Immediate Surroundings
The cottages are in a secure garden, going through a small gate you can go down into the Glen to explore, the woods near the cottages are blanketed with bluebells, there is a picnic area in the garden and tables and chairs on the terrace outside the cottages, we also have chairs on the balcony where visitors can enjoy the last of the evening sun, visitors can walk in our fields and enjoy the tremendous views of the Trossachs, Ben Lomond and the Campsies, in Spring time the fields are full of ewes and lambs.

Local Area
There are a few small villages in the local area, the closest are (a few minutes by car) Killearn and Fintry. Both of these are good for shops, pubs and restaurants. There is Glengoyne distillery near Killearn where visitors can learn about the history of distilling and of course sample this excellent product.

Of course the big attraction about this area is that you are just a few minutes from The Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park and also the Queen Elizabeth Forest Park with all that they have to offer. (see the links below).

Below you will find some very useful links, representing just a very few of the dozens of interesting places and things to do. The links include, eating at the nearby restaurant in Culcreugh Castle in Fintry, visiting the Lomond Shores Visitor centre at Balloch a short car journey away. Also the villages of Fintry and Killearn, David Marshall lodge, the visitors centre for the Queen Elizabeth Forest Park, Blair Drummond Safari park, a short journey by car, Going Ape at Aberfoyle. Stirling is only 35 minutes away and has a lot to offer, including bowling, cinemas, restaurants but also if you go to Stirling you must visit Stirling Castle and the Wallace monument.
