Tired room
I arrived around 7pm having booked online. The owner was unaware of my booking. The room was tired- carpet hand fitted around the wash hand basin, which was in the bedroom and not in the shower room. A tiny shower and w.c with a sliding door.Old fashioned wardrobe and a tiny tv. Everything was very, very clean. The breakfast was excellent as was the service. I was just unlucky that evening with the room selected for me I was on my own and the room would have been very small for two people. £100 per night.

Stay was good. But this is not a hotel as advertised, it is only bed and breakfast. Your data is misleading.

Wonderful Place
My partner and I stayed here for a night and had a lovely time. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the food in the restaurant was delicious. Service was excellent too. Staff were able to accommodate our dietary requirements without any issues. The room was quite cold. There were two radiators, one wasn’t too warm at full, and the other wasn’t working. Other than that, our stay was perfect. I’d recommend this hotel to anyone.

Sorry to hear room was cold. Can you advise which radiator wasnt working as they seem to be all functioning? An extra heater could have been provided. Such a shame. Glad you enjoyed your stay otherwise

Lovely stay
We had a great stay. Lovely hotel and friendly owners. Felt very COVID safe. The breakfast was delicious - best breakfast we have in a hotel for a long time. The only downside was that the bathroom was very small and the sink was in the room and external to the bathroom. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic B&B in a great location with convenient free parking off the road. The room was clean, quiet and comfortable. The breakfast was truly excellent with a great choice and high quality, local ingredients. Only minor negative was a very small en-suite and sink in the main bedroom but it was perfectly fine for our short stay and didn’t detract from the overall excellent stay.

Fantastic overnight stay
My partner and I had a wonderful stay here. We received a warm welcome and were given a thorough overview of our booking and the hotel, ie. restaurant and bar opening times, after-hours access etc., so any questions were answered before we’d even asked. The king-sized room was tastefully decorated and a grand size, as was the en-suite. We were both very impressed. Callander is a picturesque, small town; so although the hotel is outside of what you might consider the town centre, it’s only a two minute walk in. Plenty to do and see in the area if you like your pubs and nature walks. We very nearly missed breakfast but were still served with a smile. Continental help-yourself, and a cooked breakfast served. It was the best breakfast I’ve ever had at a hotel. I’d happily recommend Poppies to anyone.

Lovely hotel in Callander.
Lovely hotel just out of Callander town centre. My friend and I stayed for two nights. The rooms were not huge but perfectly adequate with everything you could need for your stay. Comfy bed, good shower, lovely toiletries, excellent tv reception and very quiet at night. The wee bar is well stocked (a few more choices of dark rum would be nice), cosy, and with a friendly atmosphere. The breakfast and dinner were first class. Absolutely beautiful food. Would we go there again? Not only yes but we are already planning our next trip!

Great location, great price
The hotel was very lovely and in a great location. The price was well worth it and the beds, shower, etc. were all quite nice. The staff was friendly and courteous and more than willing to answer any questions. Poppies is within easy walking distance of downtown Callendar. It was also only a short drive to Stirling. All in all, I would certainly stay here again.
