Sightseeing

Loch Lomond is a mere 40 minute drive away with amazing beaches, Loch Cruises and great views. Part of the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. The surrounding area is home to red deer and oak woodlands. On the eastern shore, footpaths and cycle trails criss-cross craggy Ben Lomond mountain and the smaller Conic Hill: on the western shore, there are wee villages like Luss and walks for people and dogs, together with Cameron House (for seaplane flights) and Duck Bay Marina.

Arrochar, at the top of Loch Long, is a historic village on the way from Loch Lomond towards further west into Argyll. There are the mountains overlooking the village (the "Arrochar Alps") that have clear walking paths but only for the fit!

Booking in advance is important for this, and it's a very weather-dependent service. We took the trip around 12 months ago and it's around 45 minutes out towards the Isle of Mull via the hills and mountains around us.
