Drymen Tourist Information

The Bothy is near the village of Drymen, with excellent access to Stirling (20 miles east), Edinburgh (50 miles east) and Glasgow (20 miles south). The villages of Drymen and Balfron are 3 miles away where one can find the Post Office, Pharmacy, Bank, Doctor, Dentist, and local shops. This area of Loch Lomond, Scotland's first National Park, offers an ideal base for your vacation. It is within comfortable distance of Stirling, Edinburgh, Inverary, or Culzean castles, or for the grander taste Scone and Holyrood Palaces. 

Every Wednesday you wish to listen to the pipe band playing on the village green in Drymen. The more adventurous can continue in the local theme by joining in one of the regular Ceilidhs (Scottish dance and music evenings) also held in Drymen.

If your interest is tracing your Scottish roots, Park Circus, Glasgow or Register House, Edinburgh are both within easy reach. If architecture is your thing then visit the Charles Rennie Mackintosh Hill House and see the stunning architecture and design of one of Scotland's best-kept secrets. 

If you are hungry there is an abundance of homely country pubs and restaurants in the local area. If you want to cycle, fish, play golf; walk, sail, relax or simply look at the place.
