Very well equipped and good communication

We had a really nice week visiting Blair Drummond, Stirling, Loch Lomond & some of the smaller castles/attractions in the area. It's a very short walk along to a garage where you can pick up basics & a 5 minute drive to the center. All in all a good location to explore the area and loads to see within a 1 hour drive. The cottage was really well equipped with some basics like oil/salt/spices as well as a lovely welcome pack, great selection of cooking equipment in the kitchen & plenty of towels/toilet roll etc. in bathrooms. The living/dining area was spacious, the beds were comfy & the parking was super easy. Amanda was really quick to respond and helpful when we had a couple of queries before checking in. We had a great stay.

Pleasant Weeks Break

Nicely located on the edge of town the 2 of us thoroughly enjoyed our week in this property. Extremely clean and very spacious . It could easily handle 6 people as all 3 rooms are very large. Very large lounge diner . Nice sized kitchen. Upstairs a fine sized family bathroom and the en-suite in the master bedroom was ideal. All in all a great place to be located . But personally I am still studying for instructions with regards to the 4 wheelie bins & the bottle box ( it tickled my humour) Communicating with the host was easy simple and always positive. 5/5 from us around

Nice Property

Although the property is mid terrace it was very quiet and we never heard anything from the neighbours. It is right on the edge of Callander and it is quite a long walk into Callander itself. The property is spacious and very well equipped and we didn't find it lacking in anything. It's a good base for exploring the Trossachs and Stirling is just a short drive away.

Beautiful callander

The house was lovely and spacious and a well placed base from which to explore the surrounding area, safari Park around 20 mins away, under an hour to Stirling Castle, even Loch lomond not a long drive from callander. The whole family had a great time and would definitely book again, a big thanks to Amanda for making us feel so welcome and for being so helpful.

Beautiful property

We had a fabulous stay at Calasraid! The property was exactly as described and was lovely and clean. Instructions were brilliant, from finding the house to getting in, from information inside the house about the local area to checking out info- it was all brilliant! It is the most well equipped house we have ever stayed in! Kitchen was well equipped with everything you would need and more! Even down to the small things like lots of hangers in the wardrobes (it’s so frustrating usually when holiday rentals only give you about 4 per person) and loads of maps and guide books on the local area!! Communication with Amanda was also fabulous! It all made for a wonderful holiday! We will be back for sure!! Thank you x

One of the nicest rentals we've ever stayed in!

Our family of four adults enjoyed this spacious and pristine homely retreat for five nights, making day trips to see the beautiful and peaceful natural scenery in the Trossachs. Amanda was really helpful giving us recommendations to plan our trip and even had a website with lots of useful information, as well as a printed guide and several maps in the house itself. The welcome pack complete with bubbly was a nice surprise (not seen that elsewhere)! As others have said, Amanda has really thought about everything; a fully equipped kitchen (which we used to cook several meals), all the TV-related entertainment you could want (including a PlayStation), modern and tasteful decor with solid furniture throughout, even a round picnic bench in the garden. Even though it's a mid-terrace house we didn't hear either of the neighbours. Callander is good in that it has several restaurants and pubs without being too big, yet close to the scenic spots. We really enjoyed walking at the nearby Bracklinn Falls/Ben A'an/Falls of Leny, boat trip at Loch Katrine and also Dochart Falls/Loch Tay in Killin. The The tour of Deanston distillery in Doune was really interesting. We would most happily stay again if we came back to the Trossachs. Thanks Amanda!

A really fabulous place to stay in Callander

We loved Calasraid, a very well equipped, comfortable and clean home to stay. Loved the location with easy walk into Callander. Everything worked well, no problems at all. Easy arrival and parking. Wished we were staying longer and will definitely try to stay there next time we’re in Callander. Thank you Amanda it was perfect!

Beautiful clean house with everything for your stay.

Calasraid is a wonderful comfortable house with everything you would ever need for your stay. It is within walking distance of local shops and pubs and is in a beautiful part of Scotland. There were 4 adults and 2 children in our party and we all loved the house, local tourist areas and the friendly service we received from the owner Amanda. She was always available to answer any questions we had. hopefully we will be back in the not too distant future.

Excellent home away from home

My family and friends stayed at Calasraid in July 2016 and it was perfect for our holiday. The house was spacious, modern and clean with all the facilities we needed. We have a toddler and the house was great for him - with the garden accessible from the lounge which was a great, safe place for him to play and a highchair, stairgate and travel cot all provided by the owner. The house is in a great location with lots of places to eat round about and when we didn't want to eat out, the kitchen had all the facilities we needed to cook. Both the information provided by the owner in the house as well as in the e-mails sent before our stay was so helpful and made us feel very welcome. Thank you.

Brilliant location , fantastic house

We spent half term in this fantastic house. It was spotlessly clean, really spacious, comfortable and beautifully appointed. It had everything we needed for self catering with more in relation to kitchen equipment, entertainment options was lovely and warm to come back to after a long day trek in thr rain.The location is perfect if you want to explore the stunning landscape and enjoy some great food at excellent local restaurants.For kids there was plenty to entertain them all within an easy drive. Amanda and Laura could not have not have been more helpful and welcoming. I will be recommending to friends and would have no hesitation in renting tgis lovely house again.
