Why Families Choose Nest Holiday Home

Family holidays should be about making memories, not worrying about logistics.

At Nest Holiday Home, we've tried to think about the practical things that make family travel easier. From baby equipment and safety features to comfortable full-sized beds and family-friendly attractions within walking distance, you'll find a welcoming space where everyone can settle in and feel at home.

The apartment comfortably sleeps five guests, or six if you have a baby or toddler who can make use of the travel cot provided.

Situated above the owners' home, the accommodation is private and self-contained, offering plenty of space for families while still providing reassurance that help is nearby should you need it.

Family Accommodation Loch Lomond with Comfortable Bedrooms

Getting a good night's sleep is important on holiday, particularly when travelling with children.

Nest Holiday Home has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it ideal for families who appreciate a little extra space.

The Main Bedroom

The main bedroom features a comfortable double bed and a single. Along with a reading chair and footstool there is plenty of room to relax after a busy day exploring Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park.

There is also ample floor space for a travel cot should you wish your baby or toddler to sleep in the same room.

The Twin Bedroom

The twin bedroom includes two full-sized single beds.

These are proper adult-sized beds, not children's beds, making the room equally suitable for older children, teenagers and adults.

If you're travelling with a grown family, everyone can enjoy a comfortable night's sleep.

Two Bathrooms Make Family Life A Little Easier

One of the features families particularly appreciate is having two bathrooms. Both bathrooms include:

Shower
Toilet
Sink

Whether you're getting ready for a day out or settling everyone in after an adventure-filled afternoon, having two bathrooms helps reduce queues and keeps family life running smoothly.

Stair safety gate
High chair
Travel cot
Baby rocker
Bottle warmer
Microwave for heating food and milk
Night lights
Bedside lamps

We've tried to include many of the practical items that make travelling with little ones less stressful.
