Cottage vacation rentals in Strathyre

A great getaway with loads to do close by for whatever mood you're in - great towns and cities like Calendar and Stirling less than half an hour away, equally beautiful countryside and multiple waterfalls, lochs and walks to choose from on the doorstep. Our toddler loved the on site swimming pool and the grown ups enjoyed the peaceful views from the hot tub too! Rosie was so friendly and accommodating.

The Arches was a lovely place to stay. Very comfortable space which allowed us to really relax and switch off. We particularly liked the hot tub and, due to the amazing weather while we were there, we even got to sit in the private courtyard and eat breakfast outdoors. The property has everything you could need. Good kitchen and comfy sofa in the living room. The bed is very comfortable and huge! Fab shower and bath set up. We enjoyed a walk up the hill where the views were stunning. Would recommend this walk. We went into Cupar for lunch one day and ate in the Boudingait which was very tasty food. Would recommend. We would definitely return to The Arches. We’ve been to a lot of AirBnB properties and this is up there with the best we’ve been to. Thank you!

This garden cottage was straight out of a romantic fairytale! The gorgeous garden surrounding the cottage and the view of the water and misty rolling hills framed perfectly by a stone wall and ivy were just breathtaking (especially while sitting in the wood fire heated hot tub). The cottage itself was incredibly cozy. We had nearly gotten stranded on Islay with car issues and we weren’t even sure we’d get to enjoy this stop on our holiday. By the time we arrived, we were completely exhausted from the chaos of the previous 24 hours so this relaxing and welcoming space was exactly what we needed to decompress. ☺️ The cottage was well equipped and very clean! We had everything we needed and then some. Caroline was an exceptional host. She was remarkably responsive and lovely to interact with both prior to our stay (when we weren’t sure we’d be able to make it) and during our stay! Anyone with the opportunity to stay here, should absolutely do it! Thank you for everything, Caroline!!

We had a great time here. The location was great for us (easy drives to Fort William, Glencoe, and Kinlochmore). The home is very clean and in a perfect location. We were able to walk to dinner one night, and we were able to visit great locations in all different direction from the home. Every drive is along water with beautiful scenery all around. On Day 1 we drove 30 min North, where we hiked to Steall Waterfall before having lunch in Fort William. Afternoon at Ben Nevis Distillery followed by a gondola ride at Nevis Range for some afternoon hiking. Day 2 we drove 15 min East to Grey Mare’s Tail waterfall, lunch in Kinlochleven, and an afternoon hike around Glencoe Lochan. Day 3, we drove 15 min East to the Three Sisters area, where we enjoyed our favorite hike of the trip, Hidden Valley. We also visited Skyfall Waterfall and explored Glen Etive. I will definitely stay here again the next time I’m lucky enough to visit Scotland. Mary is incredible and a great host! Beautiful home!

We absolutely loved staying at the cottage. This was our third place during our Scotland trip and I am so glad we booked it. It allowed us to explore more nature scenes across Scotland and simply have a safe and comfortable home after exploring all day. If we are ever in Scotland again, we will certainly book again.

Was very happy with our stay here, The evening with the hot tub was lovely and private, everything was clean and well presented. There was games left in the house for our use and we got use of these. The instructions before arriving to find location was helpful although the postcode in Apple Maps did take us straight the correct location which was great. Overall we were very pleased with the whole experience and would stay again. The added bonus was the hosts had a new puppy and we got to meet this beautiful fur baby on checkout.

Dina was great. She was away while we visited but was still helpful and responsive from Australia. Beautiful peaceful little home with views of the pasture, cows, and rabbits from the hot tub area.

I absolutely loved this serene little guesthouse tucked away just outside of Edinburgh. It was very nice, clean, and functional for our family group. It was easy to navigate from there to surrounding areas by car. Ali was so personable and friendly! Truly a pleasure to stay here, and we would gladly stay again!

Hi Anna , we have had a great time at your hide away cosy cottage whilst also going out and exploring what the area near and afar has to offer. We travelled from near Oban for our first week when we went to the Isle of Mull and then this week we did make time to visit the Isle of Skye which was spectacular. We live in mid Wales so use to the unpredictable weather but on the whole it’s been good to us . Great place to base ourselves from . The wildlife in the garden have been great to see as well and the dogs have loved it . Thank you .

The stay at the beautiful cottage was exceptional. The views from the house are amazing, the house is equipped with high end bathroom and bedroom fabrics and amenities and the house is beautifully decorated and very spacious. Even more beautiful than on the pictures. As a welcome there was a hand written card and hand picked wildflowers and a very generous food package with milk, eggs, ciders, treats etc. Rachel was responding very quickly and was super nice and helpful. When we are in the area again we would be back any time. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at Ginny’s cottage - it’s incredibly comfortable, with stunning views and easy access to lovely local walks. The spacious garden was a real highlight - perfect for our dog to explore, and we were lucky enough to see the red squirrels at the feeders! Ginny was a communicative and thoughtful host: communication was smooth and everything was just as described. We also hugely enjoyed the delicious baked goods and beautiful flowers from Ginny’s sister, Lynne. A very peaceful trip, would happily return!

Bluebell Cottage was absolutely perfect, and Christy was an excellent host, so kind, generous and responsive. There were so many lovely touches to make us feel at home and help us settle in. Many places say they have a well-equipped kitchen and that's not always true, but in this case the kitchen was better equipped than our own! Aberfoyle is a peaceful spot and a perfect base for exploring the Trossachs and Loch Lomond region. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this beautiful cottage

We had a wonderful stay at Moray cottage. The cottage has all the comforts of home in a lovely village close to Stirling. The local pub , 3 doors down , served delicious meals and there is a well stocked co op close by . David went above and beyond to make us feel at home . After a long days travel we really appreciated the breakfast supplies and yummy biscuits. And when we left helped us out with luggage storage. A big thank you for that. This was a very peaceful place to return to after busy days exploring .

very quiet. had everything we needed and a true Scottish feel. would stay again

Lovely, picturesque, peaceful location and amazing property with everything you need for your stay. We had a wonderful few days here and would highly recommend this place.

Lovely and tranquil, would love to return in the summer.clean and fresh.another great Airbnb experience.easy to find and all essentials there too like teabags/coffee .my dogs first night away and she loved it too..thanks Vicki

Had a very quiet and relaxing stay! The cottage was super lovely and would highly recommend it to anyone! Would definitely stay there again! Kelly was a great host!

We had a great stay at the cottage; it’s remote and peaceful. The cottage was well-equipped and cosy. The conservatory is great for reading and relaxing and there is an amazing collection of DVDs! The surrounding area is beautiful and there are nice walks in the area. The nearest supermarket is in Aberfeldy, about 10 minutes away.

We had a great experience staying with Chris and Susan, and would highly recommend this to anyone in the area - head and shoulders above hotels at a similar price point. We stayed for 3 nights, looking for a base between Fort William and Glencoe for hiking. The cottage is very well located for what we had planned and was a welcome break from the string of damp and dingy hotels that we had stayed in beforehand. The place is very well equipped, with a smart TV in case the weather takes a turn and everything you could need for home cooking and lunch prep (which was a huge bonus for our hikes). If you are lucky with the weather, there’s even space to eat outside and enjoy the incredible views. The cottage was clean and well maintained and although we didn’t have any issues, Chris and Susan clearly care about ensuring everything meets their standards. If we ever come back to the Highlands, we will look to stay again!

Fairygreen Cottage was the last stop on our holiday trip and it couldn't have been better! From the first step into the house until the very last minute, we absolutely enjoyed our stay there. The cottage is lovingly furnished, equipped with everything one needs and shows a high standard in quality. We felt very welcomed and comfortable and wish to come back!

We had a wonderful stay at Craigdarroch Cottage, it was an excellent cosy base to come back to after some beautiful walks in the local area. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals, beds were clean & comfy and the living area was warm and cosy with a nice fire going in the evening.

We had a great weekend at Fiona’s cottage despite the rainy weather. The cottage is as described and would be absolutely delightful to sit in the beautiful garden enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The cottage is very private and well looked after. We loved lighting up the log fire in the evenings sipping a glass (or 2) of wine and watching the rain fall, absolutely magical. Fiona is a very responsive and helpful host, when we arrived at the cottage we realised there was no hot water, we contacted Fiona and whithin an hour (or less!) we had a technician come to us who solved the problem in a matter of minutes, we were very impressed by Fiona’s prompt action. We managed to bike down to Old Castle Lachlan and Kilmorie Chapel when the rain let up a bit, lovely scenery and an easy ride on our e-bikes. We dined at The Creggan’s Inn and spotted a red squirrel, 2 does and a fawn on the road down to/from The Oystercatcher, absolutely amazing! Thank you for having us Fiona, we will be back!

We absolutely loved our stay at Cnoch Famh Cottage. The cottage was lovely, clean and had everything we needed and the garden was amazing! We loved sitting out and enjoying the view and our dog loved the enclosed land. There's lots of local walks and it's ideally based to explore the Trossachs. We'd love to come back

This is a beautiful little cottage with everything you need at hand. The house is well equipped, with comfy beds, a cosy fire, beautiful garden bursting with flowers and even a treehouse and a swing. There’s hot water in the shower and I had time for my first bath in months. There are generous chickens and sweet Highland Cows, a games room for a rainy half hour before tea and once you’ve emerged from the 2 mile, privacy ensuring, private road/drive, so much to do. Aberfoyle is charming and full of the things you need (as well as some you just want) and then glorious walks, castles, lochs, views and general good times unfold in front of you. Highly recommended. (Oh - I forgot Amy - Amy’s communication is unfailing prompt and helpful. Thanks Amy.)
