    We had a lovely restful weekend in a beautiful cottage with views over fields.

  • Frances Slater

    The Ploughman’s is a lovely cottage set in a farm. The accommodation is comfortable and well maintained, the kitchen is well equipped for cooking, there is parking just outside and it is well situated for getting around the local area.There is plenty to do locally no matter what your thing, you are close enough to Glasgow and Edinburgh, but also Loch Lomond, the Trossachs and other outdoor activities such as hillwalking and cycling. Only downside was being pretty much straight out on to the main road so you needed to drive to go to somewhere to walk. A fab place to stay. Peaceful and comfortable.

  • John McGregor

    Lovely stay at The Ploughman’s. Very central to lots of areas to visit. Would definitely return to this cottage if we wanted to come to this area again.
