Iain and Ellen Johnson
loved our stay, it was so peacefull. Beds and pillows really comfortable and we had a great nights sleep. Thank you to our hosts for the welcome packs. Central location for Alloa & Dollar and easy drives to Stirling and Perth etc. The farm setting was great and waking up to the horses (especially Magic) in the field was lovely. The field behind the chalet was also a great place to walk the dog. All in all would highly recommend and will be back

Excellent location to visit Scotland both big cities and Highlands. Amazing host with great communication for any help throughout our stay. Well equipped and very clean cottages and beautiful and clam atmosphere. Amazing and friendly horse to say Good Morning every morning. We love our stay over there so much so we will definitely back if we visit Scotland again.
