From the offset of booking our short 4 day break at Oak Cottage, through to our departure, Marguerite and Andrew ensured our stay was relaxing and trouble free. The accommodation has been built and maintained to a very high specification and is immaculately presented. All the essentials for a family are on hand (including the very well tempered labrador to play with) and being able to watch the children playing in the fields and woods without a care in the world was in itself relaxing for us. The walks in the local area were peaceful, with the call of the cuckoo, deer silhouetted on the hilltop and new born lambs everywhere. The views of Ben Lomond from the bedroom window was fabulous!

As a base for exploring South West Scotland, the location was perfect. On the relatively quiet roads (compared to the South East of England) and through spectacular scenery, we ventured through Argyll, being at Loch Fyne and Inverary Castle and Jail to the West and Stirling Castle to the East in less than an hour. The shores of Loch Lomond were just minutes drive away.

The local hostelries in Drymen and Balloch served great food and good quality local produce was widely available in the local villages - the smoked salmon from Inverawe Smokery was excellent.

Our recent holiday in the Loch Lomond area was made complete by the excellent accomodation in the beautiful Rowan cottage. The cottage was equipped to the highest standard. It was modern, clean and exceptionally comfortable. The setting was idylic and very central for touring the surrounding areas. For those who wish to eat in, supplies were easily accessible and for those who prefer to be treated, nearby Drymen was a haven of fine eateries. Marguerite and Andrew could not have been more welcoming and helpful. It truly was a home from home.
