Ben Lomond Lodges

A small development of exclusive timber lodges, especially for those who recognise the very best. Our Ben Lomond Lodges are set around a small lochan, with south facing views to the hills beyond. Majestic Ben Lomond is to the west and a 20 acre oak and bluebell wood to the north is a natural haven for wildlife.

Situated on the edge of the new National Park- Loch Lomond and the Trossachs- the Ben Lomond Lodges form part of the Trossachs Holidays estate, the perfect holiday destination for visitors seeking an unsurpassed quality experience.

This is an area of shimmering lochs, craggy mountains and forested glens. Here you have space to ramble, wildlife to see, forest paths to cycle, fish to catch, golf courses to conquer or you may prefer to relax and soak up the scenery.


About Trossachs Holiday Park

The Trossachs Holiday Park is situated just south of Aberfoyle on the edge of the Trossachs.

Caravan pitch terraces are separated and sheltered by trees that also help to screen the caravans. This means that every caravan has its own view out but avoids the caravans themselves being a blot on the landscape. Static caravans have been painted subtle, natural colours. The amenity block is timber clad to help it blend in with its surroundings. A genuine red telephone box has been recycled as the park's pay phone.

To improve the overall appearance of the park no unsightly TV aerials are visible as cable has been put underground. Six telegraph poles were also removed and the lines buried.

The Park has an electric vehicle to move equipment and staff around the park. This vehicle is not only environmentally friendly but is also quiet so doesn't disturb the guests.

All light bulbs, where possible, are long-life economy ones and taps are mostly of the push down variety to help save water. Toilets have a sensor that switches on the extractor fan as people enter and because the park has its own private water meter care is taken how water is used. Unleaded strimmers are used to keep formal grass areas in trim, other areas are left wild. Bottles, cans and cardboard are collected for re-use/recycling.

The park runs a busy cycle hire service. This reflects the park's support for cycling, walking, the appreciation of wildlife and of the area's renowned landscape, rather than providing entertainment, meals or a bar. In addition, facilities of a local leisure complex are available to park guests for a nominal fee.

From the cycle hire shop there are 250kms of way marked forest trails in the Queen Elizabeth Forest Park with a variety of routes available for all ages. The Lowland Highland Trail, part of the National Cycle Network is also close by which makes the park a convenient overnight stop for cycle tourists.

Previous Awards include: Visit Scotland Customer Care Park of the Year, Best Park Scotland, Best Caravan & Camping Park in Argyll, the Isles, Loch Lomond, Stirling & Trossachs Tourist Board, Caravan Magazine Top 100 Parks, Caravan Life Top 200 Park

Our Visitors return year after year confident of guaranteed quality, excellent value for money and a friendly welcome. The Management and Staff have completed Scottish Tourist Board Training Schemes including Welcome Host and Scotland's Best and will go out of their way to make sure you enjoy your holiday.

Schools and other groups can be catered for with a cycle tour guide available if required. All members of the family can be equipped, from tots using a child seat or child trailer to the enthusiast who demands the latest Hi-Tech suspension bikes. The park always recommends using cycle helmets that are provided free of charge with bike hire.

The park extends to 40 acres including an oak wood that is a haven for wildlife. South facing landscaped terraces provides superb panoramic views over the Scottish Wildlife Trust (SWT) Flanders Moss reserve. There is a SWT collecting tin at reception to allow guests to contribute to the reserve.

A nature trail has been created through the wood for use by visitors. Some areas of bracken have been cleared and other sections planted up with appropriate Scottish tree species. This has made the wood even more attractive for wildlife.

An area of meadow has been left wild and the central path through it acts as a dog walk. The bracken is kept down here by an annual spraying under strict control standards. This is the only spraying done on site.

Over 20 nestboxes have been erected including ones designed for barn owls that nest in the area. However, encouraging wildlife did cause some problems when a pair of grey wagtails nested in the park's tractor!

The most recent project was the planting of 22,000 trees in 40 acres. Over four fifths of the planting i indigenous broadleaf trees, such as oak, ash, rowan and silver birch.

The park has won many quality assurance awards such as '5 star exceptional' and 3 star Bike Activity Centre from
