Amazing
We had the most amazing two week stay at the Coach house. Gavin & Linzi are wonderful hosts and made us feel very welcome. The house is very spacious and has everything for your everyday needs,great for a family holiday of all ages. The location is perfect as it's only a ten minute drive to Stirling town yet you would think you were in the middle of nowhere with outstanding views. It was great having the cows so close to the house and gave us many hours of amusement with the added bonus of seeing one of the calves being born and naming the one that was born on the date we arrived. This house has given us great memories to treasure that we didn't want to leave, we also now call it the Coo Hoose. Would definitely book again. Thank you Gavin & Linzi.

WE ENJOYED STAYING HERE. IT WAS CONVENIENT TO ALL OF THE CASTLES, GARDENS AND OTHER SITES AROUND STIRLING, UP TO PERTH AND EASTWARD. THE HOUSE IS LOCATED ON THE OWNERS FARM. IT WAS PEACEFUL AND QUIET. IT HAD ALL THE AMENITIES LISTED IN THE SITE. IT WAS A GREAT PLACE TO RELAX AFTER A BUSY DAY TOURING. WHILE BEING IN A RURAL SETTING, YOU ARE CLOSE TO ROADS TO GET TO ALL THE THINGS THERE ARE TO DO. THE EDINBURGH AIRORT IS ONLY 40 MINUTES AWAY.

Great Hosts and wonderful Garden for Youngsters
Spacious and well equipped house with cattle in a farmyard out the window. The cows looked like they envied our outdoor happy hours! Once you get on Chalmerston Road, you need to read a very small blue sign to find it. Perfect location near tourist spots in Stirling and environs and close to the most interesting small towns. Only criticism is there were no drawers for unpacking, so I lived out of my suitcase.

Our Stay at the Coach House
This house was the perfect base for our two weeks in Stirling. Linzi and Gavin are an amazing couple who were very helpful and accommodating. The house was in a peaceful farm setting and had all the amenities that we needed. The house was clean and spacious. We enjoyed watching the cows, pheasants, hares, ducks and many types of birds.

Wonderful property
You could not find a better place to stay for a family holiday in the centre of Scotland. It is also great for couples travelling together. The location is excellent. Just a stone’s throw from Stirling and close to many great attractions. We were able to visit the Kelpies, Falkirk Wheel, Safari Park, Stirling Castle, Glasgow, and the Bridge of Allan. Many more places are also close by. The house is very spacious , comfortable and easily accommodates all. Four bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a play room as well as a large fully equipped kitchen, living room and dining room. The appliances are top of the line. The views from every window are beautiful. The hosts are welcoming , gracious.and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this property.

Great Place to Stay
We had a brilliant stay, perfect location within 5mins of Stirling town centre but have the countryside location. The house was a perfect base for us and had everything we needed. The children loved watching the cows and the tractor in the field. Linzi gave great recommendations on places to visit. Would recommend and would stay again.

A peaceful retreat yet so close to everything !!
A really big and beautiful home set on a farm and only a few minutes from the nearest City of Stirling. So convenient to all the major roads to be the perfect base to explore Scotland and return to each evening. Perfect space for time together around the large dining table and also providing an additional games room too.. Thoroughly recommend and we hope to return again soon

Brilliant! Recommend
We stayed 5 adults and 2 children and the property more than fully accommodated us all. We managed to see St Andrews, Stirling, Glasgow and Edinburgh. Really good spot to drive to places you wish to see. We walked the nearest pub took around 35 min walk but was worth it.

Our family holiday
We wanted somewhere to celebrate our golden wedding with the family & we couldn't have chosen a better house or location. We had all the entertainment we needed from our neighbours ( the cows & calves in the field), no need for the tv to be on. We will certainly be recommending the house to family & friends..

Oct break
The house was warm, clean, spacious and very comfortable. It is in a beautifully setting but central for accessing a wide range of opportunities and activities to meet all the family needs. Gavin and Linzi were accessible and reassuring regarding their Covid preparations and practices, which was very important given current circumstances. Due to limitations on what we could do given Covid restrictions the house and surrounding garden provided the ideal relaxing base for the whole family.

Covid Holiday
The house is in beautiful countryside with great views. We booked the property due to our holiday in France being cancelled due to Covid and had mentioned this when booking. On arrival there was a variety of French produce awaiting us - what a lovely and thoughtful touch. The house is very spacious, immaculately clean and great for a family or like us just a couple - we will definitely return.

A great house just outside Stirling. Quiet farm location yet with easy access to the town and main roads to explore locally and beyond. The house is well equipped with everything a family needs for a stay. I'd stay here again next time we come.

Superb location!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cowden farm. The accommodation was very spacious and well equipped. Whilst at the property you feel very much out in the countryside yet are just a few minutes drive from the motorway which enabled us to visit Edinburgh and Glasgow for the day, Stirling itself is just 10 minutes away. Our host made us feel very welcome.

Family break
A lovely house on a working farm . Plenty room , and facilities. We held a family gathering there and everyone commented on how good the house was. The setting was a good base to visit family and friends and see some of the local , the Falkirk wheel , the Blair Drummond park and of course the castle and Wallace monument. Within easy access to a supermarket we organised a delivery for us due within an hour of our arrival . It turned up on time. The bedrooms accommodated us all and we even had a spare. The kitchen had all the usual appliances and accessories. All in all a great house for a family with plenty to do and see in the surrounding area.

Rural living close to city life
This property is unique in that the setting is on a farm yet it is only a few miles from all the attractions the area has to offer. The coach house itself is very spacious with spectacular views. The downstairs bedroom and disabled bathroom are wonderful facilities for those who need them. We had great joy watching the cows give birth to their calves right next door to the house. Plenty of room for kids to play outside and a toy room inside was loved by our children. The whole week was very relaxing and very comfortable.

Home away from home
This house was perfect for our needs. It was large enough for our family, and very comfortable. We loved the farm setting, as it was peaceful and lovely. The location was ideal and allowed for day trips to Glasgow and Edinburgh. Gavin and Linzie were nearby if we needed anything. Very hospitable. We would stay here again.
