Family Vacation to Scotland
The house was magnificent and the grounds and gardens were beautiful. So much more than we expected. If you are visiting Scotland this is the perfect location. Brenda, the home owner was so nice and went above and beyond.

Fantastic house in a fantastic location
Our stay was brilliant. The location enabled our first time visitors to Scotland to explore many of the sights they had heard of for many years. Storm Eowyn tried to disrupt our stay but Jimmy and Brenda quickly supplied a generator and made sure we had power when it went off. Would definitely go back again.

Great house, great stay.
Absolutely wonderful experience! My family and I traveled from Washington State and were thrilled to stay at this incredible property in Scotland. From the moment we arrived, the hosts made us feel welcomed, going above and beyond to make sure we felt at home. They truly thought of everything, and the property was well equipped with all the amenities we could need and more. The location was perfect—centrally located, yet private and peaceful, giving us a sanctuary to unwind after long days of exploring. We couldn’t have asked for a better base to see the sights. The comfort and beauty of the house made it feel like our own Scottish home away from home, and we felt relaxed and recharged every time we returned. A heartfelt thanks to our hosts for making this such a memorable trip. We can’t recommend this place enough and would absolutely stay here again!

Wonderful stay in beautiful house
We had a wonderful stay. The house is very spacious and beautiful and has everything you could ever ask for and more. The youngsters enjoyed the gaming room very much. The location is perfect to visit the most popular places in Scotland. Even the weather was good (not too hot or cold), only rain at night or when we were inside and even a few sunny days. The communication with Brenda and Jim was also very nice : they asked if everything was in order, they were nearby if necessary but they respected our privacy also. A house to be recommended.

A perfect holiday home
Unfortunately my wife had an accident a few days before departure so we could not travel and only my daughter, her children and her life partner had the pleasure to stay at Burnside House. At least we could see many photos from the place and the beautiful surroundings. My family really enjoyed their stay there and said in the house everything hast been nicely prepared. Of course we try another attempt in the future in order to get to Burnside House as soon as possible!

Beautiful home in a beautiful setting
We had an amazing time in Scotland and loved this property. The amount of space for our party of 6 was perfect and there are so many things to do. The hosts had great communication and the little touches in the home made us feel welcome. The hosts provide so many wonderful amenities that we felt pampered. We will be sure to return. Thanks so much

Great place for every day trips in Scotland
The house is very nice and it has more then enough space for 8 people. Cause of it's location in Stirling district it's an ideal "base" for trips to Edinburgh, Glasgow, the Highlands or Speyside. The local distillery of Deanston is just a 5 minutes walk away.

Big house
Pictures don’t do the house justice. It was much bigger than expected. Plenty of room for everyone which also allowed for privacy. There was nothing that I wanted or needed that wasn’t available. Loved it for precious family time. Host was very good and available if needed.

Outstanding. Everything you need, lots of thoughtful extras. We loved the games room and the big table to sit around to eat altogether. Rooms were clean and comfortable and there was so much space in the house to spread yourself around. Thank you so much to Brenda and Jim for all your help especially with the locking the car keys in the car. We would like to come back

Highlife in the Highlands
Best holiday accommodation we've ever had. The feeling of space for extended family was perfect. So many activities such as a pool table, table tennis, play station etc Brenda and Jim are lovely hosts. On hand if ever we needed help with anything while completely respecting our privacy. The area has so many historical and natural attractions. We had a lovely boat ride on Loch Lomond. Also seen the Royal Yacht Britiannia, which was amazing. Can also recommend The Woodside in Doune for food. Absolutely delicious. All in all, a perfect holiday. Thanks again Brenda and Jim.

Absolut amazing! The best ever!
The best house ever, so nice, sooooo big, so wonderful! The hole family was flashed, everything was perfect. We werde really relaxed and happy in this very big house and very big garden. Great service: after one week changing towels and lines. The neighbarhood and the nights were quiet, we slept so well. And the landscape around is really wonderful. Jim and Brenda, thank you very much for this wonderful holiday, a perfect holiday.

Radical Home!
It was our first time in Scotland and the house was so welcoming we were tempted to cancel sight seeing just to enjoy the comfort and game room! The location was ideal! We did 5 day trips and different directions and saw so much of the country thanks to the central location. Hosts were perfectly non-intrusive but available for needs and everyone loved having a dedicated bedroom AND bathroom! Such a radical home, I’d come back in a heart beat!!

Scotish Heaven
The home is amazing. Incredibly well designed and built. Everything functioned perfectly. The spaces both indoor and out are beutifully finished. Brenda and Jim, were gracious and easy to work with. They were responsive to any inquiry. Doune is small but has a couple of greay things to do. We recommend Doune Castle, the tour is very unique. It was the setting for Monty Python's Holy Grail and the series Outlander. Deanston Distillery is not a marque name, but the people and the cafe make it a great experience. If you and your family need a base of operations centrally located in Scotland you will be hard pressed to do better than Burnside House. We would never hesitate to stay there again. Our family prefered this home to the $9M Log Home we stayed in Montana last year.
