Dubh Loch sits in an enviable position with magnificent views from every window in an acre of private gardens and woodland, complete with it's own stream running through it. 3 bedrooms (1 king with en-suite downstairs, 1 double and 1 twin upstairs) to accommodate 6 people. 2nd full bathroom with free standing bath and separate shower.

Fabulous family break
Amazing cottage with beautiful views. It was well equipped and had the most comfortable beds!! We were lucky enough to have a visit from the pine marten and the red squirrel.

Everything you want from a cottage
Very clean, tidy and warm. Appreciated the phone call from Susie as we were enroute and extreme weather warnings with floods. As we’re weren’t that far away it was nice to know of alternative routes. The house has everything you need to make the stay comfortable. Although previous holiday makers had seen pine martins at the cottage we didn’t but plenty of birds. The chocs and wine were a bonus. Thank you Susie and Simon

Wonderful house and location
What a beautiful, beautiful house and location. We visited during the best two weeks of the summer, so we had the pleasure of using the house inside and out. Very nice, well kept garden. We encountered the gardening team the day before we left. They were there maintaining the gras and surroundings and were gone as swift as they had gotten there. No problem at all. There were some minor issues in the house when we arrived, which where resolved ever so quickly after reaching out to Simon and Susie. So eventually no problem at all. They are great hosts and reply very fast if you may ever need them. There is lots to do in the near vicinity, even if you don’t like to hike like us. The drive to the house is a tad long and the West Highland Way was quite a well used road as we found out. Lots of hikers and cars coming both ways on a road that is at some points a little tight for two cars to pass by. We had a great stay, can really recommend. Oh, and thank you for putting up a charger for Electric Vehicles, I used it every day to charge up my PHEV. 😊

Dubh Loch Cottage
Dubh Loch Cottage has a fantastic location eight miles along the (dead end) road from Drymen to Rowardennan on the way to Ben Lomond. The house is situated in a clearing in the forest, with its own burn running down the hill at the back and its own lochan across the road at the front, and evening visits by pine martens! The house itself is really well furnished and fitted out. Dubh Loch Cottage is a great base for outdoor family (with children aged 22, 19, and 16) holidays, exploring Loch Lomond and the southern highlands. We had an amazing stay and would love to return!

Perfect house and setting!
Couldn’t have asked for anything more! The house had everything we needed, hosts went out of their way to be helpful, and the views from the windows were perfection!! The stream in the back sounds amazing too! We went on numerous walks, took a ferry to beautiful Luss, a wonderful beach is walking distance, and the taxi service was so helpful, as we didn’t have a car (Steven especially, who also recommended a wonderful pub in Drymen, The Clachan and drove us everywhere!). Highly recommend✨
