Had a great time, great views and wildlife. Great location to see areas of Scotland from the coast to Perth, 20 min from Tesco so make you collect food and fuel when your out and about.

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.
