It really is a sight to behold watching the sun set on Loch Earn. For the more wild campers there is a secluded spot on the grounds where you can roast your marshmallows on the camp fire whilst listening to long tales, hooting of owls and if your lucky enough rutting stags!

To the rear of the property is an open ended store/car port where you can park 2 vehicles under cover, 2 more clothes pulley's (great area for hanging those wet suits after a day on the Loch) The firewood and kindling are also in this area, please help yourself!

Glorious views
We were thrilled when we arrived at the property, it was everything we had imagined, there were wonderful views of Loch Earn and the mountains behind. We hiked to the top of Ben Vorlich and my intrepid daughter even swam in the loch! The bedrooms were spacious, the kitchen enormous and we loved the dining room. The playroom with its' train set and rocking horse was a huge hit with my little grandson. We would love to come again for another family reunion!

Great property in a great location!
Great location if you want to be able to travel in every direction to sight see. Not only that, but being able to just walk from the property on the days you want to just ramble is great. We took our dog (XL Breed) and the garden was properly enclosed and safe for him to run around. Lovely house inside, clean, tidy and well stocked with firewood. Kids and in-laws alike loved the trip, including spending evenings around the firepit telling stories! We have said we would absolutely come back again!

Fantastic house in a perfect location
For a combination of space, equipment, comfort, views and beauty of surroundings, this house is difficult to beat. A wonderfully comfortable living room (with an oft-used wood burner, the log supply being much appreciated), well-equipped kitchen and utility room, formal and informal options both for eating and for relaxing, great outdoor provision for cars and bikes, a fantastic garden and arresting views fuel the overriding, highly favourable impression. On the downside, the fixtures and fittings are typically ‘Highland rental’ and don’t really do justice to the grandeur of the building - mis-matched furniture in a bedroom, old Lino bubbling-up on the floor of the shower room, the single beds in one of the rooms declared uncomfortable by young teenage boys that can sleep anywhere and only some of the pictures adorning the walls being of its place, the rest looking like a motley collection from a boot sale. I make this observation less to criticise than from a wish that a little more attention would be paid to this house because it could be truly magnificent, even sumptuous. We were two families that holiday together in Scotland every year and, up against some stiff competition, we agreed that this is the best house we’ve stayed in. We’re already discussing a return, provided we’ll be allowed back after this review!

Lovely homely feel
This house was lovely, would recommend it to anyone who doesn't mind been one with the country side. Easy access to main routes for days out and would highly recommend Highland safari's for all ages. Only down side is it states its a dog friendly house but then on arrival we found they where only allowed in the kitchen.

Great for a family holiday
We stayed here with another family - 3 kids and 4 adults. There was loads of space - particularly liked the large kitchen and the playroom. The bedrooms were all big, and all upstairs which was good with smaller children. Handy to have the old railway path to walk on really close to the house, and it's in a beautiful part of country so loads to do nearby.

Fantastic holiday!
We have just returned from a wonderful week at Ardveich House. A beautiful house, well equipped, clean, tidy and spacious, and in such a beautiful area. The fire pit in the garden was a big hit with the big and little kids for toasting marshmallows. We even saw an eagle fly over from the garden. We had a teensy problem with the water, which was fixed within about 15 minutes of calling Elizabeth. Superb stay from a fabulous host. Hope we can return one day soon. Many thanks for a delightful and memorable holiday.

Lovely few days break in a beautiful house and location
We had a great break at the house. There was 8 of us, 4 adults and 4 children. We he house exceeded our expectations. It was spacious, clean and the views are magnificent. The area has lots to do and us great for exploring central Scotland. We loved the fire at night time. Communication with the host was excellent, this was a last minute find 2 days before due to arranged property cancelling because of Covid 19. It certainly did not disappoint. Would love to go back one day.

Wunderschönes Ferienhaus in Schottland
Das Haus ist sehr schön und geräumig sowie sehr liebevoll eingerichtet. Das Haus ist abseits gelegen, aber Supermärkte sind mit dem Auto gut zu erreichen. Der Ausblick vom Haus und der Garten sind wunderschön.
