Situated in its own 10 acres within a private country estate overlooking Loch Lomond , its islands and magificent mountain backdrop, Vorlich Cottage provides a unique location with unforgettable scenery. The Lorn Mill is a traditional Scottish farm steading and has been owned and lovingly restored by the same family for the last 30 years. There is a private tennis court in the garden for guests to use - it has spectacular views of the Loch so may put you off your game!
The approach to the cottage is up a private wooded track revealing your first sight of Loch Lomond as you round the bend to the Mill. There is plenty of private parking when you arrive. Your front door is reached following a gravel path round the Mill.
There is an entrance hall in which to hang coats and leave boots. The open-plan kitchen /dining room leads off from the hall. The kitchen is fully equipped with oven, hob, dishwasher, fridge/freezer and round dining table for 6 . A garden door leads you onto a tiled area for outdoor eating, the garden and tennis court.
Off the entrance hall is the downstairs bedroom (can be made up as a kingsized double or twin beds). It has an ensuite shower room with large power shower, basin, WC, heated towel rail and underfloor heating.
The staircase leading up from the entrance hall takes you to the upstairs sitting room and second ensuite bedroom.

Summary: If you want to step off the treadmill and take time out for many ‘stand and stare’ moments Vorlick Cottage is the place for you. We had a very relaxing stay due mainly to its location - it’s fabulous. The view onto Loch Lomond, and its surrounding fells and Bens is captivating. Lucky with the weather (early April) we sat outside most evenings (wrapped up warm) in the Christmas tree wood in the garden watching the changing colours of the loch and fells as the light changed. With only the sound of wind in the trees, chinking glass, lambs and their mother’s bleating, birds’ chorus, and the odd thwack of balls on racquets, until the chill drove us back into the warmth and comfort of the cottage. There can’t be many tennis courts with a view like this! The cottage’s quality of decor, furnishings and beds are excellent, we slept very well. Claire our host, was very welcoming and we followed her suggestion for a peaceful walk through the private estate, joining Balloch country park by Loch Lomond and into the hustle and bustle of tourism. Only there for four nights on our way north we ventured out each day to the usual attractions, but we couldn’t wait to get back to Vorlick Cottage.
