About this property

Strathyre 2.9 miles. Enjoying exceptional views across the Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park is Ninevah, a stone-fronted, three-bedroom cottage, resting in Auchtubh near Strathyre, Stirling. Set rurally, offering a peaceful base with a wealth of walking, and cycling opportunities in the area, Ninevah makes a wonderful home for a family break, inviting up to six guests. Travel down the countryside track before parking up in the courtyard, taking in the expansive vistas enveloping your new home. Head indoors to firstly reach the homely sitting room, complete with plush seating, a large, wall-mounted TV, and a rustling woodburning stove, to light on cooler evenings. Locate the kitchen/diner, well-equipped for a self-catered stay, where you can even keep on top of your washing, whilst the dining room offers the perfect space to eat, socialise and host your loved ones. As the sun sets over Scotland, catch some rest from one of three spacious and well-appointed double bedrooms; the first is set on the ground floor with a handy shower room next door, ideal for those with limited mobility. Upstairs you'll find the two further bedrooms, serviced by a bathroom with a lovely corner bath and shower over. Refresh and prepare for your upcoming adventure, before enjoying a coffee in the suntrap conservatory, providing access to the rear, enclosed patio. Grab your walking boots and traverse across the surrounding hills, where you'll also be presented with the chance to summit either Ben Vorlich, or Ben More, or discover the beauty of Loch Voil, for an afternoon of wild swimming and kayaking, whilst the Cycle route 7 is nearby, perfect to follow for tours of the region. By car head into Callander, home to a golf course, and a hub of amenities dotted across River Teith, recommended to visit to stock up on the essentials or dine out as a family. Travel towards Crieff, stopping off at the picturesque landscape of Deil's Cauldron Waterfall, or a daytrip to Auchingarrich Wildlife Park, whilst heading south will bring you to the Blair Drummond Safari and Adventure Park sure to please the children of your group. Escape to rural Scotland by booking Ninevah.

EPC Rating Band: D

Only seven miles from the ancient town of Callander is the small settlement of Strathyre, which is named after the Gaelic phrase meaning "broad winding valley" and is located at the head of Loch Lubnaig, protected by Ben Ledi, Ben Vane, and Ben Shian. As a former resting point for cattle drovers and current home to a café, a small village store, a post office, and a tavern that serves meals, Strathyre has long been a favourite destination for tourists. Beautiful, verdant woodlands cover the hills on either side of the valley, drawing hikers, cyclists, and fell runners every year. In May, competitors compete in the strenuous Strathyre Stuc a Chroin 5000 hill race. The 18-hole golf course at Callander, which is among the top ten courses in Scotland, is only a short drive away.
