BALLOCH HOTELS
Balloch is divided by the River Leven which exits the South part of Loch Lomond and after a few miles joins the River Clyde at Dumbarton. Loch Lomond can be enjoyed from cruises and private charters that run from Balloch Pier. There is also a 200 acre country park to the west of the River Leven, home to Balloch Castle with pathways that will lead you overlooking Loch Lomond. The Castle has a tourist information office and a small café. The Balloch Castle gardens are open throughout the year and there is also a visitor centre for tourists.Read more (+)
