    from Dundee , GB  on  February 22, 2010

    "Faultless stay. Rosemary and John to great care of us during our stay, even to the point of giving us a lift to our wedding reception (thanks again rosemary!) which is hardly a service many commercial hotels would offer you! Highlight had to be the breakfast in the morning, absolutely fantastic and would visit again just for this!!" (108985927)

    "Throughly enjoyed it and would go back. Very quiet and peaceful with a great local pub- The Clachan- which served the most amaxzing steaks i've ever tasted. Great experience- would definately go back." (108352167)

    Great b&b, excellent facilities and Rosemary and John were extremely kind and helpful. Great breakfast. Rooms were immaculate and all facilities avaliable. Balcony area was amazing, although the weather was too cold to appreciate it!The day before Valentine's day we came back to pink foil wrapped chocolate hearts on our pillows and valentine's chocolates on our dressing table. On Valentine's morning we were served pink cava with our breakfast. Overall brilliant experience.

    from Limavady , GB  on  October 29, 2009

    "I would highly recommend this accomodation. It was within walking distance to the local village which had a couple of nice pubs to eat in. It was a great location to explore loch lomond especially if you have your own transport. " (108197512)

    The owners were extremely friendly and very helpful. Room was lovely with patio area and bed was huge. Had an excellent choice for breakfast and it was yummy.

    "Absolutely brilliant - we wouldn't have been able to do some of the amazing stuff we did if it wasn't for the owners. (We even ran into the owner later in the day after we had checked out and he helped us out again!)" (108712718)

    The customer service from the owners was amazing and they went above and beyond to help us! The breakfast was great, room very comfortable and the complimentary chocolates a nice touch.

  • 9/10 Mark ( Young couple) 

    from Glasgow , GB  on  January 21, 2010

    "Very pleasant stay. Would recommend to others." (108977560)

    Spacious room, large comfy bed, good shower, balcony, plenty of tourist info/books in room and a short walk from town

    Front door bell not working! Could have been cheaper for out-of-season time of year. We weren't so keen on the breakfast sausage!

    "This is a lovely hotel! John and Rosemary could not have done more to make our stay enjoyable. I have a food intolerance, which I had advised them of in advance of our stay, but I could not have expected the preparations that they made for me - first class! I would have no hesitation in recommending Bramblewood to my friends and family." (107489981)

    "Great stay - made all the more pleasurable by the hosts and the great room." (107764496)

    The room was fantastic - spotless and well furnished. The shower was also amazing to come back to after a lot of walking in the day! The breakfast was also great. The hosts were friendly and attentive and offered us great advice on things to do in Loch Lomond and also gave us recommendations for places to eat for the rest fo our trip around Scotland.

    There were none.

  • 9/10 Simon ( Mature couple) 

    from Selkirk , GB  on  June 8, 2009

    "Excellent ... We would go back again. The thing that really impressed me was the attitude and willingness to please of the owners ... really very helpful, and very pleasant. " (107935870)

    Excellent bed, staff were very accomodating with breakfast and stuff. Lovely room, lovely grounds, very quiet area.

    Not a great deal of sound insulation between the rooms ... the chap through the wall snored all night, and it was loud enough to keep me awake ! The room was very clean, but the shower hadn't been rinsed down properly (the odd wee hair in the shower basin) and there was a tub of somebody's hair product lying on the floor in the bedroom which, really, should have been spotted, and makes you wonder if the room was hoovered prior to our arrival ... how could that have been missed ? Saying all that though ... the room, in every other respect, looked spotless, and was very nice.

  • 10/10 Stephanie ( Young couple) 

    from Glasgow , GB  on  February 10, 2009

    "We had a lovely time at Bramblewood and will definatley be going back again. Rosemary and John are lovely people and made us feel very welcome. With Drymen Sq only a ten minute walk away this place is perfect for relaxing in the quiet but close enough to local bars and restaurants. Perfect." (107963557)

    We where given a very warm welcome by Rosemary and shown to our very modern, immaculate room. We were only a short walk from the Drymen Sq where we were having dinner, we were provided with torches as it is very dark. We had a lovely peaceful night and a delicious breakfast in the morning to set us up for our journey home.

    Only issue I would have is having to vacate by 10am. We would have liked to have had longer in the morning to have a leisurley shower and possibly a short sit out on the balcony with a cuppa to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
