I have had a fabulous week staying at Crosskeys Cottage. Such a charming cottage with fab features and lovely décor! I have well and truly fallen in love with the cottage and the area, just wish I didn’t have to go home tomorrow…
Thanks Craig for lending me your wok to cook my clams from Loch Fyne, they were delish. Places to go – I really recommend ‘Pucks Glen’ near Dunoon. Loch Fyne restaurant.

Thanks again and hope to be back soon!
