The Kist is in a very quiet rural area located down a windy narrow road. If you desire a beautiful two bedroom cottage with a great kitchen this is a great space for you. We spent 2 nights early April when all of the area fields are sprinkled the sheep and their newborn lambs. We explored the acreage the Kist sits on with beautiful views of the fields and hills, listening to the lambs calling for their moms. So peaceful, serene, yet close enough to a few must see sights such as Stirling Castle and Loch Lomond. Know that restaurants in the villages close by are very limited for evening meals. Suggest making food in the evening at the Kist after a day of adventure. Well appointed kitchen with large fridge/freezer, oven, cooktop. Bedrooms are on opposite ends of home which is nice for quiet and privacy. Would highly recommend if you need tranquility and don't mind driving to attractions.

Really enjoyed our stay, quite location, property had everything that you needed, host was friendly

Second visit to “The Kist,” Our stay was just as perfect as the first. Warm, cosy, quiet & peaceful. Everything was to hand. We definitely hope to be back.

The Kist is very well laid out and had everything needed for our stay. Iona is a fab host and was very kind and helpful.

We had a great relaxing week at the very well equipped Kist...nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Lovely lodge very well equipped and great layout Outside rather tired decking and grounds needing some attention

We had a wonderful time here! The place was spotless and we had everything we needed during our stay. It was so quiet and comfortable, I would definitely be back. Some lovely towns and scenery around aswell.

Had a lovely relaxing stay but weather was not kind to us but thats cosy place to chillout.

Very clean , everything you need , perfect for relaxation and rewinding ,, we didnt want to leave .we loved the sounds of the owls at night .

Lovely place to stay.The layout is really well thought out and felt comfortable. Beautiful setting.

Lovely, secluded property with well designed layout. Scenic surroundings and easy drive to Glasgow, if necessary.

We had a great stay again, we go mainly for our dog as he petrified of fireworks and now as this is our second stay we will be there every year if possible as we make it a wee long weekend for us too. Lovely Host too.

We have stayed at The Kist three times. We love it as its immaculate and comfy with everything you could need and more. Its in beautiful surroundings too.

Property is in beautiful part of Scotland with lots to do close by. But lots of board games if you fancy Staying in watching the world go by. Thank you for a nother lovely stay, only suggestion hot tub in the garden maybe.

We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay and well be back!

Property was excellent. Could just be doing with some bigger signs and some lighting especially when arriving at night time. Had an excellent stay and would highly recommend to anyone

We spent a wonderful couple of days in this lovely property and would highly recommend it. Iona was an incredibly friendly and responsive host. There is lots to do within a short drive of the house - but the location is so beautiful it was an effort to tear ourselves away!

The Kist was a great place to get away for a few days. Everything worked as it should and it was very comfortable. Distance to shops wasn’t too far but a trek non the less. It was disappointing to not be able to let the dogs run free as there is plenty of land and a fenced/gated area at the back would have been better. All in all, the stay was lovely and relaxing. If I was going back with just my wife, it would be okay, but not with the dogs.

We spent a wonderful week in the kist. The cottage is very cosy and the location ideal - whether for walking/hiking or a visit to Edinburgh or Glasgow. We were also very lucky with the weather - a week of sunshine.

My family had a very relaxing stay at the Kist and served as a nice place to stay while visiting Loch Lomond and Stirling’s attraction such as the Kelpies and Sterling jail and castle. The Kist was perfect for my family thank you.

Wonderful location, good views, private outdoor space, modern and spacious. Helpful owner.

The Kist is brilliant. Really modern accomodation in the most beautiful setting. The house has everything you could think of. Perfect location to access the surrounding countryside but also easy into Edinburgh. We will definitely be back!

The property is a fully equipped bungalow style home on a big piece of land. The only noise is the animals flying, crawling or walking around. So quite. The single track can be a challenge with oncoming traffic and the lack of indication that someone is approaching. Some nice conversations with the owner and additional supplies of towels or (bed / kitchen) linnen. Overall a nice starting point to explore the surrounding area from Fort William (with Ben Nevis mountain), Glencoe, Falkirk (Kelpies, the Wheel, SeaLife, Birds of prey) until Edinburgh (with its castle and the Royal Mile). A very large Tesco supermarked in Stirling is about 20min away. All in all money well spent.

The Kist has a super layout and feels spacious and private. The kitchen was fully equiped and bed really confy. Although sited on a single track road it's proximity to Loch Lomand, Srirling and even Glasgow was ideal. I have alreadt recommended it to a friend.

We enjoyed the bucolic scenery. The quiet. The nature. Amenities were everything we needed. Wall of glass with open doors & loved the breeze coming thru. Feel fortunate to have found such a gem!

Could not fault the accommodation, very clean and comfortable, everything we needed was provided. Exterior decking in need of some TLC, the website photo is a bit out of date. Rough single tracks to get to the Kist, be aware. Enjoyed our stay.

Set in stunning grounds with beautiful scenery, The Kist was exactly want we wanted to get away and enjoy the peace and quiet. We took our German Shepherd dog who just loved the space. Lovely hosts who live nearby and Iona was there to assist with anything we wanted. The proprty has everything you need, including a wine cooler which was well used!. Had a wonderful few days and will be back, thank you.

Hidden and quiet, the Kist is a two bedroom/two bathroom house situated in a rural area! We enjoyed our stay so much! Everything you need is here as a base to explore or just relax on a holiday. Iona was very helpful before our arrival with instructions and directions, and when we first arrived as I needed help to operate the washer. Thanks for a great stay Iona! Would not hesitate to stay at the Kist again!

the property is as advertised. Clean,cozy and quiet. The only noise come from the sheep,chickens and cows. Convenient to many villages with pubs and restaurants. We used it as a base to eexplore the highlands. Glencoe a must see.Iona the host was delightful and very helpful.

Beautiful property..quiet and relaxing..lovely scenery

The Kist served as an excellent location for a nearby wedding at Knockraich Farm. The surrounding countryside was stunning and tranquil. Facilities in the property were very comfortable, clean and had everything you need to self cater.

Lovely location and stunning views. The Kist was fine for a 4 night stay. We felt that the lodge could do with some general maintenance-decking boards loose and outside chairs could do with being replaced.
