A gem of a place. A lovely cottage in beautiful countryside on the doorstep of the Loch Lomond and Trosachs National Park. Well set up for our family of 4. There's a plethora of things to do in the area. We've visited the owner's modern dairy farm which was an amazing experience. Highlights of our trip include a scenic cruise on Loch Katrine, a day at Blair Drummond Safari Park and red squirrels spotting at the Lodge Forest Visitor Centre, all a short drive from our accommodation. We would love to stay here again!
