We have returned to this property several times. If you want a country escape in a beautiful place this is it. The owners have thought of everything you could need and leave a welcome pack of essentials. It is clean, comfortable and has a cosy wood burner. Comrie and Crieff are a short drive and you are in a perfect spot to take day trips around Scotland.

A wonderful stay at Geordies Byre. The accommodation was very spacious, with a small secure lawned garden - the surrounding scenery was superb. Mown paths through the bracken were great for morning/evening strolls with the dog, straight out of the door. Fiona and family were most welcoming hosts and our Bryn (BC) also got on well with the resident dogs, Reggie and Nellie 🐾🐾Nearby Comrie is a lovely community, with a selection of amenities. The pub/bar attached to the Royal Hotel was a great informal space (inside and out) for drinks and meals. On the outskirts of the village Comrie Croft was great for provisions (a lot of the fruit and veg grown on site) and a bustling spot for a coffee. Many walks radiate from the village, Glen Lednock was our favourite - shady woodland, waterfalls and the cooling river💚 Also, plenty of great places to visit further afield. Stirling and its castle, Falkirk and the Kelpies, plus all the surrounding hills, lochs and glens. Top tip for parking in Stirling - park all day, for a modest charge, using the ‘ringo’ app., in Sainsbury’s car park and it is a pleasant 15/20 min walk up to the castle, via the ‘Back Walk'.
