Guests say
The Barn - S4593 is a well-received holiday cottage, praised for its cleanliness, spacious living areas, and scenic location. Guests enjoyed the abundant wildlife and local attractions, though some noted the proximity to a busy road. The property is well-equipped for exploring the Trossachs and beyond, with thoughtful touches from the homeowners during unexpected events.
Guests consistently described the property as clean and well-maintained, indicating high standards of cleanliness.
The location is appreciated for its scenic views and proximity to local attractions, but the nearby busy road and lack of footpaths to the pub were noted as drawbacks.
The property is generally considered comfortable, with mentions of comfy beds and a warm cottage. However, suggestions for a double bed at the quieter rear of the property suggest room for improvement.
The property is described as well-equipped and fully furnished, indicating good facilities. The mention of thoughtful provision of hot water and firewood during a power outage suggests good maintenance, despite the lack of explicit reviews on regular maintenance.
While the homeowners were commended for their support during a power outage, there are no specific mentions of gifts, so it is not possible to score thoughtfulness based on gifts. It should be noted that any additional thoughtful gestures, such as gifts, are not guaranteed.

Lovely spacious barn, but be warned it is very close to the main road with a lot of traffic noise. It could do with a double bed at the back maybe a zip lock for choice. It was too noisy at the front and there were only single beds at the back. Loads of parking. We had a great two weeks there and travelled all over. Minard and Inveraray were places we visited. Rob Roy's grave is a must, beautiful peaceful little church and you can do a walk up through the woods. We saw Red Squirrel here. Scottish antique centre at Doune is nice with a cafe. Gloagburn Farm shop does all sorts and great food. We had a great two weeks here.

The barn is a well-equipped holiday home. It's located on a busy road, but that doesn't bother you. The house is fully equipped.Day trips to Edinburgh and Glen Coe are easy.There's a large supermarket in Killin, and they also had Highland Games there, which was fantastic.We had a power outage due to Storm Floris. The homeowners kept us well-informed about the progress of the repairs. They also provided us with hot water and firewood, which was very thoughtful.

Great place! Clean, lovely living space, comfy beds, good location for visiting Trossachs, Lock Lomond, many other lochs and mountains, Kelpies and Fulkirk wheel and it's actually situated in a very scenic place too.
