Why choose this route?
One lochside night, a gentle walk and time to learn the van. Luss gives this first weekend a clear base close enough for an easy return to Renfrew.
Loch Lomond — good for: Short approach from Renfrew; a lochside pitch and village food can make the first evening feel like a holiday. The compromise: Luss gets busy, and the A82 can be slow. This is a lively visitor village rather than a secluded Highland retreat.

Itineraries
Day 1
Loch Lomond
Collection: Allow for the 14:00 handover in Renfrew before starting this day. Choose an evening stop that fits the campsite’s check-in time.
Start with Luss’s cottages, pier and lochshore, rather than trying to cover both sides of the loch. Park in a signed visitor car park and leave the village lanes for walking.
Make it work: For the short weekend, Balloch Country Park gives you a final-morning walk close to the return journey.
Day 2
Return to Renfrew
Today is the return journey, with standard handback by 12 noon. Check live traffic, allow time to refuel and arrive at the agreed return point. Optional sightseeing and cafés come after the return only, unless a later handback has been agreed.
Food: Breakfast in the van before leaving your final pitch keeps the morning flexible. Sleeping: No overnight pitch is included for this final hire day; book an additional night if extending.
