Osprey Hideaways overlooks the owners’ own 120-acre loch where ospreys can be seen feeding most days in season. 300ft high cliffs frame the far side of the water, making the views genuinely stunning.

Each cottage has been named after birds that are regularly seen flying overhead, and are perfectly located to enjoy the best of both worlds at any time of the year - the peace of the countryside and the amenities and activities of the city. As well as being only 4 miles from Stirling city centre, it’s only 5 miles to the motorway junction for surprisingly quick journey times to Edinburgh, Perth and Glasgow and all their facilities. Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park is 20 miles away and the mountains to the north or the beautiful sea lochs to the west are all within a 2 hour drive. There are numerous golf courses locally and even the Gleneagles course is only 35 minutes’ away. For walks the choice is endless and one of the best cliff-top walks in central Scotland starts right at the cottages! Stirling is a vibrant but compact university city offering wonderful attractions, including an incredible castle, the amazing Wallace Monument, the historic Church of the Holy Rude and even ghost tours. 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.

Buzzard cottage was an absolute delight.
Buzzard cottage was an absolute delight. The cottage has everything you need. It is very quiet and out in the countryside. It's about 20 mins away from Stirling where all amenities are available. The hosts were lovely, there to help if you need anything but not invasive at all. I had the best time.

Owner came out to greet us and was friendly.
Owner came out to greet us and was friendly. Cottage was beautifully equipped with lots of extra little touches, comfortable and spacious. A welcome pack to be able to make a cup of tea and have a snack on arrival was really thoughtful. The immediate location is stunning and the we positioned for lots of days out exploring to the point of being spoilt for choice of what to do. Can highly recommend staying here
