Finished to a very good standard in 2022, it has a fantastic open plan living space with underfloor heating and a feature wood burner for colder winter months, as well as a fully fitted modern kitchen area in keeping with the charm and character of this ‘chocolate box’ village. Heading up the open tread stairs, you can choose from either a kingsize bedroom that can be adapted into a twin, or a double room with a modern shower room next to it.
Nestling below the Lomond Hills, and surrounded by beautiful countryside, Falkland is a wonderful place for walking. You can hike to the top of West Lomond to see the Bunnet Stane rock formation and John Knox’s Pulpit, see Falkland Estate, the hunting ground for Scotland’s royalty, or walk around the village. Fans of ‘Outlander’ will recognize Falkland as the village centre from the TV series, which played the part of Inverness. The village has a lovely choice of traditional pubs, cosy tearooms, and quirky shops. Spectacular Falkland Palace, beloved by Mary, Queen of Scots, has all the glory and splendour expected of a royal residence. Take time to wander round the extensive gardens and orchards and look out for the living willow labyrinth, the giant chess board and the world’s oldest tennis court. If you thought your stay couldn’t get any better, Falkland Estate is just a few minutes away where you can explore the many paths and tracks that run throughout 1900 hectares of land with routes through forest, past active farm land, over burns and to the summit of East Lomond.

Unfortunately we had to rush out before actual check out due to having to take our child to an emergency doctors appointment so didnt leave it as clean as we wouldve liked or leave a review on the guest book but the location was perfect, the place was spotles and had everything we needed, it really was a home away from home
