Very comfortable room and excellent breakfasts. Great attention to detail - an iPod/iPhone speaker and charger in the room was very handy. We stayed at The Old School House as some friends were getting married nearby at Loch Lomond - Hilary even offered to drive us to the wedding venue which was a lovely, considerate gesture.

The old school house in Gartocharn was a perfect place to relax. Hilary was knowledgeable and a great host. She provided us with lots of local information and cooked up a wonderful breakfast. A place you could immediately feel comfortable.

We were quite happy here and managed to find some very nice places to eat out in the evening but they were all a car-drive away so one of us had to stay sober. It was good to eat breakfast round a communal breakfast table and I would have liked the salmon but it needed ordering the night before. We... More

Friendly welcome; clean rooms; large comfortable guest lounge. Remote but not isolated within easy reach of good restaurants, Loch Lomond and main roads. An excellent B&B that offers a good breakfast and packed lunch for the next day. Very peaceful and relaxing; wish we had more time to stay longer; certainly will next time.
