    Handy location and great base for exploring the local area.

    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
