April 23 2019
Loch Lomond & the Trossachs National Park is in receipt of a £30m tourism masterplan designed to bring a variety of new attractions and facilities to Lomond Shores, Balloch.
Lomond Banks would include a variety of accommodation from a 92 hotel rooms, 131 self-catering units and 21 private houses and apartments, all augmented by a craft brewery, boathouse, leisure centre and restaurants.
Designed by Anderson Bell + Christie this would include conservation of the A-listed Woodbank House and creation of a ‘station square’ for those arriving by rail.
Andy Miller, director at Lomond Banks, said: “As you can see from our artist impressions, we are fully committed to seeing Balloch become the true gateway to Loch Lomond.
“Our plans for West Riverside and Woodbank House offer an opportunity for a unique leisure based development and with Lomond Banks, Scotland will have a quality destination that respects and compliments the surrounding area.”
Expected to complete by 2024 the leisure destination will include landscape upgrades by Gillespies to footpaths and green spaces, including natural woodland.

Having said that, I'm surprised to see the visuals of the space ship using timber cladding which can be seen locally to the site as a bad choice.
