Accommodation Advise in Scotland
 
My DH,mself, sister and Bro-in law, are taking a trip to the UK next week for close to three weeks.So excited!!! We've been planning our adventure for the past 2 years now and we are in countdown mode! We are flying in and out of Glasgow, and have the trip well planned for as much as we want it planned, but we would love to visit the Loch Lomand area before we fly home to Canada. Any advise on any charming places to stay that is drivable to the Glasgow Airport for a 1pm flight? We'd love to stay somewhere that makes our last night memorable. Price is important, but we are casual people who appreciate good value and great food....to say nothing of the scotch...which is a given.I hope this post isn't too disjointed as this is my first on this awesome forum. Thanks so much

Anywhere on the loch is driveable to the airport for a 1pm checkin.

I personally prefer Hotels, and suggest you try the Drovers at Inverernan

Thanks for the advise Sheila. I will certainly look into that. I can't seem to find a website, so if you know it could you please advise. Thanks

Have a lovely time, Sheila (France ?). And how about finally meeting up this August ?

sheila Jun 28th, 2006 01:27 PM

Yes. Let's put something in the diary, otherwise....

Not sure how I did that. Posted to the wrong thread:(

janisj Jun 28th, 2006 10:01 PM

That's OK - I posted about launderettes on that other thread. Now go pack for your holiday . . . . . .
