All the rooms are immaculately presented and there is plenty of space for family and friends, whether it be relaxing in one of the stunning living rooms with open fires, relaxing in the hot tub or soaking up the sun in the garden.
Situated in the picturesque village of Aberfoyle, the ’gateway to the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park’, this is the perfect location for families and couples to enjoy a luxurious and comfortable holiday while recharging after a long day exploring the beautiful surroundings. On the ground floor there is a spacious living/dining room with an open fire and a second living room, giving guests a spacious home for all to enjoy whether curling up with a book in front of the fire or everyone relaxing together to plan the next day’s adventure.

You can take your own bikes or hire bikes from The Pier, board the boat and disembark from Stronachlacher, 13 miles down the loch.
