nicely.
We recommend Cattle & Creel and La Barca in Helensburgh and Loch Lomond Hotel and Luss Seafood Bar in Luss.
Great places to visit – The Hill House in Helensburgh and Kelvingrove Museum & Art Gallery in Glasgow and a trip up the Loch from Luss. A short cut to get to Luss – turn left at the roundabout here, then join the main road just before Luss.

Charles Rennie Mackintosh was a revolutionary architect and designer and The Hill House is considered to be his domestic masterpiece. Mackintosh and his wife Margaret created almost everything, from the building itself to the furniture and textiles. More examples of his work can be seen in Glasgow.https://www.nts.org.uk/visit/places/the-hill-house
The World’s first and only rotating boat lift. Completed in 2002 the huge Falkirk wheel re-connects the Fourth & Clyde and Union canals after the 11 original lock gates were dismantled in the 1930’s. Also an opportunity to visit the famous Kelpieshttps://www.scottishcanals.co.uk/falkirk-wheel/
Regarded as one of Britain’s best drives, the A821 road between Aberfoyle and Loch Achray leads you through some of the most scenic parts of the iconic Trossachs landscape.https://forestryandland.gov.scot/visit/forest-parks/queen-elizabeth-forest-park/dukes-pass
