escape the urban sprawl; in steps Morelaggan House. This charming, country
cottage is set within the rolling hills of Loch Lomond and Trossach national
park; with enchanting views and an abundance of family friendly activities right on its’ doorstep. Families can bike and hike their way to some of the
finest areas Scotland has to offer, all within an hours’ drive of Glasgow,
leaving tots entertained enough to forget all about the famous
Loch Ness and in turn the three and
half hour journey to get there!

splendour. Each of the reception rooms and bedrooms offer beautiful views of
Loch Long and the Arrochar Alps so no guests need feel hard done by and the
open plan kitchen diner is the social hub of the house with warming aga and
plenty of space for family feasts. After a fun filled day guests can retire
kick of their muddy wellies in the boot room and head to the sitting room for
some coco in front of the roaring fire whilst little ones with a little more
energy head up to the well stocked, play room. In the summer months there is no
better place to take in the views and the setting sun than from the garden with
a catch of the day grilling on the BBQ.

Morelaggan House is a real home from home. The location is quite awesome on the dramatic, moody banks of Loch Long. The Aga is cosy and the open plan kitchen is enviable. Super provision for under 5s in a sweet, carpeted attic alcove with Scooby Doo videos, games and fun puzzles. Ensured we got a lie in. Visit Loch Lomond, Inveraray Loch Fyne and the Hill House by day and dine out on salmon, haggis, tattie scones from the hot plate and a wee dram watching great DVDs, or curl up with a good book, by night. We loved it.

Owner Profile
When we moved here 5 years ago, it was just the two of us but now we have 3 boys under 5! We have decided to move to a town to make day to day living a little easier but wanted to hold on to this house as it is so special. The house has been decorated and kitted out as a home and is very well equipped for both children and adults. We love it here and we hope you will too. |
We love it here because the setting is breathtaking. The views from practically every room still make us stop and look. The house is light and bright and we have no neighbours so can make as much noise as we like!
|
The kids love it because there is loads of space to run around in the garden. There are great places for walks suitable for buggies and easy bike rides. In the house, they have their own space to watch a DVD or spread all their toys out all over the place!
