Return visit

This was our second time staying at Bonnie Banks. The property is amazing, quiet location (there is very little traffic noise from the nearby main road) and lots of birdsong. An owl flew past each evening and I 'might' have spotted a pine martin! (Although can't be certain as it was dark.) Lots to do nearby, or just chill in the hot tub and sauna.

First trip to Loch Lomond

Good location on a private Estate. Admin were extremely helpful with any request for more information or help during our stay, I was confused by the private signs all around and didn’t want to disturb others. Once Liz had sent over a helpful map we had no problems getting around locally and soon found our favourite places to eat in walking distance, a most welcome find. Good size en suite for all rooms (I would suggest taking non slip bath mats if that’s something you use at home) overall an excellent stay.

Spacious & well equipped cottage

A great find for a family get together. The cottage was well positioned for exploring the area. It had everything you would need, and more. We visited the sea life centre and a booked the spa at the Lodge on Loch Lomond. A beautiful area and so peaceful . I’m not sure why the hot tub water needs checking every day as we had to get out of it one morning to allow for the testing having only just got in !

Wonderful stay in a beautiful part of the country

We had a family weekend in the house, it was spotlessly clean with plenty of space for everyone. Its the little touches that make the difference, the welcome pack, hot tub and sauna were a real bonus. The location is good, a 30min walk takes to to Duck Bay where you can get a drink and excellent food and right next door is Cameron House hotel if you wont something a bit posher. Over all a great weekend in a wonderful house.

Love Bonnie Banks Cottage

Great stay in this beautiful home. 3 bedrooms provided ample room with a modern kitchen and living room, enough for 3 couples. Liz was fantastic in helping with any questions prior to our arrival, and once there, with great suggestion to take advantage of local scene. My only wish was to have it a bit closer to Cameron House. Great experience overall.

Great cottage and location

We stayed for 7 days, had a wonderful time. The cottage was perfect for a family of 4 and 2 grandparents. The location at Loch Lomond is brilliant and it provides as excellent base to explore the amazing national park. Take your bikes and head off into the bike trails to find the rivers and waterfalls.

Another fabulous stay at bonny banks

This is our 3rd stay at bonny banks for a family break. It's an ideal set up for our needs and has everything you would want in self catering accommodation. Location is fab, clean with plenty of room. The hot tub is just the icing on the cake. Perfect.

A wonderful stay in a fantastic cottage

We were tired mums looking for peace and relaxation, this was the perfect place. The cottage was well appointed, spotlessly clean, warm and comfortable. The hot tub was an excellent addition as was the sauna. We placed a Tesco order, everything arrived and then we relaxed in the wonderful surroundings for 2 blissful nights. We made the short 15 min walk to Duck Bay on Saturday for a late lunch and then back to relax. I would highly recommend this property, we will certainly be back!

Happy family holiday

We had a lovely, chilled week at Bonnie Banks. The hot tub and sauna were well-used and enjoyed by everyone. The property is spacious (there were six of us for some of the week) and had everything we needed. Not quite enough barbecue weather, but that's Scotland for you; we did manage two though and being able to eat outdoors was lovely. Only suggestion for future improvement would be the addition of an EV charging point.

Wedding weekend

We booked this for attending a wedding at The Cruin. Whilst being near to the venue it was not as we thought within convenient walking distance. That being said, the cottage was lovely. It was comfortable, spacious and well equipped. The addition of the sauna and jacuzzi is excellent and great for relaxation.

Amazing short break

There were 4 of us staying at Bonnybanks Cottage and we had a fantastic stay. The Cottage has everything you could wish for. It is exceptionally clean, lovely comfortable beds and very spacious. We were so lucky with the weather and took a sail to Inchmurrin for lunch. 2 of our group walked to loch lomond (not far) for a swim. We had arranged for a mobile therapist to attend one day so we could make the most of the jacuzzi and have a spa day. All wonderful. This was my 3rd stay at Auchenheglish and won't be my last. FABULOUS

weekend break

The house had everything we needed for a relaxing family break with plenty of space inside and out for the adults and an active 3yr old. The only disappointment was the lack of direct access to the loch as promised in the website "a short walk through woodlands" as every path we tried had Private signs displayed. This had been one of the main reasons we had chosen to stay in this cottage and I think the company needs to clarify what guests can access on the estate with clearer/more detailed maps.

Birthday weekend

The cottage is lovely and the surrounding is beautiful. The owners have ensured that everything you might need is provided for your stay. The stay was to celebrate my 60th birthday and my family were supported to arrive early so that they could set up a surprise for me arriving which was lovely. We did not use the sauna but the hot tub was great. If I could make one recommendation it would be for the roof of the pergola above the hot tub to be able to close as it was raining when we were there and although you are wet in the hot tub it was cold rain so did not use it as much as we would have liked, and this could be an easy change. The only complaint I have was that the time went by too quick and did not want to leave. Will need to visit again in the summer months.

A little more thought needed.

We have stayed in better cottages, sadly. Lovely size house although close to the main road so lots of road noise. Lovely bathrooms, modern and clean. Kitchen sadly lacking. The oven was very greasy. One wine glass that wasn't made of plastic! No cloths to wipe the benches. I don't believe the hot tub been cleaned as we found a plastic bottle floating in it and brown scum in the foam? I don't own a hot tub but I assume this isn't normal? Very little I formation about the local area and eateries and I couldn't see a guest book which often can have handy hints for your holiday. There is a menu for the Chinese restaurant Princess Rose, please don't go there. It's the worst food we have ever had and very expensive. We have definitely stayed in worse places but we were surprised given how much we paid

Wonderful , comfortable stay

Our family of six loved our stay at the beautiful, exceptionally clean cottage. When we discovered the dryer wasn't working on our first night and left Gordon a message, he drove over a new dryer the next morning! Liz was very helpful and communicative before and during our stay. Definitely recommend.

Excellent!

The house is lovely, very comfortable, spacious and well equipped. Customer service is fantastic and they go out their way to ensure everything is as it should be. We had a minor problem and someone was sent out to fix it within a short time. The location is beautiful, not far from Loch Lomond and we enjoyed a long scenic walk. This was our second stay here and we’ll definitely be back again.
