About this house rental
Treat yourself to a historic stay at our 19th century Georgian home, just a 5 minute walk from the Stirling town centre, which has plenty of shops, bars and restaurants. Stroll the enclosed garden with your dog(s) at your side, then cosy up with a Robert Burns book and a whisky beside one of our crackling fireplaces. “It's like walking into a Jane Austen Novel,” says a past guest, and we are in full agreement, with one exception: our modern amenities. In other words; it’s a Jane Austen novel with Netflix and an espresso maker. - Take a video tour of the property https://youtu.be/noi05hbwRdQ Rather than leave this magnificent home empty while I'm on tour for my work in the music industry, I decided to share it with others. I take great care to ensure guests feel at home here but not like they're staying in someone else's house. I provide quality amenities (including whisky!) and a "relaxed luxury" design. With space for up to 10 people and an acre of landscaped grounds for playing outdoors, it's an effortless place to host everything from team building retreats and friend getaways to birthday parties and family reunions. Stirling Castle 20 min walk The Wallace Monument 10 min drive The Battle of Bannockburn 5 min drive BEDROOMS Five bedrooms sleep ten guests in either king or double beds. We can also provide extra single beds and an inflatable double bed, plus a cot for the youngest guests. Four bathrooms include a master en-suite and three shared bathrooms, and two bedrooms feature in-room vanities with hand basins. * King-size master suite; attached bathroom with cast iron roll top tub, shower, & heated floors * Bedroom 2: Double bed, wash hand basin, street view, TV * Bedroom 3: Double bed, wash hand basin, garden view, TV * Bedroom 4: Double bed, garden view, TV * Bedroom 5: The “West Wing” with a sofabed + double bed, bathroom access and garden view GATHERING SPACES Entertainment options are plentiful, from football in the garden—goal posts included—to DVD & Netflix movie nights in the living room. Host a dance party in the game room with the budding DJ of your group spinning on the limited edition Pioneer CDJs powered with large Yamaha speakers—one the benefits to staying in the home of someone who works in music! Or gather in the kitchen for hors d'oeuvres around the island, followed by a feast at the 8-10 person antique dining table under the chandelier or candle light. * Living room with fireplace, flat-screen TV * Drawing room with technics vinyl player, Beethoven & Mozart and a stunning fireplace and stunning vintage 1888 Hagspiel baby grand piano. * Tucked-away front lounge with a music player * Game room with DJ equipment, boardgames, and more * Office with desk and printer incase you need print boarding passes. * Full, modern kitchen with AGA stove and a dishwasher * Private backyard with 10-foot wall and no close neighbours, kids can play freely without worrying about disrupting others — Guest Interaction We do not often meet our guests in person due to our schedules. However, you can contact me (Alexandra) directly for any advice or recommendations and if there is an emergency. If I am traveling or unavailable, my cleaner lives nearby, and knows all about the house, services and our area. —Guest Access You will have access to the entire house and grounds, except for one locked room on the lower floor and the garage. There is a self check-in process with a lockbox. —The Neighbourhood Stirling is a very safe, friendly, and historic town. From our home, you can walk just a few minutes to the Stirling castle, then stop in at many watering holes on the way back. You will also find plenty of delicious local restaurants, including a good few favourites we will share with you upon arrival. Our location also makes it easy to pick up groceries, food and other necessities at the shopping centre. Stirling is excellently situated for traveling around Scotland, whether by train or car, as well, with the train station just a 10-minute walk away. —Getting Around Many of guests rent cars, but you can easily get by without one. We are a 10-minute walk from the train station and a 5-minute walk to town for bars, restaurants, and the Stirling Castle. If you do bring a vehicle, there is plenty of parking for 4 vehicles on the grounds. Plus, we provide two bicycles for exploring.

This house has everything, from a soccer pitch to a dance party room. Drawing rooms were sophisticated and comfortable. All bedrooms were enviable. Very large family eat in kitchen.
The house absorbs people.
Perfect!

Wow! It's unbelievable you can actually stay in this palace and when you walk through the doors - you feel like you have walked right into a Jane Austen novel. Absolutely beautiful and commodious with owners who are incredibly kind and helpful - providing food, wine, and toiletries for anything you could imagine you need. We've never experienced such warm hospitality in such an immense and breathtaking space.

One of the best houses we have stayed in on our many trips. Our family of six adults were very comfortable with lots of indoor and outdoor space. We were comfortably able to host several reunions with other family members in Scotland. This house is a few minutes walk from central Stirling and is well equipped and very comfortable. This house is truly a delight and made our trip all the more enjoyable. You really feel that you are staying somewhere special. If you have the chance to book it, do so!

The place was incredible. I mean, I felt like I had stepped back in time as an aristocrat or something : ) Our host, Alexandra, was out of this world amazing! Her communication was always very quick - the pilot light for the heater had gone out and we were freezing for the first part of the first night we were there. She sent someone to the place to make sure it got handled quickly. Then, when we left, my dad left his vest that had his inhaler in it. She mailed it out the next day and got it to our next place we were staying before we had to leave and head up north. And she wouldn't let me pay her back! Seriously...the house was one of our most favorite places to stay in all of the places we've ever been to, but Alexandra made it EVEN BETTER. She was amazing!!!

Property booked for nine but only seven chairs at the dining table. We moved one from the garsden an
The door/gate at the opposite side of the house could not be secured. Bad security risk to the premises. ( ie an intruder could enter easily)

Outstanding property
Totally blown away with this property, it is absolutely stunning. Our family of 9 organised this as a surprise present for our Father’s 80th birthday. The house is spotlessly clean and the welcome hamper and Christmas tree were especially nice touches. It’s in a fabulous location and just a few minutes from the centre of town. We had the most amazing memorable time and would absolutely recommend this to anybody.

Fabulous 50th
This is indeed a Georgian masterpiece. The house is spacious, very well equipped and beautifully furnished. We cooked, danced and then relaxed in the drawing rooms. It is a very short walk into Stirling and there are lots of nice places for a morning coffee or a spot of shopping. Of course a visit to the castle and the monument is a must.

Fab Stay
What an amazing property. This house was perfect for our family celebration (80th birthday). Plenty space for us all to spread out and a beautiful garden for our dog to run around in too. Being close to the centre of Stirling meant the car didn’t move the whole weekend we were there. A lovely welcome hamper / breakfast pack was a lovely touch and meant we were all set for the following morning. Will definitely be recommending this house to friends and family.

The property was great, giving so much room for our family of five! We spent as much time as we could in the spacious garden and my son loved playing with the massive football goals. The property was centrally located, only a 3 minute walk into the centre of Stirling, with loads of shops and great restaurants nearby for ease. Stirling was a fab location to be able to explore both southern Scotland as well as the Highlands on day trips.

We had the most wonderful stay with our family in this stunning house, with enough room for all of us, including our dog. We enjoyed dancing in the games room, playing in the beautiful walled garden, listening to records in the drawing room and watching Braveheart (of course!) in the TV room.
The beds were so comfortable and we were blown over by the hosts' hospitality, with a hamper of food and drinks left for us on our arrival. The location was so perfect with great (dog friendly) gastro pubs within walking distance and perfectly situated to visit other places like Glasgow and Edinburgh and Lough Lomond.
We love Scotland and its people and we hope to return soon! Thanks for everything.

We had a lovely time in this beautiful house which is perfectly situated only a couple of minutes from all the amenities of the city. The large, secure and private back garden provided us with a cool place to begin and finish each day. The house provided everything we could have wanted in a home from home - comfy beds, well appointed bathrooms and crockery etc. We would highly recommend this place - our grandchildren particularly enjoyed the music room for obligatory disco entertainment!

Wonderful stay
We rented this house as a celebration for my sister. The directions were perfect and Alexandria stayed in contact along the way making sure we had everything we needed. The house was perfect. We loved sitting by the fire with a gin, we loved the comfiness of the beds, the kitchen and dinning room were ideal for eating with a large group and of course we loved a dance in the music room.
The house is perfect for walking into town and is very well equipped.
Thank you very much for making our stay so special.

We loved our stay at this property! The beds were so comfortable and the kitchen was a joy to cook in. We lucked out with the weather and really enjoyed the big beautiful backyard as well. Couldn’t be more convenient - just a stroll from the train station and a lovely walk up to Stirling Castle.
