Such is the air of peace and tranquillity on Loch Lomond that you'd be forgiven for thinking you're a million miles away from everyday life.

In fact, you're approximately 30 minutes drive from Glasgow, 40 minutes from Stirling and an hour and a half from Edinburgh.

Half-hourly train services operate between Glasgow Queen Street Low Level and Balloch. Visit www.scotrail.co.uk
