The lodge was set on a very quiet overlooking the Ochill Hills one way and a pretty river backing the other side. Easy walking on a path into Dollar which has nice cafés and supermarket. Lots to do nearby especially if you enjoy walking. Our host was very attentive and helpful. The goodies provided were excellent too.

We had a lovely stay at glenbeagles. We arrived to a lovely welcome basket that was a lovely touch. The owner was really helpful and emailed just before our trip to provide info on things that will be in the lodge such as tea, coffee etc as well as ideas on places to visit. The lodge was clean and well kept and in a good location. The neighbouring sheep were relaxing to watch too! We really enjoyed our stay here

We had a brilliant stay at GlenBeagles Lodge, the owner caters for your every need. It was immaculately clean, well equipped kitchen, comfy furniture and bed, bathroom a good size, toiletries provided, and best of all full sized bath sheets! It is definitely a home from home. The owner was very accommodating at the beginning of our stay, and provided us with very informative details.The Lodge is ideally situated for local amenities and for visiting further afield. If we could give more than 5 stars we would. We will definitely be back one day.
