We had a great stay. The cottage is well equipped, everything that you would need, the welcome pack was a great extra, Anne is really welcoming. We booked direct and communication before the holiday was easy. There is ample parking. It's in a good location with easy access to the area, including Loch Lommond and Queen Elizabeth Forest Park to name a few.

Very pretty cottage… it’s attached to the owners house but with it’s own parking area and a small garden area. Very clean and well maintained, and well equipped … good grocery package, including milk, nice bread, butter,jam, oatcakes and smoked salmon…we only stayed 2 nights as we were travelling to Skye but would have been very happy to have had a longer holiday there. Great location to explore Loch Lomond and the surrounding area…. I gave 4 stars rather than 5 for location simply because the cottage is close to the road… people were driving too fast . Not a major problem though…. visitors just need to be aware. Friendly and helpful owner, nice cottage in good location to explore the area… we would return if visiting the area again.
