There are some stunning drives in the Trossachs and up towards the forests of Argyll. If you prefer some more urban pursuits Stirling and Glasgow are only a 30 minute drive away, Edinburgh and Perth an hour.

Locally there are excellent opportunities for walking, sight seeing, cycling & mountain biking, pony trekking, fishing, golf and lots more. The immediate area also offers a wide range of amenities, including shops, quality sit-in and take-out restaurants.

Our cottage has fibre broadband access so that you can stay in touch. The cottage has been tastefully furnished and equipped with everything you would require to make your stay relaxing. French doors open onto a private garden, overlooking our fields. This means that you can enjoy the beautiful countryside without having to move.

Response from the owner
This lady and her husband arrived at our lovely cottage on our working farm which was advertised as such. Being a vegetarian and her friend a vegan, she sadly had a different opinion than all our past guests, our visitors book will confirm. I wish her all the best for the future.
