Moorend
Callander, by Stirling |
|
Moorend is set on a beautiful private estate very much in the heart of Scotland. Edinburgh, Glasgow, Stirling and Perth are all within easy reach and on the doorstep are the Trossachs. Sometimes described as the Highlands in miniature, this fabulous landscape of lochs, forest and hills surrounds the house. This cosy home from home is within stunning and sheltered countryside of ever changing scenery and colour.
The popular town of Callander is only 6 miles away and has so much to offer. Stirling, 22 miles, has all the shops and services of a major town as well as an historic and dramatic castle and the Wallace Monument. There is a great golf course at Drymen only 20 miles away but if golf is your passion there are a whole host of courses to choose from in the surrounding area and if you wanted to travel further a field there are the famous Championship courses of Gleneagles and St Andrews.
There is loch fishing available on the estate, wonderful opportunities for bird watching and loch swimming if you fancy it: also plenty of walking and the chance to totally relax - an in-house speciality! This is an idyllic place to stay in the Trossachs and Loch Lomond National Park - one of the most beautiful parts of Scotland.
