Had a lovely week in this beautiful cottage. Everything we needed, very comfortable and clean.
A good base for our travels we visited Fort William and took the mountain gondola ride,
Luss (Beautiful) Stirling, climbed Ben A’an and walked around Loch Katrine.
Drove to Callander to spot the red squirrels at Stratheyre but they eluded us until
the very end of the week where we saw one in Balloch Country park !
Duck Bay Hotel is a nice spot for a meal and the food is pretty decent.
Would love to come back again.
