We had a lovely family holiday here.  The lodge is in a good central location for visiting all the nearby lochs.

There was a bit of a misunderstanding with the website and therefore we did not bring a high chair, however the owner very kindly went and bought one the following day for us.  The bed is very comfortable (hotel quality) and was very well equipped, it was a shame we didn’t get to sit in the garden because of the weather.

Lots of nice picnic locations nearby, I recommend Balmaha.

Well we really enjoyed our long weekend, so welcomed by Alison & Craig.

The Lodge was very well equipped, excellent location, loved the peace & quiet but handy enough to get to the hustle & bustle also.

Hope to visit again soon and will be sure to let others know about this little haven…

Thanks again Alison & Craig!

Thank you so much Craig & Alison !
We had the most wonderful time exploring Loch Lomond, Glencoe, Fort William, Oban and Mull.
Even though I have lived in the UK most of my life, travelling up to Scotland to explore this area has been a dream, it is so beautiful.
Thank you for being wonderful hosts.

Thank you so much for letting us book your gorgeous, cosy little cottage (Crosskeys cottage) so last minute.  It was perfect for the quiet, relaxed mini break we wanted to bring in the new year.  The Christmas decorations were also a lovely touch.

We didn’t do much exploring of the local area, but the sealife centre is worth a visit for a few hours and has a lovely view of Loch Lomond from the café.

Wishing everyone every happiness for 2018!

27th Dec – 3rd Jan 2022

We’ve had a lovely few days at Glenfruin Lodge and we have been lucky with the weather considering the time of year.

We had a beautiful walk around the banks of Loch Katrine and a village walk around Luss which was very pretty.  We drove through dramatic views to Inverary and stopped at Loch Fyne for a delicious lunch of oysters, mussels and smoked salmon.  It has been wonderful to return to the comfortable and cosy lodge each evening.

Thank you for a lovely break, hopefully we’ll be back soon.
