The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare that special meal, but if you prefer a proper holiday break then it is only a short drive of 15 minutes or so to the popular and bustling town of Killin with its excellent selection of bars, restaurants, cafés and shops. Slightly further away but easily reached are St Fillans and Comrie which both also have excellent restaurants and cafes. Lochearnhead itself is a small village but still hosts a popular Highland Games during the summer and is also renowned for it’s sheep shearing competition.
The area around the cottage is a haven for wildlife and you may get the chance to spot red squirrels, a great variety of wild birds and red deer. There are walks from the door taking you to the Glen Ogle Trail, for those needing more of a challenge there is the long distance Rob Roy Trial and also a great choice of Munro peaks to be bagged. If you would rather just enjoy some rest and relaxation, then take a while in the sun room and enjoy the views over the stunning Perthshire hills and meadows.
The cottage is in the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park and there is easy access to all the activities and attractions of the Park. Lochearn itself has many opportunities for water skiing, sailing, canoeing, walking, cycling, fishing or simply relaxing by visiting the local historic sites and villages. Not to be missed are the famous and spectacular Falls of Dochart at Killin along with the BLiSS trail of eye catching art and architectural installations linking the villages of Strathyre, Balquhidder, Lochearnhead and St Fillans and the National Trust for Scotland Moirlanich Longhouse near Killin.
Scotland’s darker history can be explored locally with the tombstone for seven Macdonalds of Glencoe who were killed while attempting a raid on Ardvorlich House in 1620. While the cottage is in a very rural location it is still easy to explore Scotland’s wider history with Stirling Castle, Scone Place, Edinburgh, Oban and Blair Drummond Wildlife Park all making for a good day out.
