The beds are comfortable and the hot tub is excellent. The rental is good overall however some attention to small details could improve the stay, such as kindling or fire starters for the fireplace or an information book containing directions (location of switch for towel heater etc). The location is convenient for visiting sites and the combination of the hot tub and the fireplace make for a relaxing end to the day. ![Stream on property ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d75a5aec-c88a-4489-a68c-abee7611ddb4-1761221842166.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![The East wing - stairs to front door ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1898b992-d2bc-45da-b5ba-7e3d37a52d3b-1761221838417.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View from entrance to driveway ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/46e5641e-7a7f-41fa-82a4-0441813b21ac-1761221921502.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Lovely path to stream and meadow ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/01e8237d-19fb-4a48-8a68-5118c7700b69-1761221924045.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Gillian Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jason T. 22 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful Place to Relax or Use as Base Camp This is the most interesting location we have stayed due to the age of the home and amount of property. It was like stepping back in time with modern amenities. We used this as our home base to visit Stirling, Edinburgh, and Glasgow. It worked out well. If looking to get away from the business and noise of the city, it would be a good spot to relax and enjoy the property. ##### Jason T. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### ROBERT M B. 28 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great setup. Very unique & wonderful stopping point. ##### ROBERT M B. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa P. 5 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Charming, clean, unique The modern kitchen, beautiful grounds and historic stairways and rooms were so clean and comfortable for us. I was impressed because it’s not easy to keep such an old property in such a clean condition! I even had a bath one night. We loved exploring the woods and small stream around the house as well as getting out to other spots around Scotland. The house was out of the way but easily accessible even for those used to driving on the other side of the road! Loved our time here. Only downside was the weak internet and cell reception. Also stairways were difficult for elderly member of our group but that was the case everywhere we went and probably to be expected. ##### Lisa P.
