There are restaurants to suit all tastes, swimming pools, sport centres, multiplex cinema, theatre, museum, pubs and shops. The best bit is that Stirling is very much a year round destination. The perfect place for the perfect holiday! Shops, pubs and restaurants 4 miles.

This was a good location for myself and chum to enjoy the peace and quiet and be centrally located to get some local trout fisheries for us to enjoy our hobby . If you had any problems they were quickly dealt with by the owners who stay on site . A lovely little welcome pack awaited us on arrival and was greatly appreciated .

A great holiday home. Lots to do nearby, everything you need in the cottage, even a defibrillator on site. Comforts beds, would love to know what the mattresses are so we can buy one for home, comforts sofa and chairs we've had in a holiday home. Friendly helpful owners onsite. Gorgeous views and spectacular scenery. Would recommend to all.

We just had a lovely weekend at Buzzard cottage. The cottage is in a peaceful location with only a few other cottages on site. Buzzard is joined to the other cottages with a courtyard in the middle. The cottage was cozy and inviting. 1 double room with ensuite and 1 room with single beds. The bathrobes and slippers were a great. The kitchen was fully stocked with enough crockery and utensils. Loved that there was also basic cleaning and cooking essentials and a welcome pack. We didn't use the honesty room. We had a great girls weekend getaway recharging our batteries. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place. Thanks so much.
