A Real Home from Home

This is just such a lovely BnB; it is cosy and well appointed, with very comfortable beds, a well equipped kitchen and in a quiet little village that has a very good pub. The garden is dog-secure and there are walks very near by, one being just across the road. HIGHLY recommended.

Location just 10 minutes drive from Stirling was great, space for two cars! Kitchen was a good size and living/dining space was welcoming. A lot of recommendations/information for things to do. Very detailed welcome folder. We were three couples and one of the room only had twin beds, but we made it work. Two en-suite bathrooms were very appreciated. Very easy communication with owners when we had a couple of questions. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful place, wonderful town. Was the perfect jumping off point for so much in central Scotland. Place was lovely and clean and parking was easy. Everything great. Would return in an instant. The check in and out involved a massive amount of information from the owner/property manager which was a bit overwhelming including having to make an account on the property manager's website to get the check in info. Would recommend doing it early and not while you're without signal somewhere in the national park!

Thank you for choosing to stay with Stirling Self Catering Ltd during your recent visit to Gargunnock. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed both Garden Cottage and its location. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We would just like to clarify the check-in information provided, as we feel the review may give the impression that guests are required to navigate a large amount of information at the last minute. Our check-in information is sent 14 days before arrival, including the directions and key collection details, giving guests plenty of time to review everything and make any necessary arrangements. We then send a further email 3 days before arrival simply to check that the information has been received. We also provide access to MyStay Planner, which is an optional additional resource containing useful information about the property and local area. Guests are not required to use it to check in, as the essential check-in information is already provided by email. A hard-copy welcome folder is also available at the property. We appreciate that trying to access information while travelling without a mobile signal can be inconvenient; however, as the check-in details are provided two weeks in advance, guests have ample opportunity to access and save the information before travelling. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back to Garden Cottage or another Stirling Self Catering Ltd property in the future.

Lovely cottage

This was a lovely cottage. Very modern inside. Plenty of space for 5 adults. Ideal for Stirling & surrounding areas. Parking was very tight, we had to reverse in off the road. Good well stocked shop in the village.

Perfect getaway for family break

Fantastic cottage, well equipped with very comfy large sofa and beds with quality bedding. Hosts were very accommodating and responsive to any queries/requests. Excellent set up and plenty space for family get togethers. Location was perfect too. Almost 20-30 mins away from most places of interest in the area. Huge thanks to the hosts as our family catch up went very smoothly!

Such a Lovely Cottage

This was the second time that I stayed there, and it was every bit as good as last time. The cottage is quiet, homely and warm with the great advantage that, unlike so many places, you can control the heating. This along with the very efficient log burner, is a big plus in the winter. Everything about the place is comforatble - Egyptian cotton bed linen on the most comforatble beds, big sofas to collapse into and great showers and towels. Highly recommended.

Gargunnock Cottage

The Garden Cottage was a quaint and quiet place to stay. Located in the center of the village Gargunnock. It's location in the center of Scotland allowed us to travel in any direction to sight see. We especially liked visiting the Kelpies and Stirling Castle. We will definitely be planning to come back in the future and hope to stay here again.

Peace and quiet in the Stirlingshire countryside

Very nice cottage with all the needs for 6 guests. Good base for touring the area and further afield. Small but peaceful garden to sit out in and enjoy the sunsets. Cottage had all we needed, as far as space for 6 and all crockery, towels and linen. We would recommend this cottage to anybody. Owners very friendly and helpful. Agents very professional.

Little Cottage that’s plenty Big!

What a lovely cottage! It had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. Beautiful, quiet setting near Stirling. We explored the jail and the castle. Took the train to Edinburgh (not a lot of parking at the station). Drove to the ferry to Isle of Arran (take your car if you can). This cottage is in a great location for touring the Edinburgh/Glasgow area.

Charming!

Lots of good things to say about this place. The history of it being a stable - charming. The smell of lavender planted near the entrance - charming. The sound of sheep bleating if you crack one of the many the windows - charming. Church and old cemetery next door - charming. Young deer visits daily just outside the dining/living area - charming. I docked one star on cleanliness because I found a pacifier under one of the beds and I know they allow dogs but the kitchen smelled like dog -less charming. One of the shower heads fell off but there are plenty of places to shower and I chalk that up to regular maintenance that just needs attention. If you plan to cook be prepared to improvise. The kitchen has very basic tools. Very driveable to Stirling, Edinburgh and Glasgow while still offering a remote country location. Overall? Highly recommended.

Cosy base camp for exploring Stirlingshire

A great place to stay for a family. We were a couple with 2 kids plus an aunt and there was room to spare. The kitchen is well equipped for making big dinners and the bedrooms are warm and comfortable - and all with en suite facilities. The cottage documentation offers lots of ideas for things to do, and there are a number of good walks in the area, with impressive views and nature to explore.
