Architect-designed spacious cottage for eight with fabulous views

Appletree Cottage is a spacious, bright, architect-designed, luxury self-catering lodge set in the peaceful surroundings of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. Sleeping up to 8 people in four bedrooms - each with its own shower, wash basin and WC, Appletree features a large living space full of natural daylight with huge picture windows giving fabulous views southwards towards the distant Kilpatrick Hills.


Eco-friendly, the cottage is well insulated and has solar panels. Hot water and heating are powered by a district heating biomass boiler which uses locally sourced sustainable timber. There is a wood-burning stove for added cheer in the winter.

Mobility-impaired users will find easy access to the living space and adjoining ground floor en-suite bedroom and patio as they are all on one level with ample room for a wheelchair.

Set in its own private garden, the cottage has a south-facing private patio accessible through a huge glass sliding door from the living space for alfresco dining.

Children are welcome, and we can provide a travel cot, high chair and toddler chair if required.
We are mindful of those with allergies, so do not allow dogs or pets..

​This is the perfect spot to sit back and enjoy some wildlife spotting, The cottage is popular with stargazers as the skies are dark with no nearby street lighting.

Although in a rural setting, Appletree is ideal for exploring Glasgow, Stirling, Loch Lomond and the Trossachs.
