Dear Alison & Craig, it is the first time in Scotland and certainly not the last time.  We love it, it’s a beautiful country.

We enjoyed our stay in your cosy cottage (Crosskeys Cottage).  It was nice to come home after a day enjoying the surroundings.

Thank you very much and we wish you all the best.

Helensburgh very nice with good shops and a good Sunday dinner at the Commodore Hotel.

Had a fantastic week at this (Glenfruin Lodge) lovely cottage

Weather has been great ,perfect location for visiting the Highlands,Glen Coe and Fort William was an amazing day out.

We also had a great day on a boat trip exploring Loch Lomond,you can get off the boat and spend a few hours on the beach or do the island walk.

The boat sailed from Luss which is about 4 miles away. Another good place to visit is Maid of the loch,which is in Balloch

Here you can do water sports,shop or just relax and take in the beautiful views
