    Staff found my forgotten brush and kept it for me. It's perfect, has everything I need - Wi-Fi, free parking, TV. Great for outdoor activities too - hiking, cycling, fishing. Going back for Easter.

    The room was just what we needed after a night out - cozy, comfy, and like a home away from home. It had a private bathroom with free toiletries, so we felt refreshed and pampered.

    The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the lack of a mini-fridge. But hey, that's just my personal preference.

    We had a fantastic time at this cozy cottage. the owner was so welcoming and made us feel right at home. the cottage had everything we needed, including a well-equipped kitchen for cooking our meals. We also enjoyed the board games and books provided, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Plus, the comfortable beds ensured a good night's sleep. the location was convenient for both exploring nearby attractions and easily traveling to the city.

    That the cottage wasn't within walking distance of local shops, pubs, and restaurants. We also struggled with the internet connection and couldn't get Netflix to work due to someone else's email being signed in.

    Loved the free WiFi, felt like I was back in the 18th century with all the history. The garden was a nice touch, felt like I was in my own private paradise.

    Was a bit disappointed that the garden didn't have unicorns and fairies, but I guess you can't have it all.

    We felt right at home in this wonderful cottage, nestled in a beautiful location. The landlady was so welcoming, making our stay even more special. The cottage had everything we needed, and the welcome pack was a delightful surprise. The stocked cupboard was incredibly handy! The surrounding nature was breathtaking, and we enjoyed exploring the highlands and lowlands during our trip. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and had stunning views of the birds outside the lounge window. Despite a few minor drawbacks, like intermittent Wi-Fi and traffic noise, our overall experience was fantastic. We highly recommend this cottage for creating lovely memories.

    We had a wonderful time at this cosy cottage. The touch tone lamps in the bedroom added a nice touch. The owner was lovely, helpful, and approachable. The starter pack provided was delicious and the beds were really comfortable. We enjoyed cooking with the ample kitchenware and playing the board games. The books and maps were great for exploring the area. The location was convenient, with easy access to Drymen, Loch Lomond, and Glasgow. Plus, the horses at the owner's cottage next door were lovely. We even left some items behind and the owner kindly offered to post them to us.

    100% Recommend this hotel.

    We had so much fun exploring Drymen and Loch Lomond. The owner was dope and gave us all the deets on the best spots to hit up. The beds were hella comfy and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook up some fire meals. Can't wait to go back and turn up again!

    The only thing we wished for was a sick sound system in the cottage so we could blast our tunes and have even more lit parties.

    The private bathroom was a total game-changer for me! It felt like my own little oasis, and having free toiletries made me feel so pampered. As an adventure traveler, I appreciate the convenience and privacy it provided.

    Honestly, the only thing I didn't love was the lack of a bathtub. But hey, that's just my personal preference, and others might still find enjoyment in the spacious shower.

    We had a wonderful time at a cozy cottage in the heart of the Scottish countryside. The owner was incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. The cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, including touch tone lamps in the bedroom which added a nice touch. The starter pack provided was delicious and a lovely surprise. The beds were super comfortable and we appreciated having plenty of kitchenware for cooking. We enjoyed playing the board games provided and exploring the surrounding area with the help of the books and maps in the cottage. Being just a short drive away from Drymen and Loch Lomond was a plus, as we got to explore these beautiful places easily. we had a memorable and enjoyable stay at Ballat Smithy Cottage.

    This place is mind-blowing! The cottage is so cosy and has the most jaw-dropping touch tone lamps in the bedroom. The owner is super lovely, helpful, and approachable, making us feel right at home. We had all the amenities we needed, including a tasty starter pack and plenty of kitchenware for our cooking adventures. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and we enjoyed playing board games and exploring the surrounding area with the provided books and maps. The location was perfect for day trips to Drymen, Loch Lomond, and even Glasgow, with easy access from the cottage. We also adored the horses at the neighboring property. To top it off, the owner kindly contacted us about some items we left behind and offered to post them to us. The welcome pack was a nice touch, and the cottage had everything we could possibly need. Even our kids slept in thanks to the comfortable beds. We will definitely recommend this place to everyone and hope to return one day. The landlady was amazing, and the location was brilliant, with everything within a short car journey. We loved our time here, with beautiful nature surrounding us, and had a blast exploring both the high and lowlands. Plus, the weather was wonderful! We couldn't have asked for better accommodation.
