"A delightful, very well maintained cottage in the grounds of a family Estate."
All the essentials provided. A nice, south facing secluded seating area to the side of the cottage for relaxing. The perfect retreat.

"Had a fabulous week at Maisie’s Cottage."
The owners were lovely and the estate surrounding it is beautiful. The cottage itself is very quaint and homely. A little gem. Excellent walks on the doorstep and there are shops just up the road in Dunblane. Stirling is a short drive away and has loads to see and do.

"What a charming wee cottage!"
We thoroughly enjoyed our break here. Beautiful cottage, well equipped and in such an amazing location! If you want peace and quiet, this is the place for you. If you want to explore a beautiful part of Scotland, this is also the place for you! If you want to eat well, then this is the place for you too! Patrick, Susan and Lucinda( and Truffles) were lovely hosts, popping in to say hi and making sure we had everything we needed. The cottage is just so lovely and the wildlife round about is amazing! Could sit and listen to all the different bird sounds for hours! There are many places of interest to visit and the nearby towns of Dunblane and Bridge of Allan are lovely to wander around. Treat yourself at Gleneagles or Cromlix! The afternoon tea at Cromlix is the best ever and we even met Judy Murray which was lovely!
Yes, yet again Sykes have come up with a fabulous property. This is our 6th Sykes stay and they have all been fantastic. Thank you!

"Wonderful place, very central for visiting any places (or family)."
We were welcomed by the owners (and doggy) in such a friendly way. Immediately a feel-at-home property that made us want to stay forever! Everything was available and all top quality. The beautiful accommodation was in perfect order. The property gives the feeling of being in the middle of 'nowhere' but with easy connection to villages, towns and more. I'd say this is an outstanding site and well worth a visit. (I just hope that not too many people read this and take up all the available weeks for their holiday, so there will be some left for us next time we can come over for a visit!)

"Maisie's Cottage is a lovely, cosy cottage which sits deep within the beautiful Kippenross estate."
Very peaceful & relaxing location surrounded by huge trees with the picturesque River Allan running nearby. We visited Stirling (6 miles away) which has an amazing castle & the Old Town Jail with a terrific actor who brought the jail visit to life. We did a walking tour of Stirling old town which was super interesting.
Also would recommend a visit to Glasgow which was an easy train ride (40 mins) from Dunblane station. Outside the Queen St station, Glasgow, jump on the Hop On Hop Off sighting seeing bus. You can ride all day & jump off at the various spots on route & then jump back on.

Surroundings stunning, cottage immaculate, everything you need for a great getaway.
If you love history, you'll love Maisie's Cottage
and Kippenross.
What lovely, helpful hosts as well....made you feel very welcome but discreet at the same time.
We really didn't want to leave and I thought about taking up Squatters Rights in order to stay but it just felt wrong.
Can't believe how lucky we were finding it.

The cottage provides great privacy with plenty of room for everything. They have thought of it all! Right down to the final touches (fresh flowers). The cottage was clean, comfortable and set in a beautiful location just south of Dunblane and a few minutes drive to Stirling which has all the shops/food places you need. The walks around the groud were truly breathtaking.
Just a 15 min walk to the train station which have great train links into Edinburgh/Glasgow. We highly recommend this place to stay! 10/10

"Maisie's cottage is exactly as described on the site."
A great getaway for a tranquil holiday set within beautiful surroundings but also an accessible distance for many tourist attractions and half an hour from Glasgow and an hour from Edinburgh. The owners are very welcoming and accommodating. The cottage itself has everything you need, the reason I have given 4 out of 5 for comfort is that the bed is not as comfotable as our own - personal preference - and that the spiral staircase, as described in the advert, is not as easy to use as straight stairs. Two minor points that didn't detract from our wonderful stay. Thank you for making us so welcome.

"Excellent accommodation in a lovely setting."
This was a late booking made just before Christmas and the communication from the owners was excellent. Friendly hosts and a very well equipped cottage. Lots of space, good wi-fi, and well heated. Close enough to Dunblane to walk in, but far enough out to feel isolated. There are lots of lovely walks around the estate and the cottage is well located for more adventurous excursions!

"What a find this place is."
Nestled on a beautiful estate, it feels like it is in the middle of nowhere and yet it is within walking distance of Dunblane and a short drive to Stirling. Hosts Susan, Patrick, Lucinda, and their pooch, were a delight, and only too willing to help if I had any questions, like where to go walking in the local area. The cottage has been really lovingly set up and I was really able to relax during my stay. I will certainly go again as there is so much to see and do in and around the area and slightly further afield. What an adventure I had as storm Arwen hit while I was staying there and trees came down. It was lovely to be able to help Malcolm, the tree surgeon and other people from the estate, to help clear them.
