Cottage holiday rentals in Crarae Furnace

Lakeside Cottage is beautiful, peaceful, steeped in history & easy to access once you know where it is, we drove past it 3 times lol. We were greeted with gorgeous fresh flowers in each room & a very tasty bottle of prosecco. Most Definitely will be going back at some point in the near future & can't recommend it enough as a quiet getaway - listening to the river Ayr was blissful!!

A great getaway with loads to do close by for whatever mood you're in - great towns and cities like Calendar and Stirling less than half an hour away, equally beautiful countryside and multiple waterfalls, lochs and walks to choose from on the doorstep. Our toddler loved the on site swimming pool and the grown ups enjoyed the peaceful views from the hot tub too! Rosie was so friendly and accommodating.

A fantastic, well equipped cottage in a peacefull setting. Great for staying in or getting out and about the local area.

This garden cottage was straight out of a romantic fairytale! The gorgeous garden surrounding the cottage and the view of the water and misty rolling hills framed perfectly by a stone wall and ivy were just breathtaking (especially while sitting in the wood fire heated hot tub). The cottage itself was incredibly cozy. We had nearly gotten stranded on Islay with car issues and we weren’t even sure we’d get to enjoy this stop on our holiday. By the time we arrived, we were completely exhausted from the chaos of the previous 24 hours so this relaxing and welcoming space was exactly what we needed to decompress. ☺️ The cottage was well equipped and very clean! We had everything we needed and then some. Caroline was an exceptional host. She was remarkably responsive and lovely to interact with both prior to our stay (when we weren’t sure we’d be able to make it) and during our stay! Anyone with the opportunity to stay here, should absolutely do it! Thank you for everything, Caroline!!

We absolutely loved staying at the cottage. This was our third place during our Scotland trip and I am so glad we booked it. It allowed us to explore more nature scenes across Scotland and simply have a safe and comfortable home after exploring all day. If we are ever in Scotland again, we will certainly book again.

Was very happy with our stay here, The evening with the hot tub was lovely and private, everything was clean and well presented. There was games left in the house for our use and we got use of these. The instructions before arriving to find location was helpful although the postcode in Apple Maps did take us straight the correct location which was great. Overall we were very pleased with the whole experience and would stay again. The added bonus was the hosts had a new puppy and we got to meet this beautiful fur baby on checkout.

Dina was great. She was away while we visited but was still helpful and responsive from Australia. Beautiful peaceful little home with views of the pasture, cows, and rabbits from the hot tub area.

Had a lovely stay at this cottage . Near to Edinburgh as my son was doing the marathon but in a lovely location . Kylie was response to our messages and a lovely homemade loaf gave that extra touch for our arrival . Would definitely recommend and stay again .

Hi Anna , we have had a great time at your hide away cosy cottage whilst also going out and exploring what the area near and afar has to offer. We travelled from near Oban for our first week when we went to the Isle of Mull and then this week we did make time to visit the Isle of Skye which was spectacular. We live in mid Wales so use to the unpredictable weather but on the whole it’s been good to us . Great place to base ourselves from . The wildlife in the garden have been great to see as well and the dogs have loved it . Thank you .

The cottage is beautiful and comfortable to stay in. We didn't get a chance to light the log burner but it would be lovely on a cool night, and we were supplied with plenty of logs. The area is stunning and there is plenty to do locally. Andrew was always happy to chat and even brought over some toys for our baby.

Words cannot express the wonderful week we have had on Loch Katrine. Old Smiddy is ideally located for hiking the mountains, lochs and woodland and Carole has thought of all you need to make it feel like a home from home. Having our morning tea watching the Barn Swallows and House Martins catching their breakfast on the lake in the sunshine was very special. Aberfoyle has all you need for food and cute shops and fantastic Doone Hill walk from the town - Free Parking!!! A ferry trip on the Sir Walter Scott from the pier over to Trossachs Pier is a MUST and the Primrose Hill hike was stunning. The Pier Cafe is outstanding, definitely worth a treat and just a short walk away. Thank you Carole for sharing your amazing house, we will be back to enjoy the hot tub and sauna 🤞

Absolutely wonderful place to enjoy a getaway! The location is fantastic with such a peaceful atmosphere. The house itself was great, clean, fresh and very big! We really enjoyed our time here and wish we could have stayed for longer! The host was great with communication and very friendly! There is nothing negative I can say with this one. It was perfect.

Had a wonderful stay at Braco. The cottage is in a lovely location and very spacious. The bedrooms were beautiful and the beds were so comfortable. Would love to stay here again.

Beautiful little cottage has everything you need to feel right at home. It has a well equipped kitchen and comfortable living area. The bedroom is relaxing and bed is very comfortable. Very quiet and peaceful. Chris and janet have put lots of local information in the cottage to help make the most of your stay. Only draw back is there is no shop in fortingall, so your nearest shop is in Aberfeldy 7miles away ( not a big deal for us as we were out most of the day). We would highly recommend a visit to the owl house. Many thanks for hosting us. We might see you again when we come back to climb meall nan tarmachan at some point x

Lovely, picturesque, peaceful location and amazing property with everything you need for your stay. We had a wonderful few days here and would highly recommend this place.

We had a wonderful time at Alison’s place and Alison was so lovely and informative, letting us know all the good walks and things to do nearby! We can’t wait to come back to this peaceful gem in the trossachs and loved how close Nether Glenny is to Aberfoyle if we did need anything! Fantastic stay and host, can’t recommend enough! :)

Charmant cottage décoré avec goût très propre et spacieux Il est super équipé C’est très agréable d’y séjourner Très bien placer pour les visites Même un petit jardin quand il fait bon Kelly est très sympathique A recommander fortement

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful part of the World. Great views from the bedroom windows overlooking the fields to the sea. The Cottage was warm, cosy and welcoming (especially in the cold wet weather we had when we visited!) and was perfect for a family of five adults. Loved seeing the donkey in the field next door. Loved even more that Mairead had kindly left tea, coffee, milk and sugar as well as a lovely gift basket too. It was truly appreciated. Wish we could have stayed longer!

We had a lovely stay at The Still. It’s surprisingly spacious, and we felt right at home. The surrounding area is beautiful and peaceful, and just a stones throw from Aberfeldy. Bec was very proactive with communication, everything was so easy!

Fiona is a super hote, she is super kind and reactive, her dogs are super cute, she gave us a lot of informations about the area. The cottage is super cozy. Thanks again for letting us stay !

The house was beautiful and the direct access to the beach was a lovely bonus. The village has a great, dog friendly, pub and cafe which was perfect for us.

we arrived at the cottage a little later than check in. The first thing that stood out for us was just how cozy the place was as the photos do not do it justice. Seonaid was communicative throughout our stay however we unfortunately never got the chance to meet her as we were out and about enjoying the amazing surroundings the area has to offer. The cottage is in an ideal location for exploring the whole of Ardnamurchan. we enjoyed our evening's relaxing by the fire for there was plenty of fuel available on site at no extra cost. The bed was very comfy and the kitchen area is well equipped to cook. Perfect for for self catering as food and restaurant's are limited in this area. however can be found if you are willing to travel. Near to the cottage is the river Shiel ..... There is a bench just a five minute walk away where you can sit and enjoy the sounds of nature. we will hopefully return in the future.

A peaceful get-away in a secluded and beautifully decorated cabin with lots of attention to detail, set in a lovely area to explore. There are some wonderful places nearby to visit, in particular St Kilbride Bay which is outstandingly beautiful. We had it to ourselves the afternoon we were there and even managed to see it in the sunshine. We also very much enjoyed our trip to Bute and had excellent Tapas at Tide & Thyme in Kames. We very much appreciated Heather’s friendliness and recommendations.

Great cottage on a working farm. Even Billy the dog and the other farm animals made us feel welcome. Not to forget the friendly hosts !
