This town is the home of the Drymen Red Bus Company, which provides regular private guided tours of Scotland, taking visitors to witness some of the most photogenic landscapes in all of Europe, if not the world.

What to see in Drymen

One of the main sights in the area is Buchanan Castle, which was built in 1854, although the roof was removed in later years. Today, the landmark overlooks the popular Buchanan Castle Golf Club, which is one of the most picturesque golf courses in the country and benefits from easy access to Drymen hotels and restaurants.

The Clachan Inn

Scotland's oldest registered licensed pub, The Clachan Inn dates back to 1734 and is renowned for its delicious Scottish cuisine and comfortable, elegant accommodation. The pub, which is translated as 'a building of stone', was once an important storage space for large amounts of salt, when the mineral was taxed.

The wider area

Whether you're interested in booking an organised tour or travelling independently by car, try to allow some time to admire the spectacular panoramic views of Loch Lomond, a sight to behold whatever the weather. Drymen also benefits from good transport links to Edinburgh and Glasgow, and is within easy reach of several other attractive lochs such as Loch Long and Loch Earn. A short drive from the town is the charming Carrick Castle, which dates back to the 15th century, although a defence may have existed at this site before the Norman Conquest.
