Cardross Estate Holiday Cottages

Fantastic communication property was perfect for our fishing trip to the Lake of menteith

Beautiful country property. Very hard to find.

The house was gorgeous and very comfortable. We did have to download an app to get a precise location which was unexpected, but easy enough to use. The beds were very comfortable and the location beautiful. If you are looking for a rural retreat in order to explore the beautiful scenery, it's a wonderful choice! Word of warning: careful with the upstairs windows as flies like to congregate on them!

We booked to stay in Yew Tree Cottage in early March and had a wonderful time. The cottage was perfectly clean, the check in instructions were clear and the directions were very helpful. Everything worked as it should and the fireplace was amazing, there's even a coal shed to keep you going for an evening or two, with the option to buy more directly from the owner. Our dog had a great time running around in the well-kept garden. We were especially thankful for the wee torch provided. The only things that could improve the garden would be a picnic bench or dining table and a wee bit more dog proofing. For example, adding chicken wire around the bottom of the entrance gate. But if you don't have a very curious dog, this won't be a worry! The cottage is less than 40 mins drive from Loch Lomond, 30 from the Devil's Pulpit and 15-25 to lots of other villages. The nearest supermarket is about 15 mins away. The only walkable restaurant is Nick's, which we highly recommend. It's 30 mins walk away, but we drove because it's pitch black at night time along winding country roads! We would (and will) stay here again, the bathroom has been modernised compared to the photos. As has the living room furniture. A wonderful cottage. Thank you!
