Cottage holiday rentals in Dunblane

A great getaway with loads to do close by for whatever mood you're in - great towns and cities like Calendar and Stirling less than half an hour away, equally beautiful countryside and multiple waterfalls, lochs and walks to choose from on the doorstep. Our toddler loved the on site swimming pool and the grown ups enjoyed the peaceful views from the hot tub too! Rosie was so friendly and accommodating.

Our stay lived up to high expectations. Ainslie went over and above with decorations for my boyfriend’s birthday; welcome notes; homemade cake; fizz and ice in the fridge. She was warm and welcoming, and we felt completely relaxed. So grateful for such a lovely stay in a beautiful area. We will definitely be back! Thank you Ainslie 🥰🤩🥳

An absolute stunning break, our third time here. A quiet, comfortable home and a spectacular garden space for my autistic son to be himself, and my 3 Chihuahuas felt like they were in heaven. The hot tub was well used, even my elderly mum had a go. We had some lovely visits to the surrounding areas but mostly enjoyed the rest and relaxation that we all needed. We can’t wait to come back again.

Very true to the listing the cottage is charming, tastefully decorated and homely. The entire cottage is modern and new and the kitchen is spacious and very well equipped with everything you would need. Bathrooms are modern, bright and good rainfall showers. Spacious bedrooms with fresh crisp linen and towels. Hot tub is very good but agree with previous reviews that it definitely needs a few hours to reach the perfect temperature. Nice decking area off the kitchen with outdoor couches but weather was a little inclement which in turn brought out the dreaded midgies!! Huge garden which was safe for our dog to run around with easy access to the stream at bottom of the garden! The cottage is located off the beaten track and is quite remote but definitely ideal if you are after total peace and quiet. Not disappointed and would recommend!!

Nice place for a quiet get away. Sauna and hot tub are great additions. No neighbours so we're able to enjoy the garden into the evening.

Our stay at the cottage was lovely. Ashley was quick to respond when we were having trouble with the WIFI . It was so peaceful and managed to spot a dear as we arrived. Would highly recommend. Colin, Michael &Lina.

I had a lovely weekend in Dawn and Darren’s wonderful cottage! It was clean and spacious, with great amenities . The added bonus of having a wood fire hot tub outside is fantastic! The cottage is in a lovely area for getting into nature, only a 10 minute walk to Loch Leven! Dawn was great to communicate with, very helpful and generous Will be back to visit again!

Was very happy with our stay here, The evening with the hot tub was lovely and private, everything was clean and well presented. There was games left in the house for our use and we got use of these. The instructions before arriving to find location was helpful although the postcode in Apple Maps did take us straight the correct location which was great. Overall we were very pleased with the whole experience and would stay again. The added bonus was the hosts had a new puppy and we got to meet this beautiful fur baby on checkout.

We can’t recommend this cottage highly enough. Mette was very welcoming, friendly and helpful, as were the dogs. It’s set in a beautiful spot near Callander with amazing walks from your doorstep.

Lucy is a very kind and generous person. She will do her utmost to help with any problems. Yesterday, I went out the back door to find a box of eggs from her chickens. She leaves them regularly. I know if there is anything where I need assistance I just need to ask and she's there. A truly super host

We booked for a last minute get away and Tim & Judy’s place did not disappoint! The cottage was gorgeous and Tim was very helpful in getting us settled - peanuts were set right outside the kitchen window and we had red squirrels within minutes! Lots more bird watching was done throughout our stay :)) The fire and heaters kept us cosy, and the kitchen was well equipped. Will be returning soon hopefully!

Words cannot express the wonderful week we have had on Loch Katrine. Old Smiddy is ideally located for hiking the mountains, lochs and woodland and Carole has thought of all you need to make it feel like a home from home. Having our morning tea watching the Barn Swallows and House Martins catching their breakfast on the lake in the sunshine was very special. Aberfoyle has all you need for food and cute shops and fantastic Doone Hill walk from the town - Free Parking!!! A ferry trip on the Sir Walter Scott from the pier over to Trossachs Pier is a MUST and the Primrose Hill hike was stunning. The Pier Cafe is outstanding, definitely worth a treat and just a short walk away. Thank you Carole for sharing your amazing house, we will be back to enjoy the hot tub and sauna 🤞

We had a great stay at the cottage; it’s remote and peaceful. The cottage was well-equipped and cosy. The conservatory is great for reading and relaxing and there is an amazing collection of DVDs! The surrounding area is beautiful and there are nice walks in the area. The nearest supermarket is in Aberfeldy, about 10 minutes away.

this wee cottage is a hidden gem. the back garden views are just unreal, i couldve sat out there all day! jill was so lovely and responsive when we had a quick question, it was no issue for her. we wish we had longer there to enjoy the lovely space and surroundings, hoping to be back one day!

lovely peaceful cottage. Great location to walk to town. very comfy beds. lovely cosy living room with a great sofa to spall out on.

Lovely, picturesque, peaceful location and amazing property with everything you need for your stay. We had a wonderful few days here and would highly recommend this place.

It was a very cozy spot. It’s very easy to find and in a nice area! The backyard is beautiful and the farm across the road had baby sheep which was a nice treat! The next town (Alloa) had much better food options, and a nice range of stores to pick up some bits and bobs. The house itself was a little tight however, and we had some trouble finding room for our luggage. There were some minor repairs that needed to be done, but I spoke with the host about them and she was very helpful and responsive!

First class accommodation. Cottage was spacious and spotless! Host met us at the property, showed us round and passed on lots of local recommendations. We took advantage of the Romanian wine recommendation- it was lovely!! Will definitely be back!!

The Bothy is beautifully designed and makes creative use of the space which means it's ideal for a small family or 2 couples to share. Arabella has stocked the kitchen and bathrooms well making it easy to feel at home. The in-house guidebook and personal recommendations from Arabella really help you to explore the area. We enjoyed walking down to the river to spot local wildlife and visiting Crieff and Comrie as well as an enchanting trip to the Innerpeffray library. We also enjoyed using the garden and had a memorable firepit meal on our first night when the weather stayed fine. The Bothy is really well insulated so would be very cosy in the winter. May weather meant there wasn't an opportunity for us to try out the stylish wood burner. It was too hot when we arrived but it cooled down over the course of our stay by turning off the bathroom radiators and keeping the stable doors open. The beds are also very soft which is worth noting if you are used to a firm mattress.

We have just returned home after spending the last week at Debbie’s place. My wife and I had a lovely time, the place was clean, well equipped and located perfectly for a quiet rest but also near enough to Stirling if we needed anything. Our little boy and dog felt right at home, enjoying the garden, the grounds and the views of the cows from the window and balcony. There are plenty of surrounding walks and a great local dog friendly pub which served a great lunch. Thank you for having us.

Beccy was an amazing host and I couldn’t have asked for more from the cottage or the surroundings. Would 100% recommend.

We absolutely loved our stay — it was everything we hoped for and more. The views were breathtaking, and the peaceful atmosphere made it the perfect escape. Our dog, Clover, had the best time too and made a new best friend in Bertie (Ronnie and Laura’s lovely golden retriever). It felt like home and we were genuinely sad to leave. Can’t recommend it enough — thank you so much for such a special experience. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lovely place to stay. Absolutely loved the view from the conservatory and the garden was gorgeous. The kitchen is clearly a cooks kitchen - very well equipped! Location is great. Felt like we were in the middle of nowhere but we were only 10-15 minutes from anything we needed. About 12 minutes from Eskbank Station and then a 20 minute train ride from Waverley.

Absolutely loved our stay here. Very spacious and the garden was so pretty. Loved Scotland and would definitely recommend this place. Also loved the walk up the hill. Rewarding view at the lookout. Stunning! Great recommendation.
