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

Ferienhaus super ausgestattet

Ein tolles Haus in super Lage in den Lowlands. Es war wirklich alles vorhanden was man braucht!Wir waren mit 6 Erwachsenen unterwegs und das hat hervorragend gepasst. Gute Basis für Ausflüge nach Stirling, Edinburgh, Loch Lomond und Loch Katrine. Unbedingt die kleine Wanderung ab dem Ferienhaus zu den Bracklin Falls machen. Wir können Callasraid nur weiter empfehlen.

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!

What an amazing house. The house lacks nothing, the minute we walked in we felt right at home. Very comfortable to accommodate a family of six. Amanda is a wonderful host. From the beginning with instructions on how to get to the house, where to buy groceries, nearby restaurants and the nice welcome package.

Una casa perfetta!

Niente da dire su questa casa perfetta nella scelta degli arredi, nel confort, negli accessori completi per la cucina. Silenziosa, spaziosa e Amanda molto gentile e cordiale nonostante non abbia avuto il piacere di conoscerla di persona. Callander è una bel tranquillo paese, senza macchina però non lo coniglio perché i maggiori treni e bus partono da Stirling. La distanza è circa 40 min e la tratta non è a buon prezzo. Noi famiglia di 5 ne abbiamo risentito a far sempre avanti e indietro. Comunque Scozia the best! E la casa di Amanda un piccolo gioiello. I miei bambini super felici per la play station.

Tolles Haus für Ausflüge zum Loch Lomond und Stirling

Das Haus ist sehr modern und großzügig, wir hatten als Familie mit 2 großen Kindern sehr viel Platz. Die Ausstattung ist wie in der Beschreibung einwandfrei, das Wifi ausgezeichnet. Der Parkplatz ist direkt vor der Tür, das Haus liegt in einer reinen Wohngegend. In das Stadtzentrum kann man sehr gut über einen schönen Fußweg in ca. 20 Minuten gehen, dort gibt es Geschäfte und Restaurants. Die Vermieterin ist immer für Rückfragen zu erreichen und antwortet sehr schnell.
