"Comfortable stay, lovely surroundings, close to Luss."

9.0

A lovely, comfortable apartment with all you need, including a sunny conservatory. True to the description and pictures. Really good communication - Thank you Liz.

A lovely location but I thought we would be able to walk to the lake but private properties all around with no entry signs.

"Smashing spacious cottage"

10.0

Very spacious cottage, and very comfortable. Well equipped kitchen. Ideal base for exploring Loch Lomond and surrounding areas. Really cosy and has a fabulous conservatory. Only stayed 2 nights but would happily stay much longer next time.

Nothing to not like.

"Lovely spot for a weekend with the other half"

8.0

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights and really enjoyed this lovely old 19th C building conversion. It has beautiful handcut stone walls exposed throughout the interior and well-maintained, high-quality features. I think the photos make it look darker and more cramped than it is (which is always a nice surprise!). If you're an architecture/renovation junkie, you'll love this spot. Though the furniture and decor were a bit worn and outdated, the lodge was very comfortable and well laid out. With the only bedroom on an open mezzanine level, it's really only comfortable for a couple, but with a lounge and large conservatory, it has a generous amount of living space for just two people. With the exception of a decent set of Russel Hobbs knives, the kitchenware was sparse and basic, but on par with most holiday lets at the same price point (in my experience). The location was perfect for attending a wedding at the Cruin, with a well-defined footpath all the way along to the venue. Yet it was quiet and secluded enough to feel like we were on a quiet getaway in between festivities. The bathroom light on a sensor left me soapy and in the dark a couple of times, but overall the lodge is comfortable and the managers helpful and communicative. I would definitely stay again.
