Despite ‘challenging’ weather, we’ve had a wonderful few days in this peaceful, well-appointed and well-located cottage (Glenfruin Lodge).

Spent a tranquil evening on the deserted shore of Milavvochy Bay/Balmaha.  Hill House is superb.  Enjoyed the scenery of the Trossachs and a stroll around Callander.

A family wedding at Ross Priory brought us here and, hopefully, we’ll be back.
