What a charming cottage, everything you could need.
Arrived to a storm on Saturday, but by Monday couldn’t wish for better weather for touring round Loch Lomond.
Will definitely be back.

We only had a few days here but what a cosy cottage and so well placed for touring around the area. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t really on our side but we had a lovely day on Sunday when we took a drive through Glen Fruin, up to Arrochar and then over to Loch Fyne and down Loch Eck. A wonderful walk through Pucks Glen and a nice meal on the way home at the lovely Whistlefiled Inn – very reasonably priced too!
Thank you Craig and Alison for a lovely stay, just a shame it was too short.

The accommodation in the Lodge is light and spacious – also well equipped. Unfortunately we did not have particularly good weather for our weeks break. We would certainly recommend this as a place to stay especially in view of inclement weather.
Everything we needed was easily acquired from Helensburgh. We visited local sites – Loch Lomond, Loch Fyne, Loch Katrine and surrounding villages.
Would love to come again – but hopefully with better weather – views would be enhanced considerably.
Many thanks,
Pete & Sue, Oldham

The Lodge is beautiful, well equipped and cosy – the whirlpool bath is great!
Although weather wasn’t on our side, we made the most of the week. Inverary castle is a great trip, especially the gardens. Half way through the week we climbed Ben Nevis, it was very cloudy on top so we couldn’t see anything but snow, but we feel proud to have reached the summit!
The ‘Village Rest’ in Luss is well worth a visit for dinner. Great service and food.
If you go to Glen Coe, make sure you take a path to get away from the road, as it is magnificent.
Many thanks,

We have had an amazing time at Crosskeys. The Cottage is very cosy and comfortable and very well equipped.
It has been the perfect base for exploring this beautiful place.
We had a truly awesome road trip to Inverness on Tuesday, taking in the breath taking scenery of Glen Coe, Loch Ness and the many other sights the drive provided.
Afternoon tea at the Winnock Hotel in Drymen was delicious, followed by a drive to Balmaha. We found The Riverside Museum and the Tall Ship in Glasgow a real fascinating experience, also The People’s Palace, Glasgow Cathedral and surrounding architecture, well worth a visit.
Thanks for a perfect holiday,
Christine and Mark.

Have had a lovely time at your Lodge which is wonderful.
Enjoyed the evening sunshine out the French doors and a few visits from Shadow, also the bird song & Robin.
Have been not too far from the area but loved what we have seen apart from the Antartex Village which is a waste of time!
Lovely lunch at the Duck Bay and beautiful surroundings. The sea life centre was very good.
Hope to return sometime….

We’ve had a lovely stay in your beautiful, cosy cottage. Sammy (our dog!) loved running around the local area, exploring everywhere.
Thank you for making us feel so welcome, and have such an enjoyable stay!

Enjoyed our stay in the Lodge. We have had a lovely, relaxed time. Made the most of the whirlpool bath and had our own spa experience.
Shame that the weather was not on our side, but made the most of being so close to Helensburgh and Luss.
This is the first time we have hired a cottage and will definitely do this again…
Thanks for a lovely stay.

Dear Alison, Craig & Shadow…
Thank you for an amazing place to stay while we explored the beautiful west coast.
I am from Balloch but my partner is a London boy, so it was lovely to have the Lodge so close to everything yet peaceful & remote.
Can’t believe you can’t hear the road from the garden… Shadow popped by a few times, especially when he realised we had ham in the fridge!
We will certainly be back.

Like the last people, this was a surprise from my husband. I have family in Helensburgh and Stirling. Had a wonderful week, weather was brilliant and the Lodge was really lovely. In fact my sister in law and brother wanted to move in!
It was really nice catching up with my family and there was everything you could think of in the lodge, really loved it – in fact might even try and come back later in the year.
Thanks,
