Sightseeing

This is a fantastic example of the genius of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. The ambiance inside is sublime and as it’s only a few minutes from the apartment it’s really worth a visit. Did I mention they do coffee and cake!

You’re in Helensburgh so you need to visit Loch Lomond - there’s a good reason it’s regarded as one of the most beautiful lochs in Scotland. (In Scotland we have ‘Lochs’ instead of ‘lakes’). It’s truly beautiful and there’s no better way to see it than from on the water.

Hill walking

One for the hill walkers. The Cobbler is at the head of Loch Long at Arrochar. Truly stunning views from the top. At 884 metres high its ‘only’ a Corbett but one of the most impressive summits in the southern Highlands.
