Strictly no stag/hen parties - but we encourage social gatherings if the house is treated with respect. The accommodation consists of 8 bedrooms and each can be configured as a double bed. 4 of the bedrooms allow the beds to be split to form 2 singles beds. To clarify, this leads to a maximum of 12 separate beds (8 single beds, 4 double beds) across 8 bedrooms.

This was the perfect home for our large group. Historic, beautiful, a great yard, two large sitting rooms, a well- equipped kitchen and ample parking (for two cars and a minibus!). The pavilion cafe and playground are stellar spots for families and it was easy to get around and pop to the coop or the local pub. We’d definitely stay again. It didn’t have a bbq and the showers were a bit temperamental, but these are minor concerns in an otherwise brilliant property!

Great house in Stirling!

We LOVED the house - even if the kids decided it was very likely haunted (which I think they liked lol). We had a large group in Scotland traveling around and this location allowed everyone to do what they wanted. The only thing is I wish there was a larger grocery store in walking distance (we did find a Co-op). I wish there were better photos of the house and property as I really had no idea what to expect from the VRBO photos. However, it is quite charming and the yard was huge - the kids loved it and I enjoyed spending some time outside while catching up on emails. If we have another large group in Scotland - we will be back!!

Perfect Vacation Home For Large Families or Groups

I have rented a LOT of homes on VRBO. This home is one of the best! Located in a quiet neighborhood, this lovely home has enough room for everyone. TWO sitting rooms along with a spacious dining room with a HUGE dining table. Large kitchen for those who like to cook. Washer and dryer worked great. If the weather is good, there's a table and chairs outside by the lawn. If I were to return I would definitely stay here again. It will not disappoint!

Die Vorbereitung zu unserer Reise waren mehr als leicht und zuvorkommend. Das Haus liegt wunderbar ruhig und insgesamt sehr sauber. Die Bäder sind teils neu renoviert. Die Einrichtung entspricht dem Charme des ganzen Hauses. Der mitgeschickte Plan/Grundriss des Hauses ist etwas abweichend von der eigentlichen Aufteilung, das verwirrt etwas bei der Anreise . Alles in allem sehr zu empfehlen, wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und kommen sicher wieder.

Perfect homebase for a busy week

We needed a space to accomodate our large group for a wedding. Not only was this space large enough, but it was so affordable. We loved the charm of the space, & enjoyed spending many meals around the dining room table. The address was a little off (maps was taking us across the street, instead of to this home - which was tough to navigate in the dark). All in all, we are so grateful for our time spent here.
