| Great location on the side of Loch Lomond and next to the Great Highland Way trail and Ben Lomond.Lots of room for cooking and socializing. | ||
| 27 Jul 2012 Graeme, Australia | 80% | |
| The remote location on the loch was wonderful if you have your own car. But the cooked breakfast was dreadful. No choice of what was offered (much I didn't want) and everything was fatty and geasy. Time to life the catering game as it is much worse than other hostels visited in the UK. | ||
