Within Leny House is the recently restored medieval north wing to provide a sumptuous self-catering apartment with arched open fireplace, oak galleries and panelling. Also available are our award winning lodges and cottages. The 5 solid spruce lodges have been designed and situated on a small peaceful site to take advantage of the stunning views towards the Trossachs and Ben Ledi, long considered to be a particularly beautiful part of Scotland.

The dining room sits on a mezzanine floor over-looking the lounge and open arched fireplace. Two luxurious bedrooms are furnished with Victorian antiques and have 4 poster beds (5ft) with heraldic drapes on the beds and at the windows.

The north wing is furnished with genuine antiques and artefacts and maybe unsuitable for young children.
