Elmbank

Loch Lomond


Just off the Square, this welcoming, walker-friendly place has an interesting variety of rooms, including self-catering options. The friendly owner runs a relaxed ship and is flexible, so will happily do deals for singles and groups. The two rooms looking over the garden are absolutely fabulous on a sunny day. There's help-yourself cereal and tea/coffee; breakfast is available in the pub opposite.
