Unique Scottish Country House In The Trossachs/Loch Lomond- 6 bedrooms

Within the heart of The Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park at Brig O’Turk, Dundarroch is a beautiful and spacious Victorian family house set in 7 acres of mature gardens with stunning views.
Brig o' Turk is just over an hour from both Edinburgh or Glasgow airport. It lies six miles west of Callander and about four miles north of Aberfoyle. Dundarroch backs directly onto the biking trails
and footpaths in the national park and is less than a mile away from Loch Venachar and Loch Achray,
and under three miles from Loch Katrine is to the west. Steeped in history and legend, Loch Katrine
is the perfect place for a Trossachs adventure with a trip aboard the famous Sir Walter Scott
steamship over to Stronachlachar en route to Loch Lomond. Within the area there are boundless
opportunities for outdoor activities including climbing, hill walking, mountain biking, water sports,
fishing, shooting and stalking. Gleneagles/Loch Lomond are only 35 miles away.
This magnificent house dates back to 1870 and has been decorated to a high standard to create a
very stylish and modern holiday home that is in keeping with its beautiful natural surroundings. It
has outstanding westerly views towards the striking peak of Ben Venue and the garden is bordered
by the rivers Black Water and Turk.
Accomodation for 12 people consists of the following :-
• Six bedrooms en suite – 1 superking, 3 kings and 2 twins bedrooms plus 1 travel cot
• Kitchen/Dining Room, Drawing Room, Sitting Room, TV room , Play Room, Utility Room
• Satellite TV and Wi-Fi.
The kitchen area is open plan with spacious seating in a recent extension and offers a Rangemaster
110 Excel cooker for those with an eye on group/family entertainment.
Dundarroch has an open fire in the drawing room, and a wood burning stove in the TV room and in the sitting room in a
traditional stone feature an LPG fireplace making it the ideal spot for curling up in the evening.
Outside there is plenty of parking right by the door and surrounding the property is a landscaped
garden with external furniture seating.
Towering pines up the driveway add to the natural beauty of the landscape in the national park. The
grounds are home to red squirrels, pine martens, pheasants, wood peckers deer and foxes. From the house there
are numerous short walks and forest trails to be enjoyed or longer climbs like Ben A’an or Ben Venue
both of which offer unforgettable views over Loch Katrine and the surrounding area.

Nothing bad to say about the property. We had a terrific stay. The lochs, the mountains, the amenities, the local food and the knowledgeable locals. The house itself was everything we needed and more. Would highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful property with amazing garden
We enjoyed our stay generally very much. Absolutely not satisfying was the contact with the owner. The day before arrival we had to take contact to receive instructions of how to take over the house. There was no reception or instruction at all. Because the heating system was controlled remote by the owner, we had to contact them several times to get bedrooms heated. After three days, there was no more contact possible, just no answer! The nearby Pub is not an asset at all, a real messy place!

Scottish House near Callanndar
This was a lovely house set in impressive grounds. The house was as described and ideal for the extended family of 10 staying. The kitchen and bathrooms were clean but some rooms would have benefitted from a deep clean. The location allowed us to visit a wide range of lovely places - we loved Scotland.

Perfect Trossachs location
This house was perfect for our extended family. There were several gatherings spots, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped and the outside gardens were beautiful and relaxing. We took several day trips and each night came home for dinner. We had phenomenal sunny warm weather and one afternoon just sat in the garden and chilled. Communication with the owner was swift and easy. Perfect for a Scotland vacation.

Fabulous location with lots of space for families
We could not get over the views in the morning. The location was perfect and allowed us to go on long walks without having to get into the car. Very well equipped home with a lovely kitchen with space to enjoy meals together. The pub at the end of the road was a bonus! The local store was surprisingly well stocked. Day trips to Edinburgh and the Wallace Monument kept the tourists in our party happy.

Elegant property, impressive grounds, stunning location
Dundarroch matched our expectations, facilities excellent for a large family group. Plenty of space tastefully furnished and great bathroom facilities to make our stay stress free. And a minute walk to the local pub. Our only criticism was that there should have been an extra single put up bed to accommodate a family with three children. We were sorry to leave.
