A beautiful cottage with everything we needed for our holiday.
A beautiful cottage with everything we needed for our holiday. The owner had some lovely little extra touches which made it feel so special. A welcome pack of fresh bread, butter, milk, shortbread, fruit and chocolates were very much appreciated. There were also little cases of flowers throughout which was really lovely. The owners had thought of everything so our stay was just perfect. We would highly recommend this cottage and will definitely return there.

Capelrig is an idyllic holiday cottage which is located on the outskirts of Balfron and is not overlooked. Jeanette and David who live in part of the property are unobtrusive hosts but always helpful with advice if asked. The main feature of the cottage are the extensive beautiful gardens surrounding the property. Capelrig has its own private section of garden, ideal for relaxing when the weather is good. The interior of the property is thoughtfully furnished and spotlessly clean. The cottage is ideally situated for visiting the Trossachs area. All the main places of interest are well within one hours drive. There are numerous good restaurants in the local area along with a Coop store and newsagent / post office.

This was the first time my wife and I have stayed in a cottage as opposed to a hotel on holiday.
This was the first time my wife and I have stayed in a cottage as opposed to a hotel on holiday.We weren't sure what to expect. The cottage was immaculate. It actually looked better on arrival than it did in the pictures on the website. Our hosts were fabulous. We were given total privacy but knew that if there was anything that we needed we simply had to ask. Our hosts had gone the extra mile to make our stay perfect. The cottage is in the perfect location for anyone who enjoys stunning views and easy access to Lochside walks. We would recommend this cottage to anyone and would definitely return.

Superb location in central Scotland, at the end of a lane which made for a very peaceful stay.
Jeanette is a very friendly owner who will do everything possible to make you have a great stay without being intrusive in the slightest.
We liked it that much we have booked again for next September :)

This beautiful cottage was very well equipped and spotlessly clean. Jeanette and David were a very friendly couple and although close at hand were completely unobtrusive.
The garden, which was completely for our own use, was beautifully kept and a pleasure to sit out in when the weather allowed.
All in all an excellent week and would thoroughly recommend this cottage.

This is the BEST, cottage we have ever stayed in. Stayed there for a week, 1:6:19 - 8:6:19. So happy with our choice of cottage. It was cosy, comfortable and had everything we needed and more. First class bedding and towels. All the extras that Jeanette had provided were a lovely treat. The cottage was well maintained and lovely and clean.
