Guests that stayed at this property said

Most guests find the cottage to be clean and well-maintained, with only a few isolated reports of cleanliness issues. These seem to be exceptions rather than the rule, as the majority of reviews reflect a high standard of cleanliness.

The location is consistently praised for its proximity to local amenities, restaurants, and attractions like Loch Lomond. The village of Drymen offers charm and convenience, making the cottage an excellent base for exploration.

Guests are very satisfied with the comfort of the beds and the overall cosiness of the cottage. Some guests mention the sofas being less comfortable, but this does not detract significantly from the overall positive feedback on comfort.

The welcome baskets are frequently mentioned and appreciated, indicating a high level of thoughtfulness from the hosts. It should be noted that such gestures, while common, may vary and are not guaranteed for every stay.

    The cottage is finished beautifully and is very well equipped & the owners clearly think about their guests, leaving a lovely welcome pack. Great space for a small family & the garden area is a very welcome space in the summer. The lounge is super-cosy & great on a wet afternoon for watching a movie! The village of Drymen is the perfect location, with 3 gorgeous cafes (Skoosh a gorgeous little tea room, Alfie & Co has the best coffee ever & Drymen Bakery has delicious cakes), 2 beautiful pubs (The Clachan especially for food & The Ptarmigan for a drink) & amenities with a great butchers (the pies are highly recommended!) & shop. Conic Crafts & the Beer Shop are lovely local additions to the village. The swimming pool at The Buchanan Arms is lovely (newly refurbished) & £8 pp per day for use of the facilities - great for a rainy day. Piping on the Square on a Thursday night is a very special tradition to witness - beautiful! The village is a perfect base for the surrounding area - Luss, Balmaha, Balloch, Stirling are all fantastic days out & not too far to venture. We would love to return! Thank you
