Breakfast is extremely good. You can really tell that a lot of work goes into breakfast. Grab-and-go breakfast is also available for day trips. In addition, Andrea was always willing and open to answer questions. In terms of equipment, we would have been missing a refrigerator and a stove. For longer stays, cooking or simply storing food is a little inconvenient. The bathroom was also a bit poorly heated.

We felt very welcome. Andrea made sure we had everything we needed. The rooms are spacious and clean. The beds are comfortable. The breakfast is delicious and they go above and beyond for vegan guests ;). Very close to the Loch Lomond park .

We had a fantastic 2 night stay at Gowanlea Guesthouse with our two dogs! Andrea is a great host, makes you feel incredibly welcome, super dog friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Breakfast 10/10! Full Scottish breakfast and pancakes, big portions, yogurt, coffee/tea and juice. Takeaways available in the Main Street which you can bring back to enjoy in your room (plates and cutlery provided in the lounge).Great dog walks in the snow during our visit which is only a few yards from the door. The castle gardens with views across the loch - really fantastic and free!Thank you Andrea! Happy New Year!

Fantastic breakfast and wonderful service! unfortunately the acoustics in the room are not that good and in winter the bathroom can be a little cold! Other than that, I recommend it.

Andrea was the sweetest host!!My stay at the guesthouse was very enjoyable, the room was comfortable and there was a huge selection for breakfast - ranging from a full Scottish to french toast. There were vegetarian and vegan options too ?Location wise, it is pretty much right across the street from the Balloch Castle & Country Park and a grocery store.
