This cottage was built in the mid 1800's for a Shepard and his family to live while they worked on our farm. It was changed over to self catering in the mid 1970's by my grand mother, then my mother and now I run the cottage.

I have lived most of my days here at the farms. I had a very happy childhood playing in the fields, trees and burn. I now get to enjoy watching my 2 children experience the adventures that i had with my siblings. I also run a cleaning company called Lomond Lass and continue to work with weekly clients. I work with my parent on the farm, doing what ever is required, from lambing, gathering (walking in the sheep from the hills), sheering and dipping the sheep. Sometimes it's as easy as "stand in front of that gap to stop the sheep from running the wrong way". I love to sail, I sailed with my twin brother for a few years with Team GB and my parents drove us around the UK and Europe to make it to all the important events. I became a Principal teacher at our local club Helensburgh Sailing Club and coached children and adults how to sail. Now that my kids are getting older I am hoping to get back into the sailing again soon.

You will be surrounded by Scottish hills, our livestock and wildlife. We have a beautiful reservoir at the back of the farm which is a lovely 20 min walk up our Glen. Once you step out to your garden you will have a stunning outlook to the south end of Loch Lomond looking towards Balloch. And just a short walk down our road you will be met with the panoramic views which will unfolds before you. You will struggle to find another view like it! There is a farm shop just a couple miles down the road called Auchentullich Farm Shop, where you can get yourself "a wee broon bag" full of tasty Scottish foods, which can include cheese, bread, biscuits, venison, beef, vegetables, milks and of course whisky! Luss is the nearest village at 4 miles (north). Its a beautiful village which is a prime tourism attraction. You can get a boat trip around the Loch from the pier or slipway. You can also get a ferry across to the east side of the Loch. Luss has lovely selection of places to eat, have coffee and teas or just a quick bite at the snack bar. A car is essential for staying with us.
