==Trivia and History==
[[File:Premier Inn Lomondgate 2024.jpg|250px|thumb|right|alt=Three-storey hotel building with a Premier Inn sign and cars parked outside it.|Premier Inn Dumbarton/Loch Lomond, the first facility to open.]]
The service station here was developed on a parcel of land left next to the housing development by The Walker Group in partnership with Strathaven Regeneration Company. The land was designated for business, retail and leisure purposes and building work started on the service area in May 2010.

The first facilities to open were a 60-bed [[Premier Inn]] and [[Brewers Fayre]] pub-restaurant in January 2011. The pub-restaurant had originally been planned as a branch of [[Table Table]] but was changed upon opening. Scotland's first [[Costa Drive Thru]] which later opened in February 2012.

The filling station was the last facility to be added to the site with Euro Garages purchasing the 1.1 acre plot of land from The Walker Group in October 2013. Construction then started on the filling station in March 2014 and was Euro Garages's first purpose-built Scottish site. The [[Esso]] filling station opened on 25 April 2015 and featured a [[SPAR]] store with [[Greggs]] and [[Subway]] concessions alongside a [[Starbucks on the Go]] coffee machine.

Jaconelli's Fish Diner was later built on a plot of land next to the Costa Drive Thru in 2015 however this closed in 2018. The unit was purchased by Euro Garages who intended to convert the unit into a [[Burger King Drive Thru]] but instead opened the unit as a [[Starbucks Drive Thru]] on 8 October 2021.

There is also a plot of land to the north of the filling station which had been lined up to house a visitor centre, however this is yet to be built.

The Premier Inn hotel and car park were extended in 2017, with the car park gaining an additional 79 spaces. The car park also gained two GeniePoint electric vehicle chargers in September 2023.

Euro Garages were awarded Forecourt Retailer of the Year for the Esso filling station at the Scottish Grocer Awards 2017.

The forecourt transferred into the Asda estate in November 2023, relaunching with a new [[ASDA Express]] store on 16 November 2023.

The Brewers Fayre restaurant here became one of the first in Scotland to close to the public on 4 July 2024, as part of Whitbread's Accelerated Growth Plan. The restaurant is now only available to hotel guests, with plans to convert the land to additional hotel rooms during 2025.
