Why stay here ...

Gartfairn Farm CL is a quiet site, set on a working livestock farm, in Loch Lomond National Park, overlooking Loch Lomond. Adults/Children/Pets all welcome. The site offers 5 hardstanding pitches with electrical hook-ups and plenty of space for awnings etc.

The site is an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area, being 1 mile from Balmaha, on the banks of Loch Lomond. Balmaha boasts a shop, village pub, visitors centre plus boatyard where trips to Luss, Balloch or round the islands may be booked.

The West Highland Way runs through Balmaha, so fantastic walks up the loch side, or to the top of the Conic, which is 1,200 feet, with the walk starting from the car park in Balmaha.

Drymen is 3 miles from the site and has numerous pubs, restaurants, butchers, post office and gift shops. A bus service runs from the farm road end to Balmaha, Drymen and Balloch.

Further afield, we are 50 miles to Edinburgh, 28 miles to Glasgow or 23 miles to the historic city of Stirling. Explore Stirling Castle or the Wallace Monument.

Gartfairn Farm
Great little site, with easy access to Loch Lomond shores just a short drive, or walk down the road. Elevated location gives stunning views from your pitch. Very quiet location.

Superb CL with outstanding views

Gartfairn Farm
What a gem! Easy to find and in an excellent location within walking distance of Balmaha (1 mile). However the unquestionable appeal is the views over Loch Lomond. Absolutely stunning, particularly if you get one of the 3 front pitches. Very peaceful, no road noise. In fact no noise at all except the sheep! Never been before but will definitely return.

Just stayed for 3 nights in our caravan. Well kept site, EHU, very basic CDP. Great access to Balmaha and Loch Lomond. Blessed with the weather and simply stunning views. Will definitely return when passing next.

Hidden Gem

Gartfairn Farm
Lovely Views, easy access to Loch & Ben Lomond owners where friendly, quiet and peaceful until the last couple of days where someone was starting a chainsaw up a 4 in the morning, not sure if it was on the farm or further in the Forrest. the only gripe is I booked a pitch in the January at £15.00 per night, but middle of March I get an email informing me the price was increasing by £3.00 per night to £18.00 per night
