    Easy check in, lots of living space, lovely private garden with comfy seats and a nice view. Close by to lots of lovely hikes.

    The Bothy was a comfortable romantic getaway. It was perfect!! The host Kim sent excellent communication including directions. There was some treats awaiting us in the fridge for our arrival and plenty logs and kindling for the burner. The spot was quiet and tranquil, we could not have wished for a more perfect bolt hole to get away from the hustle for a couple of nights …highly recommended!!

    Very cozy, had all it needed, location was great and close to plenty of walks. We loved staying in the bitty for a couple of nights with the dog. The owner was very communicative and has a lot of thoughts for details!

    Had a dog so bit hard to take for walk just outside as quite a busy road but we managed ok and so close to loch lomond can't complain really!

    Very cute and cosy, loved the mezzanine bed and lovely wee glen at the bac. Not to mention the fire made it soo hot in the bothy, pure relaxation 😎

    Nothing.

    The Bothy was small and cosy but the lay out was maximised to make it spacious. The place is absolutely spotless. We stayed on Hogmanay for 2 nights and the log burner ensured we were warm and cosy the whole trip. I took my airfryer with us and between that and the facilities there, we cooked our breakfast and meals with no problems. We had our wee dog with us and he loved it too. We took him a walk in to Buchlyvie on New Year's Day where we had a couple of drinks in the 1851 Tavern where dogs are more than welcome. A perfect stay and we will definitely return this year.

    Cosy bothy, which was nice, quiet, and an ideal place to get away from the hustle and bustle. Ideal that we were able to take out dog too.

    We loved this property. Was well equipped and a super short drive to some amazing hikes, or the incredible town of sterling with beautiful restaurants. Nick Nairn’s restaurant is a few miles down the road and it was sensational. Property was easy to find, super cosy and a nice break from busy towns.

    Beautifully clean, all you need for an overnight stay. Very comfortable and warm. Bowl of fruit, water and biscuits very much appreciated.

    The Bothy was immaculate, I couldn't fault it. The host had thought of everything, from leaving notes and instructions for every appliance, to leaving bread, milk and even wine ready for arrival.

    As the bed was on a mezzanine level it was solely a mattress at the top of the stairs . I appreciate in this instance it wasn’t possible for the mattress to be raised any further- only a very slight negative.

    Excellent set up , nicely out of the way , all the facilities u could need .

    We can't think of anything negative to say about this lovely place.

    The cottage was immaculately clean and had everything we could possibly need and more. The outdoor space was lovely and perfect for our little dog. Parking was right beside the cottage, quiet and safe.
