A substantial Scottish country house, this impressive retreat is perfect for that big group getaway you have been planning. Sleeping eight adults, plus two children, the four-bedroom lodge nestles in gorgeous grounds, 1.5 miles from Drymen, in the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. Explore your magnificent surroundings, with its hill, river and lochside walks. For keen climbers, Ben London is just 12.5 miles from the lodge. Venture 6.5 miles into Balloch to book seats on a cruise out on magnificent Loch Lomond. Head onto the water under your own steam by hiring a day cruiser or rowing boat. Any youngsters in your party might like to visit the Sea Life Loch Lomond Aquarium while you are here. There are lots of opportunities for mountain biking close by. Those who enjoy hopping onto the saddle can hire bikes in Balloch. Venture into Glasgow, 17 miles away, for the day.

Enter via the porch, where you can hang coats and leave your shoes. Spread out and enjoy the ample, light-filled space you have here to share with your friends or family. The large, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner will be at the hub of your socialising throughout your stay. Take turns at cooking for each other, dine at the table and unwind in front of the crackling wood burner. Another lounge/diner also boasts a wood burner. Gather in this lovely room for lively movie and games nights. Open the French doors to the garden on summer days so everyone can wander outside into the sunshine. A family shower room and two of your bedrooms are also down here. These include a twin and a king-size, with an en-suite bathroom. Two more king-size bedrooms and another family shower room can be found up on the first floor. There is also a lounge up here with a sofa bed that can be used by two children.

Sit down to summer lunches on the patio. Sizzle supper on the charcoal BBQ and dine under starry skies on clear nights. Bubble in the hot tub to relax your aching muscles after long hikes through the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs. The beautiful, wider, shared grounds are also there to be enjoyed. There is ample private parking here.
