All one might need

Beautiful rural cottage with a comfortable bed and all one might need for a relaxing stay. The garden is fully fenced so even my escape artist chihuahua could not get out. Loch Lomond is just a 10 minute drive away and shopping and other entertainment can be found within a quick 15 minute drive. The host, Craig was very helpful and good for a chat.

Tour of west Scotland

Crosskeys cottage was comfortable, clean and well equipped. There was a fully enclosed garden perfect for our two dogs. The only downside was the mini roundabout directly outside the property, from which there was a constant stream of traffic a very short distance from cottage itself, which was noisy outside but insde not really noticeable. Overall a very comfortable stay, beautiful cottage, shame about the roundabout.

Crosskeys Cottage

On arrival the key was available in the lockbox (passcode supplied by Craig before we travelled). The cottage was clean and tidy. Kitchen facilities were excellent. Bedroom was comfortable and spacious. Bathroom was excellent, with shower and spa bath. Cottage is located in an excellent area, which was central to everything we wanted to visit. There were bus stops located outside of the property. However, we drove and didn’t use the bus service. All in all a beautiful property, ideally situated. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The cottage was very cozy and nicely decorated. With enough space to put our own stuff in. The outside space was ok as well, although situated at the road side which was somewhat busy and made our dogs bark at the occasional biker that passed by. We would definitely stay here again

Adorable Cottage, cosy, bien décoré et très confortable : on s'y sent extrêmement bien, comme à la maison. Très bien situé pour les visites. Seul point noir, le Cottage se trouve face à un rond, et donc il y a beaucoup de circulation...

Perfect wee break

My partner and I (and our dog) had a lovely couple of days at Crosskeys Cottage in November this year. The cottage itself was lovely - everything looked new and well-cared for. We were both impressed that all the switches and important things were clearly labelled. The spa bath was a particular treat and we loved using the stove in the evening because it was pretty nippy outside. The location is great for reaching Helensburgh, Loch Lomond, and for making your way up the lower West Highlands. Thank you, Alison and Craig, for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage!

Great holiday base for exploring the lochs

Beautiful little cottage. Everything you need supplied apart from food and drink, there was a pint of fresh milk in the fridge which was a welcome bonus, Washing machine really useful but no washing line to hang it out, but pegs supplied under sink though. It has its own dedicated wifi, which works a treat, The cottage is next to a small roundabout and you could just hear the traffic in and out but didn't detract from the cottage. Grassed area where you can sit and round the side a barbecue and small area with table and chairs. Would we consider booking again? Definitely
