The Old Farmhouse occupies a magnificent location on Loch Lomond and offers an oasis of luxury and peace on a secluded working farm.
The house provides eco-friendly accommodation with one of the finest views from a self-catering property. All the rooms (except the bathrooms) and the front decked area enjoy a panorama of the largest loch in Britain and Scotland’s most southerly Munro, Ben Lomond.
Ospreys nest near the farm in summer and provide great entertainment as they fish in front of the house, but extensive birdlife is constant all year and deer, badgers, pine martens and red squirrels are residents - bring your binoculars! Experience the stunning scenery of Loch Lomond and its islands by taking a speedboat tour with Chris from the farm’s pier, or take a picnic to the islands, arrange a champagne cruise, or visit by boat one of the many loch-side pubs and restaurants. Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Stirling are easy day trips by car or public transport. There is much to learn from your hosts about the history and ecology of the farm, the loch and its islands. Kayaks, or SUP (paddleboards) are available for hire.
Glen Coe, Inveraray and Oban make for a great day of exploration and the West Highland Railway Line – one of the most scenic railways in the world – stops at Dumbarton – and many visitors chose to explore part of the route to Oban, Fort William or Mallaig. Our local distilleries (Glengoyne and Auchentoshan) are less than 20 miles away and offer a range of tours for beginners or connoisseurs of the ‘water of life’. If you wish to bring a boat when you stay in the Old Farmhouse, you should contact David (07739 046947) to check availability, which cannot be guaranteed. Berths are available to guests staying in the Old Farmhouse at a 40% discount of the full rate and assisted launch and retrieval are £40 each way. There is also an option to launch at the slipway in Balloch.

The best self- catering accommodation I have ever booked. Freda and David are very helpful and friendly. The house is scrupulously clean, well maintained and equipped. There is plenty of information available for towns and events around. I am booking again for next year this will be the 8th year in succession.

We (2 adults 2 Teenagers) had a warm welcome and we quickly felt at home. We enjoyed taking a short walk around the farm, fishing (not catching fish) from the pier, paddling and a boat cruise with Chris. It's a giid base for short trips to Conic Hill, Glasgow and Stirling. Fresh water from the own supply is a great feature too!

Absolutely loved this cottage. Beautiful location, really great communication from owners and lovely welcome treats on arrival (delicious homemade pancakes, bread and jam). Cottage itself was spacious, comfortable and had everything we needed for a very enjoyable stay. Really enjoyed chatting with the owner and visiting the cows too. Highly recommend!
