Lovely stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. David was very helpful both before our stay and on arrival. The cottage was ideal and we chatted with a few local people when out on walks with the dog. It was a very friendly place. Would love to stay again sometime. Lots of things we didn't get a chance to see.

Lovely cottage

Had a great stay. Although we didn’t physically meet the host (our choice as we were meeting family over from the states) he was very welcoming, providing us with a fountain of information on the surrounding area and quick to reply to any queries we had (also supplying us with milk, bread etc which was a lovely touch.Cottage was very clean and tidy. The back garden is beautiful, with a pond full of wildlife our girls loved.Would definitely recommend to anyone wishing to stay at a great place a very short journey from Stirling.

A unique quaint cottage

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at David’s lovely cottage.we lacked for nothing. David has outfitted the cottage with everything one could need. The location was central to Edinburgh, Stirling & Glasgow. Thanks to David we availed ourselves of the tram & bus to venture to Edinburgh & Glasgow. Would definitely recommend this cottage.

Excellent cottage in central location!

We were able to visit several areas well known and not so well known from this location. The cottage itself was immaculate and so well appointed with anything that you might need. The host meet us at check in and went over everything and answered our questions. He also sent us some very helpful information about local restaurants and sights to see. We hope to be able to visit again!

Amazing place

We stayed here for a week and the cottage is home from home. David met us to show us around the cottage then left us to it. Everything was comfy, bed, couches, kitchen VERY well stocked, lovely garden. Villiage is lovely and nice staff and food at The Gargunnock Inn which is couple of doors away. Cottage was the perfect base to explore some of Scotland. Would 100% recommend and return.

Villiage comfort

We loved being immersed in a very friendly village, but so near to so many points of interest. Good dining treadily available or stay in with a great kitchen. Our host, David, was very attentine to communication and very helpful with information about both sites and use of the cottage. We would definitely come back!

Delightful, beautifully decorated cosy cottage, just a short drive to Stirling centre.

David greeted us and gave us all the necessary info. The photo on the website is actually taken from the garden at the back which was amusing but David's directions were perfect. A generous welcome pack was provided. The cottage is very tastefully decorated, well equipped and cosy. We very much enjoyed our stay. The only downside was the bath/shower was too high for my 82 year old mother to get into but the added bonus was The Gargunnock Inn, a wonderfully friendly gastro pub next door.

Absolutely beautiful

We couldn't have asked for a more magical place to stay than Moray Cottage. David met us at the door and was so gracious. The Cottage was squeaky clean, the beds were very comfortable as was the living room furniture. The kitchen was spacious and very well appointed. We had everything we needed. Our favorite part was the beautiful back yard. Like a fairy tale. Thank you David for sharing your place with us. If we ever come back or know someone who is traveling to that area we will definitely recommend this place.

Moray Cottage

Moray Cottage was wonderful. David our host is a great host and communicator. When we got to the cottage he came and went over all the necessary information about the cottage. The WiFi worked perfectly for the four of us. David even provided breakfast staples so we hadn’t a need to venture out our first night. The cottage is located a mere hundred yards from the village shop which has everything you could need. The cottage is centrally located between Edinburgh and Glasgow for sightseeing. We had a great time and look forward to staying with David at Moray Cottage on our future trips to Scotland.

Perfectly equipped dream-cottage

We wanted for nothing more in the very clean Murray Cottage. The equipment is comprehensive and the furnishings are very tasteful. The AGA cooker is fantastic and the garden is enchanting. The nearby Gannuck Inn (three houses down) and the shopping facilities in Stirling made our stay perfect. The host is very friendly and accommodating. By far the best accommodation we have ever had! We would love to come back.

Comfortable, Clean and Charming

This sparkling cottage was a true pleasure to stay in. Comfortable beds. Fully equipped kitchen. Bright bathroom. Lovely garden. Quaint town with a great pub/restaurant 3 doors down, and easy distance to all of the sights and activities in the Stirling area. We loved the quality of the furniture, appliances and kitchen dishes and cookware. Easy parking was such a luxury. Thank you David for sharing your lovely cottage!
