Location
Lomond Castle is on the southwest bank of Loch Lomond within Scotland’s first national park: Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. Some of Britain’s most spectacular scenery is around the Loch Lomond area. The loch is crossed by the Highland boundary fault and the physical characteristics of lowland and highland Scotland can be seen within a few miles of each other.
For sporting enthusiasts opportunities abound. The loch is well known for its water sports including windsurfing, sailing and excellent water skiing and wake boarding. In addition, there is superb climbing and hill walking in the area. The Arrochar Alps include four Munros (mountains over 3000ft) and six Corbetts, the best known is The Cobbler.
Fronting the loch is the Cameron House Hotel. The Loch Lomond Golf Club boasts an international membership and is a past host of the Scottish Open Golf Championship. The Carrick golf course is also nearby. Helensburgh is the nearest town and has excellent restaurants, bars and supermarkets. Hermitage Academy is the local secondary school, with Lomond School providing private schooling at primary and secondary levels.
Helensburgh Station has regular trains with a journey time to Glasgow of around 45 minutes. Central Glasgow (28 miles) can be accessed by car under normal driving conditions in less than an hour, and Glasgow Airport, providing regular domestic and international flights, within 40 minutes.
