We were just there for one night, but Colin was most helpful in making us reservations for dinner at the local pub and showing us a great paved path to walk to the village in five minutes. This home was well stocked and clean and would have been comfortable for a longer stay.

Lovely 2 bedroom cottage

This is a beautiful property. We really enjoyed our stay and meeting Collin, his wife and their pets. The beds were comfortable and coffee and tea was provided. The cottage was an easy walk into town for dinner at the Clachan. We would stay here again.

Spent a few days Drymen, doing day hikes. The Knock was a very nice place to stay and relax. We walked to dinners, 5-10 minutes. The property owner Colin was very helpful before our visit and met us upon our arrival. Would book again!

Lovely Property

We stayed one night on our way back to Edinburgh. The property is lovely and we especially enjoyed the sheep who grazed near our windows. Colin is a lovely host. The communication was always prompt and he gave us a great recommendation for dinner.

What a gem!

Our family of 5 loved this place! What a wonderful hideaway - wish we could have stayed longer! Decorated beautifully, fantastic bathrooms, it’s a home away from home. We would love to come back and enjoy it longer and take advantage of all the walking trails and the village of Drymen. It’s perfectly situated to enjoy Loch Lomond. Thank you Colin & fam for sharing your property.

Country Living at its best

The unit was perfect for us as we are two couples and the unit was equal in every way, The bathrooms were the best that we experienced in the three weeks that we have been travelling. The kitchen and sitting area was perfect and the parking was ideal. The location was a short walk to the local town that had a little bit of everything. The Clachan Pub and restaurant served up an ice cold pint of Guiness and easily the best food that we had on our entire trip.

Great spot

We were in the Loch Lomond area for a couple of days and this place and the little town of Drymen were exactly what we needed. Clean and modern and comfortable. The listing says 2 bedrooms but then lists a third bedroom which is not a room but two roll away cots. The kitchen is modern but not super well equipped, but fit for our purpose. We enjoyed our stay.

The Knock was great

We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at the Knock. We would go back there in a heartbeat. There are a few differences in the pictures that are shown on the VRBO site, but they are changes and upgrades to the furnishings made by the owner. It has two bedrooms and two baths. There is spacious parking for one or more cars. The owner is on site and is most helpful.

We enjoyed our stay, loved the location just a short walk to the village. Accommodations and hosts were very nice. The property needs some maintenance and privacy is minimal. There is a single interior door that separates you from the host so you can really hear each other. Overall a very nice stay, just things to know if they are inportant to you.

Great spot in Drymen close to Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park for our trip itinerary. Check-in was seamless and great cozy spot for one night. The local restaurant in town that others had recommended was one of our top favorites from our trip in Scotland - the Clachan.
