The 47 best pet-friendly places and activities in Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park

Beautiful lake. The boat trip is a must. A walk to the castle is pleasant and quite relaxing. This is a visit to a wonderful park. Not a walk on nature. Overall, I recommend the trip.

A place worth experiencing when you visit Scotland. Everything here is wonderful, from the natural scenery to the people. You can explore this place by both land and water.

What a beautiful place to explore. Had a cruise on the lake which is a must. On a good day you can walk around the loch and climb the Ben Lomond and do a scenic walk in one of the loch’s islands. Make sure you allocate enough time to be able to do most of the activities.

🌊 My Visit to Loch Lomond, Scotland Visiting Loch Lomond was a breathtaking experience. Located just about an hour from Glasgow, it is the largest freshwater loch in Scotland and part of the stunning Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park. Surrounded by rolling hills, forests, and charming villages, the scenery is simply spectacular. I enjoyed a leisurely walk along the shore, boat rides on the loch, and exploring the picturesque village of Luss. The calm waters, reflections of the hills, and peaceful atmosphere make it a perfect spot for photography, picnics, and relaxation. Visitor Tips: Bring comfortable walking shoes for trails, and pack snacks or a picnic. Boat tours and water activities are available during summer months. Early morning or late afternoon visits offer the best light for photos and fewer crowds. How to Reach: Loch Lomond is accessible by car via the A82 from Glasgow or by train to Balloch with onward local transport. Overall, Loch Lomond is a must-visit for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone seeking tranquility amidst Scotland’s iconic landscapes.

Ok so the weather at the end of May was not so great ,but I drove up from Glasgow with a Loch tour booked to my amazment I got there way to early even though I had already been to Dunbarton Castle, but I asked at the kiosk if I could change my ticket and just like that the young lady siad aye there is a boat going in 5 mins so of I went on my second adventure in less than 4 hours.

Lovely scenery and it's a very large area so plenty to see if you are up for a bit of a walk

A beautiful lake, which is beautiful irrespective of the time of the day. It has boating and some water sports options to engage with the environment. Very peaceful to just sit by the side of water and let the waves (yes! Waves in the lake water) entertain you for a while.

It takes 2.5 to 3 hrs to reach the top. It's totally worth it. The scenery is beautiful, just one tip to the people who are planning to hike there are 2 routes to reach the top the route which begins from left side of car park I mean which passes through a small beach , in that route near the top of Ben Lomond it gets very steep so be careful there. The right route is easy .

One of the most pleasant and rewarding mountain hikes I have had the pleasure of completing. Of moderate difficulty and suitable for hikers of all levels if you've got the time. The summit was very windy and 10-15C colder than the bottom, so bring layers. If you decide to do the full loop via the Ptarmigan Ridge, I recommend doing it counter-clockwise as going up the eastern side was more gradual and the path was more flat. It took us 5.5 hours to do the full loop, including a pitstop for lunch at the top.

Definitely one of the better mountains in Scotland but it's also one of the busiest. Offer unbelievable views. The hike up needs a reasonable level of fitness though

Bagged my first Munro yesterday and it just had to be the beautiful Ben Lomond on the stunning loch Lomond. We went right up the shoulder and then down the ptarmigan ridge. Wow wow wow. It took is 4 hours to reach the summit including small breaks and a half hour stop at the top. 2.5 hours to descent, with equally amazing scenery. Highly recommend this as a first Munro. Only 281 to go 💙⛰️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

My first Munro! ☺️ what a lovely and rewarding mountain hike we had. You can see Loch Lomond while you hike and the views are spectacular.

A lovely hike for my first Munro. There's a couple of awkward spots but with a bit of care they are easily navigated. It's a continuous slope from start to finish. But the views at the top are stunning. We were lucky enough to do it with totally clear skies. If it has been raining extra care will be required as some of the rocks are slippery. It's also a busy walk so you definitely won't have the place to yourself.

Beautiful. The climb up to the peak is very challenging and at times I thought we should turn back. But we didn’t and I’m so glad. The views from the top are breathtakingly beautiful. There are some really tricky sections on the way up which I wouldn’t have managed without my husband’s help. Be prepared, if you’re not used to tough walking this isn’t for you. But I did it and I have a mobility problem. Take your time, don’t be in a hurry. It will get your heart pumping - literally - and take as many rest breaks as you need. It took us 8.5 hours to go to the peak and back down again, but we had allowed for that time. So glad we did it.

A stunning place to visit. Just a few minutes walk from the train station, and you are in breath-taking scenery. There are lots of different walking trails. Dotted around the loch, there are children's play areas. There is also a castle and walled garden that you can explore. The nearest toilets are at the castle. There were picnic tables. There are hard surface paths around the loch. These are wheelchair accessible. Dog walking off lead is allowed.

This is amazingly beautiful place to do hiking, chilling by the water or doing water activities, it has it all covered. Little place called Luss, was a brilliant spot for us. Has got boat tours, little cafe and shop, parking and petrol station, town streets and houses are postcard perfect, the beach with white sand. Amazing experience. Weather in the morning didn't promise a nice day, but later sunshine appeared and it was lovely.

Breathtaking! A cross between North Carolina and Colorado. We came through in March and I can only imagine what the scenery is like here in the summer and fall. We were able to see a tremendous variety of flora and fauna, from vast swatches of some of the largest daffodils I have ever seen, to wild Scottish Red Deer, which look similar to a North American Elk. The weather, while cold and damp, was almost perfect for the time of year we visited. This is a bucket list item, for sure!

Truly a beautiful lake, I thoroughly enjoyed my time here. I can really tell the Scottish people take real good care of the lake too. Well worth a visit.

We were staying in Stirling and went on a day trip to see this area. It was amazing to see the beautiful highland landscapes and lowland rolling hills & drive through the villages.

Camping is allowed in this area as its outwith the Loch Lomond and Trossachs no camping zone. Parking at the Balquhidder church this route takes about an hour and a half walking. There isn't many good pitches at Lochan Eireannaich but I managed to find a good one.

Although far for most Englanders, this is a place of extraordinary beauty. Whether you like watersports, or hiking. Quick tips: 1. Always carry midge spray. Avoid DEET though. Midges usually are the biggest annoyance in and around the area. 2. If you booked a water taxi, make sure you call them ahead of schedule if the jeti they will pick you up from is busy.

Taken here by a friend for my birthday lunch. Staff are delightful and friendly, couldn't fault them. Food was superb, beautifully cooked and presented. This place is a must-do on a food list.

(Detailed review below) Food ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Atmosphere ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Accessibilty ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Cost ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Service ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I came here recently on a Sunday with family/friends and had a really nice, relaxed time! It wasn't too busy (we had booked ahead because of our group size) and the vibe was cosy, casual and comfortable. There is an extension/outdoor area that was spacious and lovely but we were sat indoors in what I can only assume is the old mill (hence the name) and the space is a bit tight. There are sections that are wheelchair accessible but some passages are narrow or may have steps. I had the Sunday roast and really enjoyed it. The taste was great but I could have done with just a bit more roasted vegetables. Also, the knives weren't very sharp. Minor issues but something that could be improved on. My dessert (a chocolate mousse thing with a scoop of caramel ice cream) was delicious too! This place is pet friendly (indoors and outdoors) and we had a dog 🐶 with us that got some love by the staff (free water, doggy biscuits... plus lots of scratchings behind the ear). Overall, it's definitely a lovely stop even for a drink (they have a bar) and easily recommended to anyone!

The restaurant and pub is very popular in Killearn town. This 18th century former weaving mill is very charming and modern restaurant and has a beautiful rustic pub; reservations recommended during meal times! Well located with ample parking space at the back courtyard. Their service staff is friendly and welcoming. The food is freshly prepared, cooked to perfection and very delicious. Thank you for a wonderful meal; keep up the great work guys

Absolute gem of a spot. Beautiful location. Amazing food. Deserts to die for. Hilarious hosts. Highly recommend.

Just visited this pub with my dog and had such a lovely experience. The food was excellent. What stood out most, though, was the staff. They were warm, welcoming and genuinely friendly, not only to me and my family but especially towards my dog. A great spot if you’re looking for good food in a really dog‑friendly atmosphere.

Really dissapointed that we wasted our money here today. Just to be clear 2 courses with a drink each came to £94 thats with a 20% discount on one of the mains... let me tell you why. Our starters were nice, presented well and tasted good, however.. We ordered steaks for the mains, medium rare. Both steaks came out blue, myself not being fussy and not being approached to ask how our meals were I ate mine, my partner however couldnt chew through half of it, left over 75% of her steak. After a complaint to the waitress at the end about this only after she asked "are you finished there" instead of "how was your meal", she reported back to say the manager had taken 20% off of 1 of the mains only (totalling £6.80) although the steak was uneaten. Didnt make a dent in it. The mac and cheese was also so bland, did not taste of cheese what so ever. Horrible experience. (We had two, 3 course meals with 2 drinks each the previous day in glasgow, for a total of £88 and the food was far superior to here) just for reference.

Visited for a few meals last week with family. Excellent food, with some of the best steak I have had. Drinks are great too, and the atmosphere is cozy whilst being neither too formal or relaxed. A great place for good food and drink, I would recommend booking in advance, especially during tourist seasons. Thursday steak night has definitely been a hit for me, so I will be aiming to visit again soon!

Another great spot for Family. Toilets a bit far though and up the hill. Lovely play parks and lots of open green space to play all sorts of sports games or just to chill on a blanket. Stunning views. Very clear water. The only downside for us it was quite a lot of broken glass on the beach and my girls love walking bare feet. Staff tries their best to keep it clean but it is up to us actually to leave no print behind.

This charming and tranquil location is not very well-known among tourists, making it a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of more crowded attractions. Visitors can enjoy breathtaking views of the serene lake, which adds to the area’s natural beauty. Families will find a delightful playground for children, providing a safe and fun space for them to explore and play. Convenient facilities include clean restrooms located adjacent to the historic castle, ensuring comfort for all visitors. Best of all, parking is free, making it easy to spend a leisurely day soaking in the picturesque surroundings.

First time in this park despite my many visits over the years to Balloch. Wanted to go for picturesque dog walk & was not disappointed. Perfect time of year at autumn . Will be back more often 👌🏻

Great place for a walk and picnic. Stunning views of loch lomond. Grounds are spotlessand well maintained. The castle is closed to the public but if you have an interest in history or just like to visit beautiful buildings then its worth a visit if in the area. Public toilets are in the castle. If you walk down the hill towards the pier there is a kiosk if you want to grab an ice cream.

A lovely castle that is sadly rotting away. You are able to walk around the outside, and there are toilets available. The toilets were in good condition. It should be noted they close at 2.30 pm during the winter. There is a hard surface path to the castle, but it is up a hill, so it would depend on the wheelchair type and fitness of the user.

I find this park to be a wonderful spot with breathtaking views of Loch Lomond, scenic walking paths, and wide open areas perfect for picnicking or unwinding. Very clean and green area. Parking is big and free, there is a huge playground for the kids, cafe and ice cream shop

We were staying in Stirling and went on a day trip to see this area. We parked in the castle parking area for free anc walked around the ruins of the 13th century castle. It was barricaded. We walked the path leading to Loch Lomond and enjoyed the views. There was a playground near the lake and our kids & grandkids enjoyed the play set.

Despite visiting in the middle of August, the weather was not the most favourable, with occasional wind and light rain. This did not deter us from climbing to the top, and the experience was entirely worthwhile. We noticed that some people only climbed halfway up, and even from that point, the views were fantastic. Therefore, we definitely recommend going as far as you can, even if you do not plan to reach the very top.

Conic Hill (361m/1184ft) offers absolutely breathtaking views of Lock Lomond below during this hike. A steady uphill hike with a few steep parts however this is very doable for all ages and fitness levels. Just take plenty rests if you need to. A great walk for dogs with a car park and a visitors centre that also has toilets (Not free but very reasonably priced). A local shop in just outside the car park for supplies. Also a lovely pub offering lots of drinks choices and a lovely restaurant inside. Very friendly staff. What a lovely walk and I would definitely do this again!! A must see if your in the area 😁👌🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Balmaha's walking trails are a must-do! We completed both the easy loop around the village, which offers lovely woodland views and insight into the area's history, and the more challenging Conic Hill trail, which rewards with breathtaking panoramic views of Loch Lomond. The Conic Hill climb can be steep and rocky in parts, so good footwear's a must. Both trails are well-marked and maintained. Don't forget to pay for parking - you can pay by app or at the machines, super convenient. Toilets are paid in the visitors' centre. Overall, Balmaha's trails offer a fantastic way to experience the natural beauty of Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park. Highly recommend!

Conic hill gives you stunning views of the Eastern end of Loch Lomond from an easily accessible hill at 1184ft. The path to the summit is very well constructed and maintained. The walk starts from Balmaha visitor centre car park and parking is plentiful with a small charge. Conic hill is signposted and easy to follow on a well defined path to the summit. You start walking through a lush, woodland before the trees open up and the views of Loch Lomond can be seen. The view at the top is a jewel and you can see the clear line of the Highland boundary faultline where the division of the highlands and the lowlands join and on a clear day you can see Goat fell on Arran and Ailsa Craig. Conic hill can be enjoyed by most people of reasonable fitness, just be canny on the stone path when it is wet as it can be slippery. There are also amenities in Balmaha with a village shop and the Oak tree inn for food, drink and accommodation.

Twice we've been up here. The first time up and down from Balmaha (which is steep, stony steps). The second while walking the West Highland Way. Great views from near the top. The summit is further back, but we headed up to a viewpoint to get a great view over Loch Lomond.

Beautiful trail with stunning views over Loch Lomond and its islets. The hike is very doable if you are untrained as the trail mostly consists of stepping stones. Up and down took us around 2 hours, taking it slowly and taking plenty of breaks. Truth be told, the views were mostly beautiful from the second platform at around 75% of the hike. The top was extremely windy which made us was to get down quickly. You return the same way you got up.

We did this hike last week starting from the car park. I had a driver who picked us up along the W. Highland Loop. We traveled east from Conic Hill. I think this was ideal. There are essentially stone steps for approximately 1 mile up the hill, which would be very challenging coming down, especially if it was wet. If you travel east on the west Highland route past conic hill is more of a trail with stone steps and more dirt. I know this isn’t the standard direction for the W. Highlands Loop but for us that day and if you have a driver or a second car and you wish to do a point to point type of hike , it is fantastic. In total it was about 5 miles for us to get back to the paved road.

Don't waste your time with this agency. I showed interest and a lady called me wanting to know where the agencies I worked with sent me to for work. I told her I cant reveal due to data protection. She said since I can't tell her the name of the places my agency sent me to, she can't bring me onboard as she can't ascertain my experience. I told her I ain't desperate for her job. Aside, seeing their reviews here, I am glad she didn't bring me onboard. She appears not to know her onions. Just for you to know, I mean the lady , I have over 13years experience working as carer/Support Worker and currently studying nursing. Good riddance!

I’m writing to express my deep disappointment with the way my application and availability have been handled over the past few months. After being given only a one-month shift, I’ve now been waiting for over two and a half months with no further work offered. During this time, I received occasional updates suggesting job availability—most recently a possible return to WHS with an induction scheduled for 12th June—but was later told I was not suitable without any clear reason or explanation. I had turned down other job opportunities based on the belief that more consistent shifts would be available through your agency. Unfortunately, this trust has not been respected, and I feel that my time and efforts have been taken for granted. It’s particularly frustrating to see new roles being posted on your website each week while existing registered staff—who are available and already familiar with the work—are ignored. Additionally, conducting interviews and inductions for temporary jobs that only last a month is extremely misleading and wastes candidates’ time. There was also no proper communication that many of these roles are short-term or temporary in nature, which would have helped me make more informed decisions earlier. Given this experience, I’ve decided to stop pursuing work through your agency and will be leaving a 1-star review to reflect the lack of transparency, communication and respect shown throughout this process. I genuinely hope this feedback helps improve how candidates are treated moving forward.

I should have read the reviews before I considred any application . several attempts by e-mail to get some update and ask if anything I can do to change my options. So I just rang , was greeted like an old friend, 1 question later knew I wasnt even considred for anything they had because she clearly binned me after the interview left me cold ,and ignored my contact attempts . awful way to treat someone . If they cant use you they dont want to know you , But a response after attempted contact would have let me know , and saved this review

it's the worst agency I have ever seen. I had a sad experience with them. I sent an email to their agency (Robyn Christie) for a job search. I didn't get any reply, so I sent an email to him again, but he blocked me. I still don't know the reason.

They sent all my money to a previous Revolut account, even though I unfortunately don't have access to it.I gave them my new account details. They simply ignored me and took the easy way out ! The fact is , 1,5 years later, I still don't have any money ( 1000£) . I've tried everything, and only a lawyer can I hope help me ! Thank you very much !

Horrible company! Ignore your application completely, how can anyone want to apply for jobs through this agency is beyond me! Never again

I started my job search 2 weeks ago with an initial interview with Denise while my recruiter was on annual leave - who was nothing but helpful and informative about how they work, and how I can get a job through them. The process is really fast and easy and I can’t thank everyone enough for their help. I dealt specifically with Eilidh who was an absolute star. She called me for 3 different job opportunities as well as a weekly check in to touch base with me to see if I also had any news. It’s the fastest I have ever got a job through an agency and the process was highly efficient and professional. Thanks for helping me obtain my first job linked to my university degree!

Good place for camping and fishing. Really nice views, highly recommended. The mirror man is located near the bus stop, main road A85

Went to see the Mirror man very impressed though my other half wasn't. Plenty paring for 5 plus cars, seats to enjoy the spectacular views of the Munro, loch n the man himself Well worth the stop in my opinion

Loch Eran, You can drive right around this loch , with lots of wild life and things to see, can even visit prometheus standing in the loch

Lovely place for walks, seems the fishermen like it here too, there was loads of them. Saw the mirror man, not as tall as I thought, but you can see how far the water splashed him. Some even swam.out to him Great day out for this area.

This place is just breath taking the space and nature are so beautiful and peaceful

Lovely camping spot. Can get quite windy and rainy, but the views are amazing. There isn't a lot of parking spots around so you need to come nice and early if you're planning on camping and want to be near your car. The walk from the south side of the loch towards St Fillans is also very nice.

Beautiful setting, very peaceful ( at times ) . Can get very busy during summer months. Really good fishing for brown trout and char .

Great location. Nice restaurant/bar. Well maintained. Good service. This review is specifically for Room 81... While this room is in fine condition there are things any guest MUST be aware of (which we were not, prior to our arrival). TALL PEOPLE OF ALL AGES AND ALL PEOPLE WITH EVEN MINOR MOBILITY ISSUES SHOULD NOT STAY IN ROOM 81. The room is well appointed and clean but it is at the top of winding stairs which were challenging to negotiate and the interior space is loaded with head-injury opportunities. This apartment is built in an attic space. The four dormers (or dormer-like recesses) are great but the resulting protruding ceiling edges are treacherous. As a man of 70" in height, I had to constantly restrict my movement to a width of about 5' for the entire length of the facility. We set our upright suitcases and portable furnishings in places to remind us to not walk into the ceilings. I will attempt to upload photos illustrating this. Very careful healthy short people would love this place!

Excellent, stayed 3 nights . The room was so nice, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. All the staff we came into contact with were very friendly and professional. The restaurant was good, with well cooked food and served hot. Very generous portions. The whole site was well presented and well kept. We will recommend.

Nice large complex close to great walking trails. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. The restaurant was a bit of a mob scene with live music, a private party in the main dining room and lots of kids running around wild. The food was just okay, probably won't dine there again.

We are doing the West Highland Way and had a pleasant stay here. The highlight for me was the quality of the dinner. My Asian Salad and Carrot Coconut soup were delicious, as were the desserts and wine. My husband loved the chicken pie. Our compliments to the chef!

We had wonderful three days at the Oak Tree Inn. The room was very clean and really comfortable. The breakfast offered a great selection and was delicious. We really enjoyed the location on Loch Lomond. We made ourselves comfortable during the storm. The food in the restaurant is also highly recommended and everyone enjoyed it. We would love to come back on our next visit to Scotland. Very family-friendly!

I’m hiking through on the West Highland Way with some friends and stopped at the Oak Tree Inn last minute because we had some boot issues. Kirsty was extremely friendly and helpful, managed to find us a room which was exactly what we needed while we figured the boot situation. Everyone here is very friendly and professional, food is great and the pod we’re in is nice and clean. Shout out to Kirsty for her help, we definitely recommend this place. Also the included breakfast buffet is very good with lots of options - quality meal.

Real Ales, Real Fire, Real comfy Cottage with Loch views, Real good selection of Scotch Whisky, Really nice Steak Pie, Really recommended. Their Coffee shop next door also does Really good Coffee, Croissants and Cake! November in Scotland CAN be Real good!

This was the first hotel we stayed at on our west highland way journey. Rooms were well maintained and clean. We shared a bathroom with one other room which wasn't bad. Staff was great and we were even able to check in early which was so appreciated after a long day. Dinner was fantastic. One of the best we had during our 12 days in Scotland.

We had an excellent meal for two here. Though they were extremely busy, all the young waiting staff were refreshing very attentive and with such a good professional approach. Not surprisingly the service was excellent and food well presented and delicious. Many thanks for making our last evening of our break in Loch Lomond feel special.

This is the second time we’ve eaten here and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere is so lovely - cosy and quaint with nice decor too. The staff are friendly and made us feel welcome. The food was 10/10 - tons of choice, big portions and delicious. I had the seafood trio to start and it tasted so fresh. The salmon was incredible - full of flavour and presented beautifully. We had multiple cocktails too and every single one was really nice and presented well. We can’t recommend this place enough - it’s a treasure.

Booked a table for a party of five for lunch mid week. Booking was easy and done in a nice manner . On arrival we were greeted and taken to the restaurant where we decided on the table and then ordered a variety of things from the menu. Staff were both helpful and nice and patient ; they had to be ,decisions decisions were slow on our part . Food came and all looked very appetising ; it was good too and everyone was happy . I remember the food from years ago being very good and while the menu style had changed the quality is still very good . No hesitation to recommend and I look forward to returning. Thank you Clachan team .

Scottish hospitality at it's best! I stopped here a few times on my walking holiday and the staff and locals were so welcoming and friendly. They found a table for me and my dog in the bar when we arrived late, tired and hungry. We'll both be back.

Fantastic service from the minute we walked in. The team there seemed like a solid family. Atmosphere was fantastic. Cocktails where exceptional and the Irish stew was phenomenal. Top marks all round.

it was amazing! the food was great and they also have an entire gluten free menu. personally I had one meal off the specials of the week (which was also gluten free) the atmosphere is unique!!

Delicious food Service a little slow but they where very busy Clean toilets always a plus Highly recommend the scone and jam/cream 😆😆

Lovely staff superb customer service especially from Lyn who was our waitress. She made sure our experience at The Coach House was perfect in every way.

Lovely place to stop and enjoy a hot tea or coffee with lots of cakes options!! Everything was delicious. Very recommend!

Great little cafe just up from the water. It has indoor and shaded outdoor seating. A wide menu for all tastes. It's got a small gift shop inside and is dog friendly, even providing complementary dog treats and water.

Best scone of my life👍. I had as well the haggis, on oir last day in Scotland, and that's totally palatable from a french point of view. Very simple dish served with mashed potatoes and melted cheese that reminds me of the aligot in Clermont Ferrand. Service is excellent, friendly waitresses, but it comes with a hefty price tag. That's the cost of reputation. Bad surprise, I got a penalty for not parking my motorcycle properly. An expensive brunch indeed.

What a great find whilst visiting Loch Lomond and stopping over in Luss. Very friendly staff, quick service, very dog friendly and lovely garden where we could eat our take away. Three choices of soups and the carrot and parsnip was homemade, hot and really tasty. Served with a slice of crusty bread. My husband had a stokie ( filled bap) which was really good. We highly recommend this cafe.

It was a bit crowded, but the food and coffee were great. Just browsing the pretty items for sale made the visit worthwhile.

The location and views are absolutely stunning - a beautiful setting that initially makes you expect a true 5-star experience. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives end. From the start, service was non-existent. We queued for 20 minutes to check in with no seating or refreshments offered, and doormen didn’t assist with luggage. We had purchased welcome treats which room service simply forgot to deliver. Our luggage took more than an hour to arrive after check-in; even after calling, we eventually had to collect it ourselves. Staff were unhelpful and unapologetic throughout. Our suite was fine on average, but certainly not at the level advertised: the toilet flush button was falling off, the shower hose leaked, and the AC was so noisy it disturbed sleep. Shuttle service between facilities was only once per hour and unreliable. Despite confirming a late checkout multiple times, we were locked out of our room earlier than agreed. On departure, the taxi we had asked reception to book in advance was also forgotten, leaving us waiting an additional 20 minutes. Overall, Cameron House is understaffed, poorly managed, and does not live up to its advertised 5-star standard. Beyond the scenery, it offers little value - if you are expecting luxury service, this is not the hotel for you.

Disappointing Stay at a Beautiful but Overpriced Hotel last summer We were really excited for our stay at Cameron house, a luxurious establishment with a beautiful setting. Unfortunately, our experience didn’t live up to the 5-star hype. The property itself is stunning — the views on Loch Lomond, the design, everything looks gorgeous. The people working there are particularly kind, however, the service left a lot to be desired, particularly housekeeping. Our room wasn’t cleaned properly during our stay and on multiple occasions very late in the afternoon. The carpet was not vacuumed and the bathroom floor not cleaned at all during our stay. It was frustrating, especially when you're paying top dollar for a 5-star experience. At the Tavern, we had to wait for one hour to have the waiter tell us that they got the orders confused then brought us a burnt and cold burger. We asked to replace, they only changed the upper bun. At the bar we asked for our tea to be brought to the room, we never received them. It seemed like the staff were doing their best but couldn’t deliver quality service because of their workload. You need to ask for some things twice in order to get them. Some of them were also clearly undertrained. For a hotel at that price, we expected much better attention to detail and responsiveness. It was clear that the hotel is run by an American private equity that’s cutting costs where it matters most, the staff.

Having wanted to stay at Cameron House for some time, my wife arranged our stay as a birthday treat. I can honestly say, from the initial friendly welcome we received from our parking valet right through to our check out every member of staff was nothing short of excellent. A great balance of relaxed Scottish wit, yet respectful, to excellent service in the restaurants, bars, spa and house keeping. Would I return .. in a heartbeat .. and would have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone. Great staff, great food, great ambience. Thank you all for an amazing experience. Alistair and Lynn McM

Would love to be able to leave a positive review based on my experience but as the resort were unwilling to honour a £100 voucher I was gifted but unable to use due to multiple personal reason (including serious illness of partner and then death of a close relative) this was not possible (I accept they have a policy but there was no attempt to offer any solution other than ‘you can buy another voucher’). As a potential customer who has moved back to the local area, I will be unlikely to visit again myself or recommend the resort to visitors or business contacts based on this service.

We had a wonderful stay at Cameron House on Loch Lomond! The location is absolutely breathtaking — right on the edge of the lake with postcard-perfect views everywhere you look. The property beautifully combines Scottish heritage with modern luxury. Our room was elegant, comfortable, and spotless, with every detail thoughtfully designed. The staff were exceptional — warm, welcoming, and always eager to help. Breakfast was delicious with a wide variety of options, and we especially loved the evening walks along the loch. It’s a place that truly lets you slow down, relax, and soak in nature’s beauty. We’re already looking forward to visiting again!

Stayed one night here for a business event. The hotel and grounds are beautiful, luxurious but traditional decor, beds comfy. The view I had out to Loch Lomond was fantastic. Good service and Scottish hospitality at check in / check out. Breakfast was good, maybe not quite as high as standard as the rest of the stay though, but thats being picky. Loads of EV chargers on site which were easiy to use

Myself and my friend came to celebrate birthdays. I am in a wheelchair and was in an accessible room. When we checked in only one room was ready so we asked where we could go for tea and cake. The receptionist sent us off to the bar only to be told tea and cakes were in the area beside the reception. Why she sent us to the bar I’ve no idea. She also said we had adjoining rooms but when we went back for the keys my friend was two floors away. The service was either great or lacking. We ate at la vista and the Cameron grill. Both were decent and food was good. The Main gripe I have was the room. It is so in need of a refresh. The tiles and grouting in the shower is quite disgusting. Carpet stained and room a bit grubby. I agree with everyone who says this is not 5 star. And for my needs there is one grab bar in the shower. I felt so unsafe to the point I didn’t have a shower the second day. The other thing is housekeeping didn’t turn down the first night. This may not be a big thing but just small things make a difference whether a hotel is on it or not. I found it difficult to close the curtains and turn down the bed so would have really appreciated it. I asked reception if I could have this the second night and put the service card on door. No one came which is so poor. We went to the spa and had a lovely time. I had a manicure and facial. The facial is one of the best I’ve ever had. The nail varnish did chip the next day which was a lot of money for less than 12 hours but it was a lovely experience at the time. I fed this back to the hotel but they didn’t respond. I guess they might with a public review with some well chosen words and look forward to welcoming me back. Just do better and sort yourself out. And buy some grout!

Great bar the staff always give a very warm welcome and are great with the kids. Great food great value. Also great for a breakfast stop.

Easy to order at the bar, staff friendly and courteous. The food was very tasty and great value for money. Thank you.

Came with my partner for dinner and we walked inside and looked for an empty table that was cleared of plates etc however there weren't any so we took a table and placed all the dirty stuff to the end. A sign on the table said to order using the app so we did. Soon after placing the order, a member of staff came to our table to inform us that they only had 1 steak left so one of us would have to change our order. I said I was happy to change mine and the guy said I would have to go with him to the bar to sort it out on the computer. I followed him to the bar and he said he would need to go get his manager. The manager appeared and I recognised this lady from a previous visit we had. She was not at all happy and didn't even acknowledge me standing there or make any eye contact. The guy then told her the issue and she swore and said this was going to take ages to fix. Without looking at me, she told me to go back to my seat as it would take a while. Eventually our food arrived and we asked for cutlery. The server pointed to the stuff at the end of the table which we had stacked and said there's cutlery there. We told him that was all the stuff from the previous diners. He went and got us clean cutlery but left the dirty stuff on the table. I asked where our drinks were and he said that we'd have to go get them ourselves as they were short staffed. My partner went to the bar and the barmaid was standing waiting for a customer. He asked if our drinks were coming and she just pointed to the drinks orders laid out and asked which one it was. So she made the order and my partner brought it back. We finished our meal and had already gave a tip due to paying via the app where it asks for a tip upfront. The manager never appeared with a resolution to the mix up to the order so no idea if I'll be getting a refund for the difference or not. Given the fact on each occasion I've been in when this manager has been on and we have had a bad experience we won't be back.

In for lunch the two meals for 12 what a fantastic value for money we had the gammon and the fish delicious and definitely the best fish in Cumbernauld well worth a try fudge cake is absolutely amazing to die for

Trying to put a reasonable perspective on this. I have visited many times for drinks and the quiz. Decided to have dinner and was extremely disappointed. Order was taken down wrong and therefore wrong main served. One order was forgotten about, however the quality of the food was no better than 3/10 presentation poor and sauce served in a bowl, quality decidedly average. Another point is when you order drinks for example a Stella and it comes in a Carling glass. Ordered 4 over the night each in a different glass none of them in the Chalice!!! not great. Would I go back to the pub? Definitely. As for food I appreciate its ‘Pub Grub’ but spending over £50 on mains you expect better and will give it a miss in the future.

Always a warm welcome from Stevie, Kat and all the other bar staff Great atmosphere

Waited over an hour for food and this is what I was served. Literal charcoal. What member of the kitchen cremated this and not only that allowed it to be served? Staff were unhelpful and ignoring my questions of where is our food? Horrific and will not be back.

Absolutely beautiful church building. The architecture and scenery was breathtaking! Nice little tearoom. A nice pit stop. Coffee cheap (and tasted it) but we were grateful for refreshment. Didn't notice a WC which was needed. Free entry, limited parking. Not too busy. We really love this spot.

Drove for just over two hours to visit the kirk. Well worth it and no amount of pictures does this place justice. One thing to note... entry costs are a donation, some similar places like castles charge £18 to enter and this place can cenrtainly keep me amazed just as much as they can

Stunning church with so much history restoration work blends in perfectly no payment but you can donate with card which makes more sense as very few of us carry cash .Also take time to walk around the grounds and gardens beautiful views down Loch Awe .

Beautiful building, and worth visiting if in the area. Free entry but donations welcome as the upkeep of the building is substantial. We visited at Halloween so decorations were up along with some smoke and spooky lighting coming from the crypt.

The kirk sits on the shores of Loch Awe which makes for a magnificent setting. The stained glass windows are beautiful and the detail of each is unbelieveable. The details were hard to capture with the camera so I hope I did them justice with my photos. The real suprise was the effigy of Robert the Bruce. A magnificent sculpture carved of wood and alabaster. It took me by surprise as I had done almost no research on the contents of the kirk. I felt like he was sleeping right next to me, just waiting to come out of his slumber. This is one of the best kept secrets in Scotland. An absolute must see.

One of the most beautiful churches I’ve ever seen. We drove the entire country on our recent trip and this is one of the highlights of the entire journey. Couldn’t recommend it more.

beautiful kirk with lots of history. They have a kirk Kitty and a fragment of a bone from Robert the Bruce. In the room that set next to the chapel are board filled with the history of the church. the back door leads to a beautiful overlook of the loch. The parking lot is very small, so please plan accordingly. Definitely worth the visit

Ate at the restaurant last night, and it was quite certainly the best dining experience we have had in a long long time. Superb ambiance. Exceptional service. Creative and delicious food. Would highly recommend this place to others. Just sad that we did not discover it decades ago!!

We booked Roman Camp Hotel last minute as a place to stop on our journey north. We booked the small double room with dinner and breakfast. Room was small but as described so no problems here and had a lovely outlook on the gardens. The food at the 3 course dinner, including canapés, and a cooked breakfast were 5 star and service throughout was impeccable. Really enjoyed exploring the hotel grounds and spending time in the communal areas like the library and drawing room, both of which had a fire going. We will definitely return.

Historic rustic elegance. Like stepping back in time. The gardens needed a bit of tending due to some staffing issues but still beautiful despite that and it is also fall so things naturally die back. The staff was wonderful from the hotel to the potting shed. I plan to return one day and would highly recommend. Was sad they are having to remove the peacocks I think they should stay.

Our daughter and son-in-law recently held their wedding here. The hotel was beautiful and perfect for their day. We stayed for the weekend and every meal was excellent. The entire staff went out of their way to make this an extra special memory for us all. I would like to thank every one of you and highly recommend.

After a long overdue stay to the Roman Camp we were not disappointed. The service was exceptional and the food was fantastic. Lunch in the potting shed was brilliant and well priced. Dinner in the main restaurant was amazing and we were well looked after. Cannot recommend highly enough. Will hopefully not wait as long for the next visit

Just had a lovely stay here. The food was absolutely exceptional, both the restaurant dinner plus the breakfast. Would definitely stay on route past and do the 3 course dinner again!

We have now enjoyed our third fabulous visit to the Roman Camp Hotel. We had a feshly prepared lunch in the Potting Shed, a casual dining bistro in the grounds . We then enjoyed a memorable evening dinner in the hotel. A special thank you to Dan, a real asset, he was friendly, attentive and had an impressive knowledge of the food and drink. We look forward to returning.

Lovely locale, the campsite was quite good for an overnight stay and there was enough walking to fill a long afternoon. Great views from almost every angle as well, I recommend the summit. Just make you sure you dress for ticks, check the midge forecast, and brace yourself for the composting toilet!

Lovely trip to the island, very friendly staff. We walked for ages and enjoyed every little bit, believe or not we had 4G with EE. View were amazing, fresh air. History was great also. The boat that took us here had a class captian who also sang.

Beautiful view from summit point, worth the walk up. Managed to complete the circuit in around 1.5 hours (I saunter rather than walk...) Love a boat ride and that.

Well worth a visit. We crossed on the ferry from Bahama. We had a guided tourof the island, with an excellent guide, but there are information points and you can download a map to get your own information. We walked to the summit and round the island and to the burial ground, at a leisurely pace, in less than 2 hours, with 3 geriatrics in our group.

Decent place to enjoy your time with family or friends. A short ride from balmaha (10-15 minutes) is nothing compared to the view.

Beautiful little island with stunning views!!

Lovely views but we got bitten by ticks here

Very nice restaurant in a remote area. The pulled pork tasted quite good. Only 4 stars due to it was cold and not heated up. Free Wi-Fi. Fantastic spot if you’re hiking and in need of a break!

Super cute wee oasis! The breakfast was delicious and there's homemade jams, scones and cakes as well. I'll be back for the lunch menu next time! There's also parking available for customers, but it's also only a few minutes walk from the Conic Hill car park. So yummy!!! 😋

Lovely café / restaurant with a greenhouse-style seating available. Good food, great cakes. Helpful and friendly staff.

Terrific little place! I stopped for lunch while hiking the West Highland Way and the food was fantastic. Lovely setting! Good vegetarian and gluten free options too.

Fantastic!!! Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, and incredible food. What more could you ask for? Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area.

Enjoyed finding this cafe with a number of lunch avd dessert options. Tried the sausage roll with side of salad plus butternut squash soup made with coconut milk. It was so tasty, picked up some desserts to take home.

Very relaxing atmosphere with great decor. The lemon cake was amazing, the recipe "handed down the generations since 1957"! Our sourdough toasts were accompanied by wild wood sorrel collected from the nearby waterfront beach.

We were staying in Stirling and went on a day trip to see this area. We decided last minute to climb Conic hill since it wasn’t raining. It was rewarding climb to the summit with spectacular panoramic views across Loch Lomond and the islands. There were sheep in the pasture. It was very windy at the summit!

Absolutely stunning views, worth every single step. We were very lucky with the weather, so the trail was mostly dry, but it can definitely get and stay a bit muddy after rain. The first part of the ascent goes through a forest area. The steepest part is toward the very top of the hill, on a path that heads off to the right from one of the viewpoints up to the highest viewpoint. Much recommended for hiking enthusiasts!

Loved this place to hike. The views both from on the way and the top were amazing (in clear weather).

Conic Hill was part of our second day hiking the West Highland Way. It rained the entire walk up and down. The views at the top are impressive. Take care on the way down especially if there’s rain. The rock steps can be tricky to navigate.

That was a great peak for people who loves hiking and nature. Astonishing landscape! You may enjoy Loch Lomond view, when you arrived the peak of Conic!

Gorgeous views with only a few steep areas. My husband and I hiked this for our 10 year anniversary in wedding dress and kilt but wore hiking boots.

Amazing sites, really good walk. There is a good stone path that’s been put in to make it easier to walk up. Takes around an hour to get up to the top.

We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights. For its age, it's still in pretty good shape. Could use some TLC in certain areas but it was comfortable. Food was good and the breakfast had a good selection. It's walking distance to the boat tours and has plenty of parking. Nice bar and staff. We would stay there again if coming back to this area.

Location wise 5 star. Absolutely beautiful. Cleanliness of the rooms however... that leaves a lot to be desired! The word filthy springs to mind. Shower tray overflowing, the drain clogged with copious amounts of hair and soap scum. The floor itself was filthy. I spent 5 minutes cleaning with toilet roll and water. Needless to say we were walking on towels for the night. Breakfast was an array of rotten fresh produce, overcooked sausages and beans that had been left uncovered and hard pastries. Customer service 2 star. Upon discussion with the manager Claire Mulgrew a 50% refund was offered however this was never followed through upon and a complementary stay was offered instead. Over all a poor show from what could be an amazing venue if managed correctly.

Hotel on outside looks great. Rooms a bit tired, gone over with many coats of paint and silicone in shower. Saying that was pretty clean. Went to boil the kettle, black bits in there - someone had emptied a tea bag in there obviously.... Worst thing - bed - like a sack of potatoes - firm/uncomfortable and felt the springs underneath - asked if we could swap rooms but nothing available - worst three nights sleep we've ever had. Staff pretty friendly tho, the hotel was pretty clean but needs updating in places. Didn't eat here - much better food down the road at cu mara - definitely visit there.. Bar new seating but the cushions were again like concrete. Asked for a cocktail - just didn't seem like the bar staff wanted to make a bloody Mary - literally 3 ingredients - went to put it through and looked and said he didn't have chilli oil - not sure what he was making. Breakfast tbf was quite nice - enjoyed the square sausage, beans and link sausages - coffee was a strong hit but I liked it. Location was great for getting to different areas and never had a issue with parking. Views were good and the weather was nice so we did a lot of hiking. Firkin point close by as was conic hill if u wanted to make the trip to Dumbarton.

Called in for a drink after a day out in the area. Range of beers and whisky was a little disappointing, but you will find something to satisfy your thirst. Super friendly guy behind the bar who made us feel very welcome. Lovely seating area with clean and fresh decor and a relaxed feel to the place. Reasonable prices too, especially for a hotel.

Stayed here for 2 nights, I’m glad it was no longer. However, it is a good location, plenty of parking, well heated and the bed was comfy. Staff really friendly and making an effort with all customers. Dinners are higher quality than the breakfasts (I don’t know why they use better quality and fresher ingredients at dinner but not at breakfast!), neither are exciting. Overall the hotel is still a slightly better standard than your average hotel like Premier Inn. I have stayed in the nearby Arrochar Hotel and on balance would go back there instead next time.

We did have a comfortable stay, but the hotel is in definite need of some maintenance work. There were literal buckets catching water in the hallways and clear evidence of previous water damage on ceilings. Our shower had very little heat or power and the bottle of shower gel was just kind of left on the floor - no presentation or finesse. One of our mugs needed replacing as it was chipped. There were some dead wasps on our window seat/ledge. Our wardrobe also smelt like a heavy smoker had spent an hour in it. We didn't have a chair for the desk. The linen felt a bit thin. All relatively small things in isolation, but they all add up to detract from the overall guest experience. We booked via booking.com and got a discounted genius rate for bed and breakfast at £144 for a superior double room. At this price, we felt we had a good deal for a decent night's sleep and a relatively decent enough breakfast. But had we paid the full price of £170+, it would have been very overpriced. I see on their website that some of these rooms go for over £230 and it is most definitely not worth that! If they did a little bit of sprucing up, it could be a wonderful place to stay as the location is good and the staff seem nice. We didn't eat in the restaurant or use the bar on this occasion so can't comment on those aspects, but the public areas looked busy and had a nice vibe.

This hotel sits in a glorious situation on Loch Lomond, less than 2 minutes walk from the Loch Lomond cruise jetty. The exterior of the hotel and the views from it are breathtaking. If you're passing, stop for a drink or something to eat, enjoy the views and then move on. The accommodation here is nightmarish. Take the lift, apparently safe for 6, according to the manufacturer, but from the handwritten note safe for only two. It's lined with carpet from floor to ceiling that looks and smells like it's from the 1960s. We had room 124 originally. It was dirty and painted a shade of baby nappy content throughout. The windows were screwed shut and couldn't be opened. This was apparently unknown to the staff when we asked to change after one night. The room was basic with virtually no storage anywhere in the bathroom, which didn't seem to have been cleaned recently - the shower plug was full of hair. We moved to a another room, 228, mainly because it had windows that could be opened to allow air in. This room was similarly dated and unclean, with marks on walls, loose plug socket covers and an unpleasant smell throughout. Breakfast was, quite frankly, a joke. A buffet with everything left to congeal into either a warm mass or dried out beyond edibility. The staff were pleasant but totally without any direction or investment in making the hotel welcoming or visitor friendly. Tables in the breakfast room or bar were not cleared for hours - especially those outside the building and out of sight. In summary, the hotel looks great but smells bad and leaves you feeling that everything you have taken inside needs a good wash. If you want the views, park your car nearby and sleep in it - it'll be more comfortable.

Loch Lomond Waterfront is absolutely beautiful! We got married there in 2017 and came back this past July with our kids. The lodges are lovely, clean, and well stocked. The location is stunning. The serene property and beautiful accommodations offer a beautiful escape from every day life.

The accommodation posed as five-star luxury holiday rental, but the two lodges we stayed at were aged and poorly maintained, not to mention that so many facilities inside were broken or malfunctioning. The drainage in the shower didn't work, making it impossible to take a shower downstairs. The joinery work in the bathroom were broken or falling in several places. The water pressure was extremely poor and prevented my family from being able to take showers simultaneously, or even using a tap or flush a toilet while a shower is running. Our mattress was sunken and did not feel five star. The surroundings were pretty and well kept, and accessibility to local amenities and tourist attractions was good. There were not much services provided during our stay. And none of these issues reported could be solved before we left. Overall we feel that the lodges were over-advertised, and and that the lodges were not worth the money we paid for.

Overall a disappointing stay considering the large cost to stay at the lodges. Overall felt cat fished with the dated and damaged interior ranging from damaged kitchen work surface and poorly maintained appliances to the DIY vibe of the bathroom and mold in the shower. Also has issues with hot tub but that was swiftly dealt with. I commend the clean presentation of the lodge which was good for our 18 month old when crawling around. Luckily we didn’t stay much in the lodge on our stay due to the amazing views but if you want to treat yourself to somewhere nice look elsewhere

As other reviewers have said we also had a poor experience with the lodge we stayed in (mellerstain). The lodge is very dated and tired. All furnishing are old, outdated and mostly damaged. It is clear no money is being returned back into the lodges to update them. The lodge smelled strongly of bleach when we walked in and give them their due it did feel clean. However this is advertised as “luxury” “5 star” but it is anything but. For £400 per night for self catering you expect up to date appliances, luxury furnishings and a cosy lodge feel. It was our honeymoon and unfortunately was ruined. The walls were dirty/scuffed, paint was peeling off the radiators, mirrors were damaged, kitchen very outdated, air con control hanging off wall, door mats ripped in half, wooden skirtings all damaged, carpet very worn down. The alarm clock from the 90’s sent me over the edge…very “luxury”. Very dated bathrooms. The wood on the balcony’s is not treated or painted so it is rotting and looks unsafe. No chairs on balconies to sit out. I suspect this is a tourist trap due to location but nothing lives up to “luxury” with the interior. There was no management on when we arrived so we notified the handyman that we would be leaving (he was very kind but had no authority to help us). We got swiftly refunded which was great but very telling in that this isn’t the first time they’ve had to do this. Feel sorry for tourists expecting more.

I had a wonderful stay at the studio. The place was spotless and very well maintained, making my stay super comfortable. Check-in and check-out were hassle-free, which I really appreciated.

My family (with my wife and our 3 kids) recently had a fantastic stay here. The most striking features are the incredible tranquillity, the stunning view of the lake with surrounding mountains and forests, the lovely view of the Conic Hill on the background, and absence of crowds. We stayed in Mellerstain lodge which is just right at the entrance of Loch Lomond Waterfront site. Although the house is not new, it is pretty clean and well-maintained, and filled with all the necessary stuff for a family of five, and it made us really feel at home. This area is not crowded compared with other attraction sites around the Loch Lomond such as Luss, Tarbet or Balloch where there are so much crowds that you can't enjoy the nature. But here are so many things about peace and quietness. The shore is right at the back of the site and there is like a private shore for this lodge, and so there is no one else apart from the people staying at the lodges. It was so quite, peaceful and tranquil. We had so peaceful walks at the shore every morning, listening all the birds' chirpings. The surrounding was so quite that we could even hear the birds from the islands. At night, we had fantastic star-gazing because there was no light pollution, it was the clearest sky I have ever seen for star-gazing. (We were lucky enough to have an unbelievably good weather though.) The view of Conic Hill was amazing on the background of the lodges. If we weren't with the kids, we would do hiking to the top of this Hill (it was so close to the lodges). The lodge is also close to Balloch where we went for water sports. Again it is quite close to the beautiful Balmaha village. The only thing is the phone reception is not great in this area, and the Wi-Fi is not very good. Although it is not the most important thing for a holiday, there are times when the kids want to play games and it was not great. This is one thing the owner can improve. All in all, it was one of the best family holidays we have ever had. We will come back again in the future. 100% recommended.

Echoing other people’s sentiments - there’s nothing luxury about this place. We wanted a quiet peaceful place to stay so chose the shepherd’s hut at £140/night. It’s too expensive for what you get. Initially it’s impossible to find your hut if you arrive after dark: there’s no one to meet you and there are no signs within the park - we stumbled around until we happened to find our hut. The only map you receive is a pdf doc. There’s no map when you arrive on site and no lighting to help you see where you are. They are not private - we had a footpath literally that went under the window by our bed so you’re constantly hearing footsteps going past. In fact people are so close that we were convinced they were trying to get into our hut. The “outdoor space” is a plastic bench right in front of the hut, adjacent to the path and in a garden bit that is shared with 2 lodges. The luxury local handmade soap they brag about is a mini hotel bar of soap mass produced in Kent. No flatscreen TV despite it being listed on the website. The fridge broke and the freezer defrosted. The hut is very warm which I appreciate is great for the winter but too hot for summer and the heating constant reset itself back to 21C. Situated so close to the other lodges that if they were out using their outdoor space it was like they were literally sitting outside our bathroom having a party. The whole hut rocks when someone is brushing their teeth. There was mould around the shower. I mean - it wasn’t unpleasant and had it been cheaper I wouldnt have bothered to leave a review but it certainly isn’t worth £140. As someone else said - they have you hoodwinked when they tell you it’s relaxing, luxury, peaceful, tranquil, private. It’s basically an expensive holiday park with no facilities, no outdoor space and a footpath that you can walk down to the lake.

We spent two nights here during our Scotland road trip, and it was simply fantastic. Andrea is a wonderful host who makes you feel truly welcome. Her breakfast is a solid 10/10! 🤩 The rooms are clean and comfortably furnished. Definitely recommended!

Gowanlea Guest House is a wonderful place to stay! We arrived very late with delays to the already belated check in, but were greated really friendly and warm. We got the room to the street, which is really spacious and still very quiet. The bed was super comfy! There are a lot of breakfast options to choose from, it's fresh made with local products and everything we tried was delicious (and a lot!). Thank you for the nice stay :)

Brilliant place to stay for a night in Balloch on our way up further north. Andrea is a brilliant host who took excellent care of us, including accommodating our dietary requirements (gluten free and vegetarian). She provided gluten free biscuits and snacks, and a fully gluten free breakfast! This place is such great value, I fully recommend it.

Over the last decade, we have spent nights in different places, ranging from five-start hotels to farm nobody. The Gowanlea Guest House was definitely one of the best. Best one-word descriptor would be "charming." Beautiful house and accommodations, comfortable, great location, good food and a wonderful, friendly hostess. I wish we could have stayed longer.

Very nice guest house. Super friendly owner. Serves a perfect breakfast and even made sure our dog got an extra treat in the morning. We’ll definitely be back!

Non-responsive to email and enquiry form on their own website. According to booking.com there was availability of multiple rooms, but booking on their own website is cheaper. But after no resonse in a few days availability was gone without any communication...

Fab place, location is great, rooms are confy and clean and amazing service. Breakfast was very nice and has a good variety to choose from

I rarely award a full five stars—but this guesthouse is a rare exception. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable. John, who looked after us during our stay, was outstanding—warm, attentive, and genuinely helpful. He went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and was always available to answer questions or offer recommendations. The guesthouse itself was immaculate. Every detail, from the bedding to the bathroom, was thoughtfully maintained. The room was exceptionally clean and well-appointed, with a calm, welcoming ambiance. Breakfast was another highlight, with a generous selection of options that were both hearty and delicious. It’s clear a lot of care goes into the guest experience here. The location is serene and picturesque, offering stunning mountain views and a peaceful river flowing nearby. It’s an ideal base if you're exploring Glencoe or the surrounding Highlands by car. In short, this is a pristine, quiet, and beautifully situated guesthouse, made exceptional by both its setting and the personal touch of its host. Highly recommended.

Very lovely. We stayed only one night during our roadtrip but we really appreciated this calm and peaceful place. The view from our bedroom was beautiful, homemade shortbreads were waiting for us when we arrived there. Jon is a very nice host and is very helpful. The breakfast was incredible, and we even saw a red squirrel while eating! You can stop without hesitation!

Booking.com wouldn’t let me leave a review, so here it is. This was a great stay in every way. The local super and walkable to town, the en-suite room comfy and well-appointed, the breakfast generous and tasty. But best of all was the host, John. He is warm, gracious and witty. And I think his driving in Scotland tips are going to save me from getting into an accident! Thank you so much, John! Way higher than five stars from me!

Just stayed for a one night B&B at John and Jan’s lovely guest house, and would highly recommend. We felt welcome and at home from that start. John is very friendly and hospitable, and the room was super clean and fresh with fantastic views. An absolutely great cooked breakfast in the morning set us up for a long journey into the Highlands. Thanks so much!

One of my best experience of B&B. The breakfast is perfect every day. The cookies in the room is so delicious. John is very friendly and give us a lot of infos of the train and the village. The garden is lovely with a lot of lovely birds and we have seen the red squirrel！

We were there for one night in November last year, and we believe the host opened the house just for us. The host were incredibly hospitable and kind. Beautiful location, cosy and clean rooms and a wonderful breakfast. Would definitely recommend!

The kindest host I've met so far. He helped us with everything, cooked us a very nice breakfast and gave some info about scotland and our trip.

Had a stay over here for one night. Staff couldn't be more helpful or friendly. Surroundings are perfect if you have pets with you. Quick stroll to the Loch and under 10mins drive to the supermarket and restaurants. Rooms was a little tired but very comfortable and clean. Highly recommend well be going back for a longer stay. Robyn was shattered

**Review of Finlas View Lodge, Loch Lomond** We recently stayed at Finlas View Lodge in Loch Lomond, and unfortunately, our experience fell short of our expectations, particularly with respect to the management's responsiveness to basic comfort and cleanliness concerns. Upon arrival, we found a significant number of flies in the rooms and shower room upstairs in the property, which indicated a lack of thorough cleaning before our stay. The manager came to ‘fix’ this issue by hoovering dead and alive flies. On the first night alone, we discovered approximately 50 flies and continued to discover more the following 2 days between the double bedroom, the other upstairs bedroom and shower room. We understand that a rural location naturally comes with insect life, but the volume we encountered suggested a more serious issue. Additionally, a wasp nest on the property was spotted and highlighted to management, presenting a notable hazard, leading to one of our group members getting stung and forcing us to keep doors and windows shut to avoid further incidents. Unfortunately, we were not provided with any fly spray or other means to deal with these pests. Basic amenities also proved to be problematic. For example, we discovered that the dishwasher had been left uncleaned, requiring us to sanitise it before use. This oversight further suggested a lack of attention to detail in preparing the property for guests. Another critical issue was the heating, which made the property uncomfortably warm, especially at night. Management’s suggestion to "simply open the windows" was unrealistic due to the wasp and fly issues, which prevented us from ventilating the space properly. We also encountered issues with hot water availability on our last day, adding to the overall discomfort. When we raised these concerns with the management, we felt our feedback was dismissed without genuine consideration. Overall, while we appreciate the scenic location of Finlas View, we were disappointed by the lack of basic comfort and responsiveness, which overshadowed what could have been a relaxing stay. Ultimately, we can no longer consider Finlas View Lodge as an option for future stays. It could have changed our perspective if the owner had shown any level of responsibility or offered an apology. However, they seemed uninterested in addressing our concerns once they had pocketed our money. We recommend avoiding this property, especially if you're travelling with family, as there is little assurance that issues like wasp nests or cleanliness will be handled responsibly. NB. We were returning customers after a pleasant experience staying in the Oak Lodge earlier this year. I cannot in good faith give this business any repeat business and would urge others to rethink booking. You may not be as unlucky as us on our stay but, if you encounter any issues, don’t expect for the management or owner to handle any concerns properly.

Very very nice, amazing place for family where you can get privacy place and have hot top water and play ground as tennis and many other things

Fantastic place away from the hustle and bustle of day to day life, but close enough drive to Balloch and Helensburgh if you fancy a little shopping or scenic views. Pet friendly and The Cottages are well equipped and clean. Fully equipped kitchen if you fancy cooking dinner, plus a fridge to store any snacks. Theres also a washing machine and tumble dryer available and if you ask the housekeeping staff will give you tablets and softener to do any washing. Also there is Tennis court on site so you can play some tennis. It was a really pleasant little place and all the staff couldn't be more helpful.

I stayed there one night in May. It's a lovely place, really chill.

Had a great time here with a group of friends, ( second trip)the place was immaculate, the beds very comfortable. Located beautifully at the back in a great conservatory overlooking the firepit and hot tub and open fields. All appliances were clean and cupboards and drawers well stocked with everything you need for your stay. Despite the rain we had a brilliant relaxing stay and will be booking again.

Stayed as a half way mark between Skye and Birmingham, absolutely fantastic, everything you need, lovely room, great facilities inside and out. Nice and private. Owner and staff all very very helpful. Fully recommended and will stay again.

Truly beautiful lodges in a fantastic location! The hot tubs were maintained really well and the lodge was the perfect size. The hosts were so accommodating and made us all feel at ease! We will definitely be back!!

We stayed in The Wee Acorn Pod for two nights. The site is gated and set in well maintained peaceful grounds. The Pod exceeded my expectations. It was spotless, spacious and luxurious with it's own parking, with a welcome pack of prosecco and chocolate. Milk, tea and coffee are also provided. There is a slight noise from the main road, but the sounds of the birds and nature outweigh this. Robes are provided and the hot tub is under cover and checked daily. There is also an outdoor seating area which is partially under cover and a BBQ. Friendly staff welcome you on arrival and are very informative and helpful about their site, local attractions and places to eat. I would highly recommend.

Stayed here late Aug 2025. Team were amazing, professional, and very helpful. We stayed in Ben which easily sleeps 6. The whole lodge was spacious and very clean on arrival, and we loved the little welcome basket. During our week there we enjoyed the hot tub, which fortunately is under cover, together with outdoor furniture (it rained a lot!). In terms of location you really need a car to access almost everything, as even the nearest supermarket is some distance away. The lodges are behind a secure gate, but are adjacent to the A811, and unfortunately we were bothered by the traffic noise. However we had a lovely family break and can’t thank the team enough for their hospitality.

We loved this place! Such a great location for Loch Lomond - hill walking, sightseeing and visiting cute local coffee shops and places to eat and drink. The accommodation is 5* and hot tubs are excellent. Always spotlessly clean. We can’t wait to return again. The finishing touches are lovely too! From our pod we could see deer in the woods which was lovely - and we also got a glimpse of the northern lights.. Perfect trip.

The lodges and pods here are set back off the main road and are only accessible via an electric gate. The setting is lovely with clean, well maintained grounds and separate parking for each property. We stayed in the Wee Acorn pod which had a covered hot tub right next to it. Both the pod and the hot tub were very private and the front of the pod had an overhang to provide a sheltered outside seating area. The inside of the pod was spotless and very well equipped. It was actually more spacious than I expected, especially the lounge/seating area. The bed was comfortable and the shower was excellent. The staff were super friendly and helpful as well. There is a bit of road noise due to the proximity of the main road but we didn't find this too intrusive. If you want to stay in a pod that has everything, this is it!

Recently back from a girls weekend away and had a great time at Loch Lomond Luxury. The lodge itself was so spacious, homely and comfortable that it made it ideal for our weekend catch up, and the wet weather. Great having the hot tub there too, which we used a lot. The team were very helpful both before and after arrival and the lodge had lots of information about the local area. Would highly recommend and will hopefully return in the future.

We had the Wee Acorn Pod. Very cute and compact. Fine for a few nights stay. It has a hot tub which is a bonus. But no views unfortunately. Bed is small but very comfortable. Amazing what they have got into such a small space. Well done team.

First visit with Joanne and just delighted with my nails. Had a full pedicure and French polish for my toes that I love. Broke a thumb nail that morning and she did a great job with it. So friendly, professional and welcoming. Will recommend and definitely be back. Thank you so much Joanne x

I recently had an electrolysis treatment with Mandy and couldn’t be more delighted with the experience. Initially, I was worried about the potential pain, but surprisingly, the session was comfortable and virtually painless, although it takes time to achieve results. Mandy is extremely polite and exemplifies professionalism in every aspect of her work. The beauty centre itself is clean, welcoming, and well-organised, with very friendly staff. I highly recommend this place; it has truly become my favourite beauty clinic in Glasgow!

Had an amazing shoulder and back massage by Annette at Lookng Good. Haven’t been there for some time and I’m so sorry, I forgot how much I loved their treatments. Will be back soon. If you haven’t been, book a treatment- it’s soooo worth it.

Im having skin tag removal treatment, ive alot of very small skintags and they are causing issues with catching on clothing and when im getting washed. Janice Ann was great and we also had a good laugh together. Very professional and made me feel at ease would highly recommend Looking Good to anyone requiring any treatments.

I love the team at Looking Good! Bunch of talented ladies who are super welcoming. Never had a negative experience, never left unhappy with my nails/brows.

Lovely visit with Joanne. She fixed my horrid toes! All ready for summer. Very welcoming salon & Joanne was so easy to talk to.

I had a facial yesterday with the wonderful Mandy, she is the best beautician I have had, personable and professional, definitely will recommend and return

What can I say! What a wonderful Team Property Bureau in Helensburgh are. Just wanted to share my great experience in dealing with them over the last 12/13 years. My most recent experience was as a Landlord which Victoria dealt with very quickly and efficiently and thereafter the sale. It is hard to believe just how smoothly things went. All credit to Victoria for the speed in which she managed to move things along. Over the years I have had the good fortune to purchase property, let property and sell property through them and in all the different scenarios the service provided was outstanding. I must give a special mention to Victoria for the efficiency with which she carries out her role. She is very obliging and nothing is too much trouble. Andrew also has the same knack of making everything go smoothly and seem effortless. Recently they secured a sale for my property in a total timescale of 9 weeks which included the marketing/sale and date of entry. Absolutely amazing! I just can’t praise them enough for the first class service they provide. Thank you Property Bureau. Hazel Knapman

I would highly recommend Property Bureau Helensburgh for anyone looking for property. The team are always on hand for your calls or emails & getting things seen to quickly & efficiently. Victoria there was great to deal with over the past few years. Professional, polite & dedicated to her job seeing that everything was carried out to perfection. From picking up the keys there to handing them back years later nothing was any bother. Customer care & attention to detail is what comes naturally from Property Bureau with continuous support while dealing with them. Renting or buying this is the Team to work with!

I had a very good experience with property Bureau. They are quick to solve problems and any questions or information you may have! Victoria was lovely and made everything easy and made our move in and out a stress free experience! Would 100%recommend!!

I am currently in the planning phase of my permanent move to Scotland, and after they came highly recommended, I've been dealing with the Property Bureau in Helensburgh while I search for suitable accommodation. I had a very positive viewing recently and dealt with the lovely (and very understanding) Rachel Brown who I found extremely helpful. I was up front and honest with her which she seemed to really appreciate. I genuinely feel with both Rachel and Victoria's help, they'll find me the right acc

I live and work in the US and was working on getting a property valuation for a client for tax purposes. First off, Property Bureau is the only one that answered my initial email (I reached out to a total of 3 different firms). I worked with Andrew there and from start to finish he went out of his way to help me out which he didn't have to do at all. Very responsive, communicative, and on top of things. Would highly recommend utilizing this firm for any property related matters in the UK. Thank you for the help!

I had a great experience with Property Bureau in Helensburgh. Victoria was friendly, professional, and very responsive throughout – from helping me secure a rental property to supporting me through the check-out process. Everything was handled smoothly and efficiently. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking to rent in the area.

Great experience selling our flat with Property Bureau. Andrew and Victoria were so helpful, handled all viewings for us and kept us updated through the process. Highly recommended.

A great place to visit for different hikes. Especially if you love forest

Great place to visit and enjoy the spectacular scenery.

Very pleasant quiet hill walking. Good boots, waterproofs and a back pack of food and water recommended! Compass and map if you must!

Love living here. It has everything. Great for holidays as so many varied things to do. Come and enjoy our lovely park.

Great place for hiking with various different climbing paths

Beautiful part of the country.

Lots of forestry taking place so busy with log trucks,plenty of forest tracks to walk,worth visiting

Beautiful little B&B, close to the Luss pier. Room was perfect for a one night stay, comfortable and with everything you needed. En suite bathroom was very clean and a good size.

We had such a great time at the Alderdale B&B! The room is spacious and lovely and the included self service breakfast had everything we needed. We would have loved to stay more nights there!

We lucked out and found this place when we were unable to continue our drive during the recent flooding. Fortunately Alderdale B&B had a vacancy and we were so happy they did. Small little place with in room continental breakfast, which was honestly perfect for us. We ate dinner at the restaurant about 50 feet from our cottage and walked around the little village that next morning. This a great little spot that we will actually stay again during our next trip.

We stayed in this lovely cottage for four nights. The room was just perfect for my spouse and I. The continental breakfast provided was outstanding, we had everything there to choose from, such as fruits, cereals, breakfast bars, pastries, cookies, bread, a mini fridge with fresh orange juice and milk replenish daily, and other breakfast essentials. Our hostess was amazing and provided to all our needs. It's definitely one of the best B&B I've ever stayed at. Thank you Annelise for your hospitality!

Fabulous B & B with everything you need for a night away. We were there for the Loch Lomond seaplanes experience which I highly recommend. Clean room and bathroom with lovely breakfast options. You park in Annelise drive and walk 2 doors down to Alderdale. The Village restaurant is sandwiched in between which served lovely food. Whatever you do, do not park on the street outside as there is a traffic warden. Would defo stay again

Lovely B&B in the perfect location for exploring Luss and the Loch Lomond area. Annelise left lots of yummy breakfast items including breads, fruit, yogurt, cheese, milk, orange juice, and cheese. I would absolutely recommend! Love those beautiful azaleas out front too!!

Superb location, lovely and clean and warm. Very well stocked breakfast basket refilled daily, well stocked fridge and bathroom. Super quality furnishings and plenty of storage. Selection of games etc if needed and recommendations for places to eat. 2 minute walk to Loch - perfect all round and a lovely friendly owner.

It was very sunny day, about 30+ temperature. But we did enjoyed doing boat paddling, although we were started getting toast.

Awesome huge park area to explore. Lots of hiking paths along the lochside and into the grassy areas. Check out Balloch Castle. Terrific place for picnics, walking the dog or just breathing in the fresh Scottish air during a walkabout. Balloch Castle Country Park is one of the finest public spaces in the West of Scotland with fantastic views over Loch Lomond and plenty of things to see and do. The park itself comprises 200 acres of semi-natural and ornamental woodland, open parkland, formal gardens, meadow, play parks and shoreline. It is located directly on the south-east shores of Loch Lomond, on the northern edge of Balloch.

Highly recommended and worth a visit! It has a breathtaking landscapes. You need to check the weather beforehand!

Really nice walk along lake

A must visit place if you are in Scotland and Glasgow, there is a lot good place and location for swimming and BBQ

Loved it soooo romance

Brillant day even with the wet weather

I stayed in the Coorie for my wedding and absolutely loved it. I stayed the night before my wedding with some of my groomsmen and then stayed the night of the wedding with my wife and the night after. It's such a stunning lodge and the location doesn't really get any better. We will most definitely be returning here later in the summer to do some exploring and some activities on the loch. Definitely recommend for a night or few nights away. You won't be disappointed 👌

Myself and family had a great stay at the corrie lodge over the weekend. The lodge was spotless, modern and very comfortable. Also was very nice to receive a bottle of champagne from the hosts. Location is perfect and peaceful. A short drive away from some great places to visit. The only thing would be the wood burning hot tub does take a long time to heat up and to make this stay perfect it would have been amazing for this to be already burning away and ready for us on arrival. All and all a great stay at a beautiful location. Would recommend 👍

We loved our stay at Coorie and celebrated our wedding there. Fantastic location and perfect spot to get married. Loved the window seat looking out to Loch Venachar. Would definitely stay again.

Amazing situation right on the loch. Booking and entry all very easy with excellent communication. The living room and kitchen at the Coorie is great, with the view and the log fire it really is a special place. Only slight downside is the small double bedroom downstairs and no lamps in the house. However we would still return and recommend to others. We climbed Ben A’an and visited the local waterfall- would recommend both. In addition Mhor Bakery on Callander high street was great as was the Waverley and over at Port of Mentieth Nick Nairn’s was lovely for lunch. Will definitely return.

Lovely lodge in a beautiful setting. The welcome champagne was a nice touch! Great base for exploring the area by car. Would definitely come back!

The lodges are amazing, we rented both for our wedding at Loch Venachar and they were perfect for this. The hot tub was amazing and the location is incredible. The space for Carsaig in particular is perfect. The only slight drawbacks: -the lock on the main bathroom door doesn’t work. -the oven might be the single worst oven I’ve ever used. The lodges were very expensive and I’m not sure we’d normally be willing to pay that price, but with our wedding next door they were the perfect base for us.

Coorie is beautifully designed and presented. Stunning location and the walks around lake Venachar are idyllic. The hot tub and bbq, with the outdoor seating was amazing. The lodge had all the provisions and is very tastefully designed. We would happily return! Thank you. RG & family

Loved my stay in Loch Katrine pod, the location is stunning and the staff in the booking offices, boats, gift shop and cafe all so friendly and helpful. The pod was clean, warm, cosy and comfortable, best bathroom I've seen in a pod, spacious with a great walk in shower. I look forward to a return visit, maybe with a bit more sunshine to better enjoy the lovely deck area

Lovely Glen Eco Lodges pods and amazing showers. Only think I didn't like was the sofa bed as It was not very comfortable. That is why I gave 4 star instead of 5 We did find it too hot to sleep. Needed a fan to cool us down. We should have looked in cupboard next to plates as there is a fan in there but didn't realise that untill the morning we Where leaving. At least we know now for next time we stay. The fridge is a good size for few can drinks and some food like bacon ,eggs sausages and chocolates .

Spent two days here and enjoyed the experience. Our eco-pod was lovely, warm and clean. Scenery and walks nearby are amazing. Boat trips are available from Loch Katrine. Experienced a few midges on our last evening. Internet is not good, so don't go expecting to get online. Lovely eateries nearby

We had a great short break . Eco Lodge was fab ,staff were lovely, location was stunning, will defo return. Seen some reviews about poor WiFi Personally I was more than happy with the lack of WiFi, It was refreshing to get away from it all

We had a wonderful few days in one if the Ben lodges there. The staff were very welcoming and we were able to get into our pod a little early. The loch cruise was very interesting and expertly explained in a gorgeous island accent. The staff at the Cafe were also very accomodating and friendly. Our lodge needed a wee midge net repaired on our back window so we could aerate the pod without attracting the midges into the pod . Overall a really enjoyable experience in a very beautiful setting. We hope to return.

Huge thanks to the team on site who found a space for me! With 50mph winds forecast, lots of rain, and all my gear already sodden, it was a delight to have a night or respite at the eco pods. The pods are immaculate, have everything you need and are warm!!!

A lovely stay at the Glengyle lodge with my family. A great location to explore the Trossachs. Will be back.

Good location for exploring the Loch Lomond region. Accommodation provides all the basics but could be even better with a bit of an update on furniture. Be aware that the there is a charge of £50 for the hot tub!

Excellent hosts who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was as pleasurable as possible, very dog friendly accommodation we stayed in with beautiful views stretching for miles. Plenty of walks on the doorstep and the scenery/views are that amazing it’s worth mentioning again!

Amazing! Clean, cosy cottages in beautiful location. Hot tub available as an extra, and a lovely little outdoor space with cooking facilities. Cottage kitchen very well equipped too. Lots of parking. Absolutely loved our stay.

We were getting married at Killearn Village Hall and wanted a space that both our families could stay in without getting under each others feet. We rented all four cottages and it was absolutely amazing! We could jump between the cottages with loads of space for prepping big family meals. There was lots of light and space for getting ready the morning of the wedding and the games room was a great added extra the next day when we all had delicate heads...Beds were super comfy, the cottages gor really warm and cosy and they had everything we needed. We would 100% stay here again and really loved how quiet and secluded it felt.

Lovely cosy cottages that are hidden away from main areas. Have a private drive and parking which looks onto to some lovely views. I was met by Martin who showed us to our cottages an was given a lovely welcome pack. Included teas,biscuits, local milk and butter an a bottle of wine. They also went the extra mile an provided us with dog bowls, dog towels and even added treats for the dogs. The room was well presented an clean. Good wifi access. Will definitely visit again.

Lovely little cottage, welcoming an friendly atmosphere. Greeted with a hamper with bread wine an coffee inside. Very comfortable bed an fantastic cooking facility. Beautiful views out of the windows 😍

This would have been 5 stars but notices yesterday they had debited a further 50 pound from my account no correspondence from the owners. I contacted them to ask why. Apparently for a cleaning fee. Ridiculous as we left the place tidy. All dishes done, beds made and all rubbish in bags. Awaiting photographic evidence of this alleged mess! This happened to anyone else? I have just received photos of my we got charged a cleaning fee. A towel left on the stool, one cup in the sink and the sofa bed covers folded and laid on the couch, the rubbish wasn't recycled but was put into bags and tied as we didn't see the bins. Ridiculous and a con obviously making extra money during quiet season. Please be aware of this before you book here. Shame as the location was beautiful!

Had the most amazing 3days away with my love in lilyspad so much so we're coming back again in September with my brother and sister in law 💕 a big thank you Anne our host who couldn't be more helpful and friendly. #falkirk this is definitely a 10/10

Excellent stay and a great place to wind down! Anne was lovely and made us feel very welcome. Clearly a lot of effort is going into the location and making it a place to escape for a break.

Stayed in Poppy’s place with hot tub and had the most amazing time. Host is great and the homemade pancakes on arrival were so good! A great place to go for a relaxing get away.

It's a lovely static Caravan on the farmland with a hot tub. All you need for a chilled break is here and it's really comfy. The host is lovely and really helpful. We'd definitely come back.

stayed there with my partner we had a really good time the place is beautiful and the hot tub just adds to the experience, Anne the woman who greeted us was very helpful and polite we will be back again soon

Just home from Poppys place with my two little friends, what a relaxing stay, very dog friendly, Anne was very welcoming, mind of info if travelling out daily, good place just to chill, large field to walk dogs and a small enclosed lot field for the dark evenings. Highly recommended for a getaway from “it all” break o

Beautiful location, immaculate accommodation, fantastic wee find if getting away from it all is what you are looking for… but with only a 20 min drive to pick up that cheeky bottle of holiday wine. Anne, the host is very down to earth welcoming and friendly . A nice touch with the welcome pack of coffees bread and fruit juice to get you started…. And a very thoughtful home made tablet take away. The views from the outside seating are great, and our lab pup Kimbo loved the field on the doorstep…. For a change a place that does what it says on the tin (Great wi fi -a must for the box sets) and a fully equipped kitchen, with everything we needed. Loved it so much we are back 3 months later. Jane, Blair & Kimbo slice.

A very residential park for a quiet life style, it is placed far from the madding crowd. No children or anyone under 50 is allowed to purchase property, but may visit. Tailor made properties may purchased from about £110,000. Nearest shopping is a few miles away in Barrhead.

One horrible man works there amd stay there..his wee dog run all over the place.and he just let it

Very quiet with beautiful views

Beautiful place to live sceneries are just outstanding 👌

Liked the site but did not like the road into it

My mate Willy lives there brilliant.

Beautiful place to live!

This place is amazing! We are picky and don’t leave reviews often, but felt I needed to for Muiredge. They’ve thought of all the little touches, are really welcoming and have created a special place. Highly recommend. They have a huge ‘barn’ with sofas, a fridge, a stove and a darts board too! Great for families and groups.

Our 4th time staying at Muiredge. Everything was excellent as usual. Such an amazing location, exceptionally kitted out accomodation, a barn full of all the home comforts you will ever need and the most welcoming and helpful host you could hope for. Highly recommend

Spent the most tranquil weekend at the idyllic Muiredge. Our family of four stayed in one of their goregous cabins, Collie’s Wobbles and there was ample room with stunning views. They have a range of accommodations including a bigger cabins, Old Oak, with an upstairs, ideal for older kids. The railway carriage is perfect for couples and even has its own outdoor heated bath and a couples swing, it’s stunning. There is so much space for the children to run free allowing the adults to relax and take in the beautiful surroundings. It’s also the perfect location for group bookings and has a large communal barn with indoor and outdoor seating to spend your evenings. We were lucky enough to be there when there was a pop up event serving delicious food. Definitely recommend whether for a family trip, couples retreat or group gathering! x

Absolutely amazing venue. We are just back from a fantastic weekend at Muiredge with friends and young children. A weekend isn't long enough. The accommodation is great, the communal barn is a gem complete with wood burner and everything you need for a great glamping weekend.

What a beautiful, peaceful location. Can definitely recommend Muiredge for families looking to get out the city for a few nights. We stayed 3 nights in a warm and comfortable cabin. Loads of outside space for kids to run around, both on the site and moor behind. There is also a large barn with plenty tables, fire, games, fridge and cooking equipment if Scotland’s inclement weather decides to pay a visit. We mainly used the bbq and outdoor tables. ☀️Hope to be back soon 🌳

Spent a brilliant weekend at Muiredge. This is a must visit site. With a group of friends with children this is the perfect weekend break. The kids loved the open space, the adults loved the kool spacious barn, and everyone loved the glamping. Just go visit and you will love it.

I pushed myself clean out of my comfort zone in August and took my adventure-loving 5-year old away for a few days on my own. After scrolling through loads of uninspiring booking sites, I stumbled upon a recommendation for Muiredge in Perthshire. I could honestly wax lyrical for hours about how special our few days here were but suffice to say, I’d highly recommend!!! We stayed in the super cool Shepherd’s Hut but had a tour of all the huts and tents and they are LUSH. Highlights were: the crazy comfy bed, views and sunsets for days, blaeberry picking in the bonnie heather, the barn, the fire pit, the shower, the swallows, chatting with Farmer Angus (the warm and welcoming owner). Took about 1hr 15m to get there from Edinburgh. Gleneagles is next door, Perth Leisure pool is about 20 minutes drive and Blair Drummond Safari Park about 25mins. Very reasonably priced. Needless to say, we’ve booked to go back in the October holidays!

Wow what a stunning place! Has absolutely everything you could need and Ewa and John were great and easily contactable. Views are gorgeous and both us and our little Yorkie will miss it greatly!

This place ticks all the boxes. The location was our first priority as we wanted a rural private setting and this beautiful home definitely ticked that box. Not to mention overlooking a loch. Style of property, open, comfortable, big rooms, great outdoor space, with everything you need and more, not only this but the premium appliances and kitchen tools made you feel very much looked after and certainly no expense spared. All of the above ticked all of our boxes but one of the other things that really stood out to us was the service that Ewa and John provided. Their communication was above and beyond and you felt they were there if you needed anything but let you relax and enjoy your time with no interruptions. We stayed 3 nights in August and had the best time. We plan to book for April and depending on when our grandson has an operation we are hoping to do a short break in November also. We couldn't recommend it enough.

Simply, WOW! From the view to the toaster, everything about Knockderry Lodge is 7 star. If there was an 8 star rating, this property would get it. Setting aside the immaculate presentation (this is the cleanest property we've ever rented), the amazing welcome pack, the equisite decor and the top end quality of every whistle and bell (and there is EVERY whistle and EVERY bell!), the drama of both the property and location are hard to describe. Even the exceptional website doesn't quite capture how special this spot is. The lodge is phenomenal value for money and the service from Ewa and John, their attention to detail, quite frankly, exceeds the 7 stars. I can't recommend this property highly enough. Just don't book it when we want to go back!! 😉

Knockderry Lodge is a very special place to visit, and one we won't forget. The outstanding views and location is just the beginning and once we arrived, we were overwhelmed at the sheer luxury and quality provided. The attention to detail from start to finish was incredible and the hosts Ewa & John made us feel welcome and like VIPs from start to end. The home is finished to an awesome standard, and excellently appointed with high quality fittings and equipment. There was quite literally nothing missing and we continued to be surprised and delighted throughout our stay as we discovered more and more features, from the top of the range coffee machine to the full size juke box, the enormous hot tub to the highest quality TVs with Sky in every room (including outside next to the hot tub!). We planned to go sight seeing and explore the area, but never actually left the premises because we didn't want to miss a moment of it, even though Wellington boots and walking equipment is all there provided for you. The enormous kitchen provides every possible utensil and gadget, great for making meals in, although we opted to BBQ outside most nights, and even that is a Heston Blumenthal Everdure BBQ! This is the perfect place to go and unwind for all ages. We are a youngish family with a busy worklife who never usually sit still, but found this house enabled us to switch off and relax fully, the perfect antidote to our usual schedule. We cannot wait to return and would highly recommend Knockderry Lodge.

I took my sister and cousin here to celebrate my sister’s 40th birthday. We have stayed in a LOT of really nice places over the years but this lodge was honestly like walking into pure indulgent bliss. Everything we could ever have wanted was there. The couple who run it have created a mini paradise in the middle of a glorious Scottish hill with views that are hard to believe are actually real. Utterly breathtaking. Loved every single moment and didn’t want to leave. Thank you Ewa and John. You really have created something I’ve never seen before in Scotland. Heaven on earth.

Honestly exactly what we needed… stunning surroundings (we slept with the blinds open every night so we could sleep to the distant lights and wake up to the phenomenal views. Knockderry Lodge had everything we needed and extra, the honesty cupboard was a godsend. Dog friendly without feeling on tenterhooks, hard floors throughout and honestly perfection. The hot tub views were amazing, we sat for ages just in awe of the view. The garden isn’t fully enclosed for those whose dogs wander. Ours were incredibly well behaved and it wouldn’t prevent us returning. The dogs adored the space and loved being on sheep watch. The occasional sheep popped into the garden which was super cute to see before shooing them off. Knockderry lodge was absolutely the R+R we needed and absolutely adored this spot. THANKYOU so much for having us

This is a highly recommended place to visit with top views, top accommodation and top hosts. 5 out of 5 on every possible item, clean, tidy and comfortable and a truly enjoyable way to experience the art of relaxation. Highly recommended and definitely will return without doubt👍🏼

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the charcoal huts! It was just me on the site and I also (not so) conveniently picked a time when it was fairly cold, but I was kindly provided with extra firewood so it was super cozy. It was really easy to check in and out, and all the tips on what to do in the area were really helpful! Thanks for making my trip to Bute so lovely, I’ll definitely be back!

Absolutely stunning location overlooking the Kyles of Bute. We were 2 adults, 2 kids (5,9) and had a really great adventure and stay! We will be back.

What brilliant huts! We had 2 nights, after island hopping and staying in 4 other (carefully chosen!) places, and agreed this was the best. Brilliantly designed to be comfortable, cosy, with minimal environmental impact and incredibly tranquil. I wish there were more places like these…

This was a lovely stay! The huts are wonderful, the place is beautiful and you have everything you need for your stay. Great place to connect with nature and get away from the cities. 100% would recommend.

Had an absolutely amazing weekend, in such a tranquil setting. The huts are cosy and all your needs catered for - even spray to protect against midges! Loved every minute of it and will certainly be back soon!

Amazing views, perfect for a romantic short term get away!

Absolutely perfect. Such an inspiring place and loved the whole experience which provided me with so much inspiration for my art practice.

We had an amazing stay at the Wee Blue Dream. My husband, son, two dogs and myself stayed for three lovely nights. The cabin is so cosy with every thing you need. Really, the attention to detail was fantastic. Martin and Shannon were on hand if we needed help with anything. And we loved having the BBQ, pizza oven and fire pit to use in the evenings. We honestly had such a relaxing time and made brilliant memories climbing Ben Vrackie all together which is only minutes away from the cabin. I hope we get the chance to stay again!

Excellent cosy cabin with everything you need even has a pizza oven and gas BBQ outside, superb shower room and toilet ,beautiful views .Excellent host Martin & Shannon with lovely dog Lucy. Thanks for looking after our dog Lola while we went to Enchanted Forest above and beyond super hosts. Would highly recommend

Just superb, can’t recommend this place highly enough. Ticks every box.

Beautiful scenery

Nice and quiet place to stay and very easy access to amenities. Great for dogs who get a lovely welcome pack. Everything you need for self catering is provided here. The house is spotless. Owner is very helpful with any queries you may have. There are a few minor repairs needed in the house and I reported them on return home. I would stay here again.
