5 Star Holiday Let Located In Historic Luss

Award winning holiday home situated in Scotlands most preserved Historic Village.

The location could not be better, smack bang in the middle of Luss Village. Luss is unlike any other Village in the UK, preserved more or less as it was in the 19th century. Strict planning laws and high property prices have left this tiny Village almost unchanged. The perfect place for anyone visiting to fully relax and to take in the genuine Loch Lomond spirit.

We all want our guests to feel the 5 star status we have been awarded. From cleaning, maintenance and customer service we take great pride in providing the best for our guests. We love this house and its history but we never forget that its here for you to have a great vacation so use it to the full and have a great time.

The Strone is a 5 star graded, 4 bedroom holiday home which is situated in the village of Luss within the Loch Lomond national Park Scotland. Sleeping up to 10 guests your booking at The Strone comes complete with many quality features that you would not find with standard holiday lets. Our guests with children love the large secure private garden complete with play house and swings.

A perfect example of new meets very old. This property began life as a crofter's cottage in 1850 and had an extension in original local stone built in the 1990s. Our extensive renovation of the property in 2013 included a full refit of all internal fittings and furniture.

Glasgow City and airport are a 40 minute drive from the property and Edinburgh airport can be reached in around 1 hour by car. The village itself has local services for food and dining with larger shops available in Balloch which can be reached by water bus or taxi.

We offer a range of in house services including concierge, housekeeping and catering. Our concierge can prepare the property to your specifications before your arrival including baby packs, flowers and a kitchen full of your requested food.

Fabulous 5* Stay
This property is beautiful and has everything you could possibly need for a comfortable & wonderful, luxury stay in picturesque Luss. We stayed for 3 nights with family of 9 and were blown away by the little touches that make this place so beautiful and unique. The host was fantastic with prompt communication and did not hesitate to advise when we had trouble with having no hot water (we all had baths/showers on the first day one after another and washed up by hand and thus used all the hot water not realising it was a tank system - which was unfortunate given how many of us were staying, however, the shower in the blue en-suite room was an electric shower and so has hot water at all times FYI and my advise is don't wash up by hand - use the dishwasher! After this, we didn't have a problem). The huge home-made cake and welcome drinks were a lovely touch too and went down a treat. The kitchen contains everything you could possibly think of. The beds were comfortable and the whole place was spotless and spacious. The mini bar set up in the lounge was a favourite for drinks next to the cozy roaring fireplace and plentiful seating. Would love to return in the warmer months to make more use of the garden area and the 'hidden gem' playhouse in the garden brimming with toys. Cannot fault it, a perfect stay.

Great place to stay!
Needed to stay near to Loch Lomond for a wedding and this house was perfect! Beautifully decorated & good sized rooms (a lot of cushions!!), fab kitchen and lovely bedrooms with great quality linens! Because of the time of year, we didn’t use the garden but it offers so much! All in all, suited our needs perfectly and as described in the description. Thanks for having us!

The Strone
A beautiful house in a beautiful place. Thoughtfully equipped and a pleasure to stay in. Lots of positives. Having been expected to pay for logs it was clear you build in costs for weekly flower delivery seems more useful to forget the flowers and build in costs for logs instead. Towels small and not so absorbent. Couldn’t find guide to house and facilities anywhere- eg the whereabouts of said logs, recycling- some basics. Anyway, small niggles that didn’t spoil the experience.

The Strone was an amazing home in the heart of Luss. What charm and luxury! Colette was very responsive and so was Christine. We had a wonderful time for our mother's 80th birthday. Everyone in our party was very impressed...will make sure to come back toThe Strone when we visit Scotland again.

Ideal sanctuary
The location couldn’t be better - in the middle of everything but completely removed from the very busy town. The grounds are beautiful and amenities inside and out are top notch. While the home is well appointed it is also comfortable. Our family of four adults had everything we needed and there were many lovely surprises and welcome gifts that made our stay special. The kitchen was the most well stocked kitchen of any home we’ve rented in the past 20 years. Collette was very responsive and accommodating. The bathrooms were delightful with most having rain showers and the master being a spa like experience. The only down side for us was the master bed was extremely firm. All the other bedrooms were well appointed and had a medium level of firmness that was perfect. Colette provides wood for indoor and outdoor fires which were wonderful. The home is a short walk to the general stores and to lovely restaurants. We couldn’t ask for a better central location or home to stay in.

Five star house in a beautiful village
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Colette's house in Luss. We were made very welcome on arrival and the house was a wonderful mix of modern facilities and traditional décor in keeping with the listed building. It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Although Luss is a little busy in the daytime with tourists as it is a beautiful village, it is easy to get away from the crowds on the ferries across the loch or walking from the village. There is a choice of good restaurants and cafes and it makes an excellent base to explore Loch Lomond, Loch Long and the Trossachs. Although the weather was not good enough to use the garden when we were there, there are is a barbeque, tables and chairs set in a tranquil and beautiful garden for long summer nights. We thoroughly recommend Strone House for a couple or much larger group.

Wonderful 5+ holiday home
The Strone is in the centre of Luss village, plenty of parking with everything you could possibly want for a comfortable, luxurious stay. Exceptionally clean, well equipped with so much charm and character. 10 of us stayed and there was plenty of room for everyone. Everything is state of the art from the Sonos speakers, porcelanosa shower, bikes for all ages and boats for the more adventurous. So much to do around and about and if the weathers bad, the house has plenty on offer. We will definitely book here again, we all fell in love with it x

Stunning property in an amazing location ! Definitely has the wow factor!
Our stay was booked as a treat for family we had visiting from Australia and this property certainly didn’t disappoint! With age groups ranging from 9 to 73, everyone was catered for and the attention to detail was second to none. Sheer luxury and so relaxing - just wish we could have stayed longer! Will definitely be booking a return trip.

Beautiful, cozy, well-equipped property!
We visited Luss in late June and enjoyed a couple days at this unique and very enjoyable property. It combines the best of a vacation property (hotel elegance and quality) and a tasteful, welcoming home. The owner has wonderful taste, and I enjoyed the sophisticated yet cozy cottage feel. We have two young daughters who enjoyed the well cared-for garden with its flowers, swing set and play house. My parents and husband and I loved the comfort, space, and privacy the house offered. The house was a great place to cook meals--the kitchen is amazingly well-equipped with nice touches like pretty tea pots and cups, as well as good cookware. We loved having breakfast in the dining room overlooking the garden. The coffee maker is very nice and took a bit of figuring out but provides freshly ground coffee on demand with such ease. This was a welcoming place for rest and relaxation during our tour of Scotland. Loch Lomond is beautiful--we might recommend taking the time to drive around to Balmaha as an easy outing if you want to experience the quieter side of the lake. That said, Luss is charming, the lake is lovely, and this house was a fantasy vacation property for our family. We recommend it highly.

Absolutely Perfect Holiday Rental
This could not have been a more perfect place to stay, from the location to the details to the home itself, we loved it so much! Colette thought of everything and there was nothing we needed that we couldn't find - the outside space was spectacular and our children loved the swingset, the play house, the hidden tire swing, the bikes, and the table tennis. The rooms were beautifully decorated and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. The location right in the middle of Luss was fabulous, and we loved exploring the village after all the day tourists left! I would recommend this to anyone and we hope to return someday!

Perfect stay in the most beautiful location!
I'm not sure any review I leave here can do justice to just how fantastic our stay was. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel welcome in a home away from home! Colette greeted us and made sure that we had everything we needed for our weekend ahead celebrating my sisters 30th birthday with the whole family. She'd went out of her way to add special little touches which really added to the excitement of the stay. The house itself is stunning with everything that you could possibly need. Very spacious with large family rooms and beautiful bedrooms so that you also had your own little peace of tranquillity. The surroundings of the house are lovely, with us taking advantage of the sunny weather using the bikes which were provided and going for nice long walks. We were so sad to leave the house, but have made so many precious memories together and can't wait to return in the near future! Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay!
