"No wild life at all over looked on three sides from houses"
We are sorry that you felt that you had to mark our cabin down. We try very hard to make the cabin comfortable for our guests and take on board specific comments and feedback and act on it where we can. Two sides being overlooked would be our garden (the house, apart from the roof, is out of sight and our neighbour's garden). At the back there are houses but there is a tall bank of conifers blocking the cabin from being directly overlooked. So far as facilities and maintenance are concerned, well, each to their own. When we asked you during your holiday if everything was alright, you confirmed that it was. One of you also left the log burner door open and added to the singes in the carpet (between the log burner and the door). Fortunately, the vast majority of our guests disagree with your low scoring of facilities and maintenance. Please see the previous one as an example. Property Owner

"This property is in a fabulous location, in fact probably one of the best we've stopped in for surrounding scenery."
The Dockhart Falls can be seen from the front room windows, as well as red squirrels ( although I think these were hiding during our stay
Thanks Keith. Your comments are much appreciated and we're sorry that the red squirrels didn't make their up to that end of the garden. Mike & Jan Property Owner

"Lovely property very peaceful first class owners showed and explained everything ..."

Thank you for your comments and we're pleased that you found it peaceful. Property Owner

"In the booking it said there was no wi fi, but when we got to the cottage we had it."
The cottage is situated in a peaceful location, next to the falls. It is in a good place to get around to the kelpies and loch Lommond. The pub over the bridge does pub grub and the Courie restaurant down the road is excellent, you do have to book both of those. The cottage has everything that you need for a peaceful week away.
Thank you for your kind comments Alan. To clear up the wi fi question, there is no wi fi connection to the cabin although, depending on your provider, you may well be able to access wi fi using your own data. We were keen to make sure that guests weren't expecting there to be wi fi avialable. We also apologise for the lack of a hair dryer. There certainly was one (it was PAT tested recently) so we think that some recent guests must have mistakenly taken it with them. Property Owner

"Thank you Mike and Jan for a wonderful holiday, so much so we booked the same week for next year whilst we were there."
Perfect setting in the village, close enough to village life but secluded enough feel away from it. See you next year.
Thanks Martin We're looking forward to seeing you both again next May. Property Owner

"We had a great week at Millmore Cabin."
The cabin is very comfortable and well situated with wonderful views, spacious surroundings and very convenient for local amenities. Jan and Mike were wonderful host and were very helpful when we had a problem with our photo equipment. We would highly recommend the cabin to anyone looking for a holiday accommodation in this area.
Thank you Eileen & Herb. We hope that you had a magnificent second week in the north and got some stunning photos of the Northern Lights. Jan & Mike Property Owner

"We have just spent a lovely week staying in this very comfortable well equipped cosy holiday cabin with our 2 dogs."
Killin is ideal location for walking. There are plenty of eateries to choose from and a handy coop. The owners are very friendly and helpful and we will definitely be back for another visit.
Thank you Anne, we're very pleased that you enjoyed our cabin. Jan & Mike Property Owner

"Spent a lovely week at Millmore Cabin."
Just what we needed. Owners (Mike and Jan) were very welcoming. Lots of walks for the dog and really well placed for exploring the area. Shops and restaurants and pubs in the immediate area very nice. With also the Co-op a short walk away. Every thing we needed. Lovely site being on the Falls. Would return.
We are very pleased that you enjoyed our cabin. Even the weather behaved for you! Thank you for your lovely feedback. Jan & Mike Property Owner

"The first thing to say about the cabin is, wow, the location."
Absolutely stunning, so close to the river and the falls. They aren't joking when they say the river runs by the back garden. Sitting by the patio doors watching and listening to the river was heaven. The hosts are very welcoming, lots of info available about local walks and on hand if you need anything. The welcome gift was lovely. The cabin is quite spacious and very cosy with the log burner. Has everything you could need.
Thank you Laura. We're glad that you enjoyed your few days with us even if the weather was less than welcoming! The one big advantage of rain is that it does make the falls even more spectacular. Mike & Jan Property Owner

Thank you very much for your kind comments. Thanks also for the suggestions - these were acted on immediately. Property Owner

"We did have a lovely time at Milmore."
The cabin itself is set a little back from the owners property so no one feels intruded upon, which is lovely. The cabin itself was comfortable and roomy for the two of us and our two biggish dogs. The garden was brilliant, we all loved it. The end of the garden is literally on the Falls of Dochart, and you can see the Dochart River from the living room. Even though it was quite chilly I did spend an amount of time on the verandah drinking a coffee and just taking in the natural sounds. The kitchen was a little small for us, but reality was we were not cooking, eating out. Best place to eat out in order of quality and service, Courie Inn, Killin Hotel, Falls of Dochart Inn and Capercaillie. By the way the Falls of Dochart Inn does a doggie food bowl, chicken, venison and veg in the one we had for our dogs. They loved it! A bit of a novelty. The Courie Inn was exceptional. Wish we had that as our local. Some really nice walks from the Cabin. Mike and Jan, the hosts, met us and introduced us to the cabin, and were there if we needed. Thanks for the hosepipe! It was needed.
Thank you for your kind words and guide to the local hostelries! Property Owner

"We stayed at Millmore Cottage from 02/09/23-09/09/23, and had a great time there."
Although some of the interior is quite dated, the cottage itself is spacious and very comfortable and set in beautiful grounds. It is within easy walking distance into Killin itself and we found plenty of walks nearby to take our dog Rosie on. Finally Mike and Jan the owners are very friendly and helpful. I would thoroughly recommend Millmore Cottage as a place to stay.
Thank you for kind comments and we're glad that you enjoyed your stay. Even the weather behaved itself! Jan & Mike Property Owner

"We really enjoyed our holiday at Millmore cabin , we were so comfortable and very cosy there."
The view from the sitting room window of The Falls of Dochart was spectacular,could have watched it all day. The owners Mike & Jan were lovely had a couple of nice chats with them but they left us just to get on and enjoy our break . Would recommend this cabin to anyone for a nice quiet break away from it all.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We're very pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. Happy travels in your motor home.....Mike & Jan Property Owner

"Mike and Jan were really friendly and helpful and were available if any issues arose."
The lodge was comfortable and cozy and the beds were clean and comfy too. The setting beside the Falls of Dochart was beautiful and very peaceful and it's a great place to explore the Southern Scottish Highlands from. Our two wee dogs loved it too and there were plenty of places to walk them. Lots of dog friendly eateries too, especially the Falls of Dochart Inn across the bridge which serves yummy food! All in all we had a really enjoyable week there! Thanks Mike and Jan!
You're most welcome! We're glad that you and the Shelties enjoyed your week and thank you for your kind comments. Property Owner

"We had a fabulous time at Millmore Cabin for a few days between Christmas and New Year."
The cabin is cosy in a brilliant location with country walks, pubs and a food shop all within walking distance. We enjoyed walks to Loch Tay, in the local woodland and Dochart Falls are on the doorstep. We also enjoyed food at the Falls of Dochart Inn. Mike and Jan are really welcoming and helpful and even got up super early in our departure day to help us out in the snow - very much over and above! They were very helpful with suggestions of local walks etc but not at all intrusive. The cabin is super warm and cosy with all the comforts you could need and the log burner to relax in front after a walk was bliss! I can’t recommend Millmore Cabin highly enough and I hope we will return one day.
Thank you for your kind review and we're glad that you enjoyed your few days, even with the snow and ice making conditions more challenging than usual. We hope to see you again. Happy New Year! Jan & Mike Property Owner

"Lovely snug property, with wonderful views in an excellent location."
We hardly used our car all week, but we're still able to do a variety walks across a mix or terrain. Very useful porch for / lobby for drying people / hounds and hanging walking gear etc. I was a bit concerned about it being a cabin before we went as I was anticipating bad weather and due to it not being a "house" thought we may get chilly. I was right about the weather, wrong about the cabin. We were very cosy and comfortable. The location also gives a brilliant mix of being peaceful and secluded, whilst not being "cut off". We were able to walk to a decent sized shop easily and also never lost our 'phone signal - which we needed on this occasion. The owners made both ourselves and our hounds very welcome - just the right level of contact. Excellent introduction to the cabin and then left us to it - however we were very comfortable that had there been an issue they would have been there. All in all a lovely holiday and the property was excellent value for money - we hope to go back.
Thank you very much for your comments, they are much appreciated. Although it did rain more than might have been expected, hopefully the impressiveness of the falls in full flow made up a little bit for this. Property Owner

"A lovely peaceful cabin in a beautiful setting."
Thank you. It was lovely to see you back again. Jan & Mike Property Owner

"We really enjoyed our stay at Millmore Cabin Mike and Jan were so welcoming and made our holiday for us."
The Cabin is in a quiet location but there are facilities within a stones throw we enjoyed watching the red squirrels and the skies were beautiful. We enjoyed trips to Inverary, Glen Garrie where we saw Eagles, Blair Atholl Castle, Glamis Castle and Loch Tay was a favourite picnic spot. Really, I should say it was awful but I'd be lying. We loved it and already planning a return visit.
Thank you for your kind comments. We thoroughly enjoyed having you (and the dogs ) as guests. We look forward to welcoming you back, hopefully in the not too distant future. Jan & Mike Property Owner

"Enjoyed a fantastic week at Millmore cabin, hosts Mike and Jan very welcoming and helpful but not overbearing."
My dogs absolutely loved the garden and the cabin had everything anyone would need to enjoy a great holiday. We will definately be back.
We're delighted that you enjoyed your week with us. Thank you very much for your generous feedback.....Jan & Mike Property Owner

"Thank you Mike and Jan for being so welcoming - what a beautiful location!"
We had a fantastic holiday in stunning surroundings with unbelievably hot weather. Lovely view and sound of the falls from the garden and also had an unexpected visit by a red squirrel. Overall a brilliant week - missing it already. Thanks again.
We're so pleased that you enjoyed yourselves and that the red squirrel put in an appearance. Thank you very much for your kind comments.....Jan & Mike Property Owner

"The cabin is such a beautiful little find , right on top of the falls of dochart , such a lovely big well maintained garden for the dogs to wander safely ."
Mike and Jan were lovely hosts . We had a lovely stay and look forward to returning one day soon .
We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you (and the dogs of course) in the future. Property Owner

"Had a nice relaxing stay at this cabin."
pleasant surroundings and having decent weather helped. Hosts were accommodating and friendly. only drawback was lack of a washing machine. all else was okay/
We're glad that you had a relaxing stay. Unfortunately the gallery kitchen in the cabin just isn't large enough to accommodate a washing machine. We did have some correspondence about this prior to your stay and thought that we had reached a solution. Property Owner

"We had a truly fantastic week at Millmore cabin."
The view from the living room patio window to the river is just lovely and there is plenty of nature in the garden to enjoy. The cabin has everything you need for your stay with lots of recommendations for things to do in the local area. Mike and Jan were very welcoming and happy to help with anything but respected privacy at the same time. The local area is beautiful with lots of wonderful walks and bike rides on the doorstep. We have no hesitation in recommending Millmore cabin and we will consider a stay again in the future. Thanks again for a wonderful week.
We're delighted that you enjoyed your week at Millmore. Property Owner

"Great place, in a great spot."
Mike and Jan were fab hosts.

"Millmore cabin was just perfect!"
I was welcomed by Mike and Jan, who were really lovely hosts, available if needed, but gave complete privacy. The cabin was really comfortable and cosy in February, and had everything I needed for a self catering stay. There's no WiFi but I always had a phone signal (3 network) for streaming music, sending messages etc. The garden grounds are beautiful, with the river running along the bottom of the garden. You even have a great view of the river from the living room, which is very relaxing. Killin and the surrounding villages are great to explore, and Mike and Jan have prepared a really comprehensive list of lots things to see and do in the area. A wonderful relaxing trip, I would certainly recommend Millmore cabin.
Thank you very much Amber. We're so pleased that you enjoyed Millmore cabin. And thank you for leaving the cabin absolutely spotless, it was much appreciated! Hopefully we'll see you again....Mike & Jan Property Owner

"We had a fantastic long weekend stay at the cabin."
Mike and Jan were very welcoming and helping on arrival but left us to our own devices for the rest of our stay - perfect hospitality! Although the weather was rubbish, the cabin was very cosy and we loved sitting in the living room with the fire on, dog happy and the sound of the falls. Would highly recommend!
Thank you. Jan & I are pleased that you enjoyed the cabin. Work is now underway to put in new electric radiators so that the heating will be a lot more controllable. Property Owner

"A lovely, cosy and warm log cabin with a well equipped galley kitchen."
The garden was in a beautiful spot with a wonderful view of the falls. You can expect a warm welcome, highly recommended.
Thank you for your kind comments. The garden has suffered a little bit thanks to the storms, although this has not detracted from the view of the falls. Property Owner
-
"This was in an idyllic setting on the Falls of Dochart."
The owners of the cabin were very friendly and went out of their way to help us. Although the cabin is quite old fashioned this only added to its charm. Fantastic for dog walks and we were able to spend days without getting in the car. Anyone looking for peace and quiet (apart from the roar of water over the falls) this is an ideal spot.
Thank you for this. Jan & I are so pleased that you enjoyed our cabin. Property Owner

"Here are people wanting to switch off, there are people wanting to have home from home, there are people looking to feel happy and comfortable at the centre of things yet away from bustle."
There are people who dream and hope this new destination for them is exactly for them. There are watchers, waiters, wanderers and wonderers. This place, this space in Killin ticks boxes all the way from sunrise to nod-off time. Its a place that's so good you just wonder why you aren't living there all the time .. and so then why travel to have a holiday! I could live there and be happy just watching the water tumbling over those rocks!

"I can honestly say that the people themselves were lovely , but for a family to go there for the amount they were charging was ridiculous."
The cleanliness itself was very poor. I brought my own coffee as I’m very picky , well thank the lord I did , as there wasn’t enough as a bottle off water in the cabin to greet us. My husband had to clean everything in the cabin before use. I wanted to say something at the time but my husband asked me not to as he was craving for this holiday as like us all we need it in these terrible times we are living in. I can honestly say tho for where it was situated felt like heaven. I actually saw a red squirrel
We are sorry that Mr & Mrs Cullen were not happy and felt the need to score us so low. This is our first season with Sykes Cottages. The price charging has been determined by the Sykes Cottages pricing team. They are the experts in this field and they are, after all, managing the holiday let on our behalf.On the point of not having provided coffee or even being a bottle of water in the fridge, this is because we are not permitted to provide anything like this under the Covid restrictions. Equally, we had to remove all cushions, books (except for the property handbook), DVDs, toys etc. Rest assured, once the restrictions are eased, we intend to provide a welcome pack for all guests.On the point of cleanliness, we use a firm of cleaners. You will note from other reviews that cleanliness has not been an issue in the past. Mrs Cullen's comments have been passed on to the cleaning firm. We understand that it has been a very difficult seventeen months and we want our guests to enjoy the peace and quiet, the wildlife and the view of the Falls of Dochart that Millmore Cabin provides. This is why we ask all our guests to let us know if there is anything that they need when they arrive. An issue with the cleanliness would have been straightforward to deal with at the time, as would explaining about the lack of coffee and bottled water.' Property Owner

"Absolutely fantastic log cabin that we got for a great price, gorgeous location and very friendly locals with great restaurants with lovely food for the family, almost everything was dog friendly also which was great, the family loved the time away here for a week would definitely return next year, the owners of the lodge where extremely helpful and polite and couldn't be nicer highly recommended for anyone looking for a fantastic holiday away from city life."

From here, head into the cosy living room, which offers one sofa and two armchairs to relax in.
There is a woodburning stove that will fill the room with heat on the chillier evenings.
A sliding door opens onto the patio and adjoining decking giving spectacular views of the River Dochart that flows by at the edge of the lawn.
From here you can enjoy sitting on the patio or decking with a glass of wine and spot the local wildlife, including red squirrel, heron, otter, pine marten, woodpecker as well as some of the local ducks.
The wood panelled walls of the dining room and galley kitchen give the space an authentic feel, and the dining table is a great place to gather together to enjoy a home-cooked meal together.
The property is well placed in the centre of the village, with a host of amenities, restaurants, pubs and cafés just a short walk away, as well as notable attractions like the magnificent waterfall of the Falls Of Dochart, Clan McNabb Burial Grounds and the Dochart Viaduct.

Millmore Cabin is a fantastic base to return to after a day of exploration and adventure.

About the location
KILLIN
Aberfeldy 22 miles; Pitlochry 36 miles; Perth 44 miles.
The village of Killin, on the edge of the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park, in the area of Breadalbane, sits across the stunning Falls of Dochart and has been settled since ancient times. Cup markings on rocks and stone circles tell of an ancient race that inhabited this area. Christianity came to Breadalbane in the 8th century with St Fillan with the Mill bearing his name and St Fillan’s Day held on the 3rd Tuesday in January. The village is strongly associated with two renowned clans, Clan Campbell and Clan MacNab. Finlarig Castle, to the north of the village, was the Campbell stronghold and the MacNabs have their ancient burial ground of Inchbuie near the bridge over the falls. Killin today is a popular tourist destination, due in no small part to the use of the falls in various films and television programmes. The village today has a varied selection of shops, bars and restaurants and watersports are available on nearby Loch Tay. Ideal for walking, Killin has Ben Lawers, the highest of the surrounding Bens, to the north and Ben More and Stobinian to the west.
