    We had a lovely, warm welcome. Excellent facilities in a super location for our WHW walk. Breakfast was great and we even went away with an extra cinnamon pastry or 2!! Jane was very kind and helpful. We would highly recommend! Ate at The Clachan...

    Fabulous location for walking the WHW. Just a short walk outside Drymen. The room was a little dated (and dusty) but very comfortable, and I had a great night’s sleep in a very comfy bed and the shower was really good after a days walking. Great...

The farm and its fields are on the edge of Drymen village. A short walk of 15mins north out of the village. Some of the fields run alongside the West Highland Way but we do not have direct access. It is a working beef farm, we have British Shorthorn beef cattle. Shandon is our home as well as a B and B. Thank you.
Hi im Jane, my husband is Stephen and we're originally from Derbyshire, England. we have lived in Scotland since 2012. We opened the B and B in May 2015 following a 9 month renovation to a very high standard. The house is set away from the road and has lovely views over towards Loch Lomond and The Trossachs. I run the B and B and my husband manages the farm. Our daughter also lives with us and helps in the bnb. We have 3 small terriers who live in the house with us.
Drymen is regarded as the first overnight stop-off point for those walking the West Highland Way. It is also the starting point for the Rob Roy Way. It is a small village with a pub, a couple of restaurants and hotels, a library, chemist and a very busy post office. The oldest licensed premises in Scotland is said to be The Clachan Inn by the village green. Shandon Farmhouse is a 15min walk up the road from the Clachan Inn.
