Located in the prestigious Kings Park area of Stirling and occupying the entire ground floor of a sandstone period villa, this smart apartment is ticking all our boxes. A great option for friends or family sharing, the generous Victorian-era proportions of the bedrooms really show here, and there’s heaps of space to spill out in the free-flowing living and dining set-up, which leads outside onto a private patio with leafy green views. Location-wise, there’s plenty to explore on foot in and around Striling – starting with the mighty castle. Here to explore other central Scotland hotspots? Gillies Hill, the Trossachs and Edinburgh are all an easy drive away.

Looking for a practical base to explore central Scotland? This modern apartment in the village of Cambusbarron offers just that. Set within a historic mill conversion – once the largest in Scotland – it makes a striking first impression. Inside, the modern interiors might feel a little characterless for some, but they’re bright, spotless, and designed for easy living. When you’re ready to explore, the village shops, cafes, and a pub are within a five-minute walk, while ample private parking makes day trips a breeze. Take your pick from Stirling Castle, Gillies Hill, the Trossachs or further afield to Edinburgh – you’re well placed for all the must-see sights.

Don’t let the quaint stone exteriors of this cottage, set just a ten-minute drive from Stirling, fool you – inside, it’s a surprisingly spacious home. A practical choice for multi-generational family stay, bedrooms are split across two floors, and each comes with its own bathroom. While the traditional interiors aren’t anything to write home about, the setting surely is. From the private enclosed garden, admire sweeping Highland views, or set off on walking trails leading to the Ochil Hills. Ready for a dose of local life? The welcoming pubs of nearby Gargunnock are within walking distance for an evening of Ceilidh song and cheer – just like you imagined.

Nice to haves

What could be better than spotting red squirrels, lapwings, house martins and geese in your private garden? Well, spotting them from the bubbling warmth of a hot tub for one. This 18th century home sits in glorious Perthshire countryside in the hamlet of Monzie. It’s a seven-minute drive to the nearest shops, pubs and coffee shops in idyllic Crieff. The surrounding countryside is home to winding walks (some from your doorstep) where you can spot deer and red kites, cycling trails, fishing and golfing. Though you may just want to stay in your secluded country paradise, playing croquet on the lawn, soaking in the hot tub or enjoying a barbecue in the sun. Inside, you’ll find several spots for the group to spread out – curled up with a book in the sunny conservatory, perched by the crackling fire in the main lounge, playing table football in the games room or perhaps even tinkling a tune on the upright piano in the dining room. The kitchen is the heart of the home, where a four-door Aga purrs with endless warmth. Homely touches like kids’ drawings framed on the wall and a selection of books and board games elevate this spot beyond your average holiday home.

Rising above Loch Lomond like a dazzling glass mirage, this extraordinary home is truly one of a kind. Floor-to-ceiling glass windows and bi-folding doors dominate its front, offering unobstructed views of the Loch and its stunning surroundings. With its own private miniature beach, this truly is a Highlands haven. Inside, the contemporary and vintage-inspired decor makes the light-filled living space feel elegant while the rustic antler chandeliers and leather sofas lend warmth and cosiness to make you feel right at home. Spend your mornings reading on the Loch-facing deck or enjoy a morning coffee from the sumptuous sofa while watching the sun come up over the water. Then, book yourself some relaxing and restorative treatments at the nearby spa or head over to one of the many nearby golf courses for some fresh air fun. After a day of activities and exploring, come back for a soak in the eight-person hot tub before curling up in the plush bedrooms for a wonderfully peaceful night’s sleep.

Tailor-made for two, this tranquil cottage promises a romantic retreat and true escape from it all. Set on an estate, you can wander the landscaped grounds at your leisure. Feeling a little more adventurous? Hire an e-mountain bike and take to the estate’s twenty kilometres of trails or head out to hike the Pentland Hills, instead. Back home, the fireplace and rolltop bath are a warming sight after a day of exploring, but we think you’ll be tempted to relax outdoors on the private terrace. A cedar hot tub, outdoor fireplace, and nature surrounding you – what’s not to love?

Once the home to the estate’s Head Gardener, this Midlothian home is the perfect bolthole for a family on a back-to-nature retreat. We love the sense of history this home offers, along with all the modern touches you’d want for a relaxing stay. The cedar hot tub is sure to be a hit with all, while the outdoor fireplace is the ideal spot to unwind with a tipple to share tales from the day. With 3,100 hectares to explore, you’ll never be bored here – but if you fancy a change of scene, head to the Pentland Hills or hop in the car for a trip to Edinburgh, thirty minutes away.

From the sauna, hot tub and fire pit, to the cosy rooms and indulgent roll top bath, every detail has been considered to inspire optimum relaxation. There’s also plenty to explore in the surroundings with a beautiful wildflower meadow and hiking trails within easy reach. It’s also just a thirty-minute drive into the heart of Edinburgh.

Apart from the odd bleat of a sheep or moo of a coo, there’s not much else to disturb the peace at this spot in the Perthshire countryside. Fields stretch before you (check out the view from the balcony), yet it’s just three miles to the charming market town of Dunkeld to stock up on supplies and try the local cafes. It’s also a walker and mountain biker’s paradise around these parts – this home has heated bike storage and a boot room. The wood-burner in the living room can warm up frozen toes and the sleek kitchen is equipped with everything you need to fuel up, post-walk. Your host is in the neighbouring farmhouse should you need anything.

This splendidly restored Victorian house will whisk you away to another era. Designed by a prominent 19th-century Scottish architect, this place retains its original charm. We were stunned by the ornate plasterwork, massive fireplaces and antique furnishings. Wake up to a view of the shimmering waters of Loch Long and The River Clyde. Peek through the telescope in the lounge and see if you can spot the isle of Arran in the distance. Every care has been taken to make the place as kid-friendly as possible – from ensuring the sockets and fireplaces are covered to providing high-chairs and cribs. Your little ones will also find plenty of books, toys and a games console. You can sip a cuppa undistrubed, while the kids play make-believe in the grand rooms and sprawling garden. If you can tear yourself away, miles of stunning natural trails await you in nearby Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park. In the evening, stoke the logs in the fireplace, pour yourself a glass of fine Scotch whisky and make the most of your waterside abode.

Dating back to 1703, this former millhouse building has the charming appearance of a traditional country house, while the modern interiors and luxurious home comforts create an endlessly relaxing stay for large groups of friends or extended families looking to explore Edinburgh. Using the original raw materials of stone and wood to echo its heritage, and yet keeping things sleek and sophisticated with plenty of contemporary touches, the ground-floor sunroom is perhaps the best example of this beautifully balanced home. With glass on three sides of the room, you can enjoy the stunning garden view as natural light pours into this cosy hideaway. Pour yourself a wee dram from the characterful bar room with furniture, paintings and art objects hand-picked by the host herself, and head out and explore over 3.5 acres of the private gardens. Gather the troops for an alfresco lunch on the sun-dappled patio or for the ultimate R&R take a gentle soak in the swim spa hot tub – our favourite spot to sip bubbly. This can be the perfect place to fit in your morning exercise too – partake in an outdoor pilates class around the spa. In fact, whether you're looking to book a fitness session, an art class or a guided tour around Edinburgh Castle (less than a half-hour drive away), your host kindly takes care of everything, so you can enjoy a well-deserved break.

Breakfast Included

If it's good enough for Mary Queen Of Scots, then it's good enough for us. The iconic figure often stayed at this grand castle, taking advantage of the rural location and beautiful surroundings. Now, you can follow in her footsteps.

Feel like royalty in every room of this awe-inspiring building, each inch infused with historical significance. Rustic yet comfortable, the castle maintains its regal atmosphere whilst adding a layer of intimacy that puts you instantly at ease.

There are multiple rooms to discover, from the huge dining space to the cosy corners with chairs by the fire. The best part? You have the entirety all to yourself. After the host provides a tour and snippets of the history, you can explore each quaint crevice at your own leisure. Indulging in a royal feast in the dining room is a particular highlight. 

Such is the grandeur of the castle, we can understand why you'd never want to leave. But if you did want to stretch your legs, take a stroll along the beautiful River Tweed, leading to the charming town of Peebles. Here, you'll find welcoming pubs, a fascinating museum and premium restaurants.

Scots & Queens

If you’re seeking an escape back to nature that’s a perfect fit for two, it’s time to stop scrolling. We love this former Porters’ Lodge, packed full of character and inviting its guests to unwind. You’ll find this home set on an estate, where you can enjoy the landscaped grounds at your leisure – if you’re not too busy relaxing in your private cedar hot tub, that is. Locally, a hike up the Pentland Hills is a must, and for those seeking a city fix, Edinburgh is a thirty-minute drive away. 

Brambled Bliss

Games Room

Built in the 1900s. this magical estate is a National Monuments of Scotland building and was designed by two artists. Their effect can still be seen today, with tapestries hanging on walls and quirky art pieces - alongside bookcases stuffed with reading material in nearly all the rooms, giving the home a cosy lived-in feel. Spread across five turrets, the space combines castle fantasies with historical touches. Wannabe sleeping beauties will love the four-poster bed in the top room - when you do arise, bathe in the bathroom with its vintage tub and swirling retro wallpaper. Those who prefer fact over fiction can nose around the home's original features, including in the wooden beamed kitchen, complete with an AGA for cooking something delicious.

Garden Sprites & Bluebells

The market town of Cupar is a bustling area where ancient monuments collide with vibrant, modern high streets. A fifteen-minute drive from St Andrews, where you can play eighteen holes at the ‘Home of Golf’, you’ll need a home where you can hang up your clubs after a long day. Six minutes on foot from Cupar station, this unique building has historic tales to tell. Dating from 1815, this was the town council’s Burgh Chambers, where important decisions and important people were commonplace inside its walls. But today, you can play the VIP role, as a guest in this vast apartment.

Upon entering the grand living space, you’ll be in awe of its magnificent, period interiors. Transporting you back in time, every piece of furniture has been carefully selected with the help of a Scottish furniture expert, with key Georgian pieces and others made by local artisans. A luxe colour scheme of olive green and rich mahogany flooring is illuminated by one of the grandest set of bay windows you could imagine. Dine below the chandeliers before heading off to slumber in one of two unique bedrooms, with wooden walls, brass bed frames, and original sash windows.

Mahogany Chambers

Known locally as the Kingdom of Fife, this east coast region of Scotland is awash with historic monuments, ancient towns, sweeping beaches, and fresh sea air. While its heritage speaks volumes, there are of course plenty of built-up areas with everything a modern visitor could need.

Kinghorn offers pubs, traditional chippies, a golf course, and cute cafés, but the standout feature is the huge town hall. This Tudor-Gothic style building was built in 1826, with its ground floors having played the role of council chambers and even a prison. Secret stairways and enormous windows let you admire views of Kinghorn Beach, a seven-minute walk away. But why are we focusing solely on this historic landmark? Well, because this is your home. 

Your apartments are set over the first and second floors, with jaw-dropping, period interiors which feel regal, luxurious, and opulent. Rich red fabrics, elegant cornicing, chandeliers, solid marble fireplaces, antique furniture, gilded mirror frames – we could go on. There’s even a private walled garden at the back, where you can sit out under the stars sipping whisky and looking out over your very own kingdom.

Nestled on a 3,100-hectare estate, this Grade A Listed lodge has tranquillity running through its core. It’s an ideal base if you dream of being surrounded by nature while enjoying the comforts of modern life. Spend your days in the private hot tub or unwinding by the outdoor fireplace – just the spot as the stars break out above. With landscaped grounds, you can stroll in the fresh air to your heart’s content – or for a change of scenery, we recommend hiking the Pentland Hills instead. 

Graceful Grove

Baby Bath

This bright apartment is the ideal base for exploring the west of Scotland and its stunning landscapes. Located on a pretty estate in the town of Blanefield, it provides easy access to the great outdoors, and has space for your whole group to relax in style between adventures. 

The chic living space has pistachio green sofas where you can stretch out and watch a great movie to unwind at the end of a busy day. Head into the kitchen, and you'll find everything you need to cook up some hearty fare to enjoy in the stylish dining area – make sure you pause to admire the quirky unicorn wallpaper. There's even some outdoor space for you to enjoy – pour a dram of whiskey to sip on the balcony or wander through the shared gardens and admire the little loch. 

The West Highland Way, Scotland's most famous walk, is only ten minutes away from your front door, so hikers can be first to hit the trail in the morning. There are also riding stables under ten minutes away on foot, a range of local shops and cafés, and Glengoyne Distillery is a five-minute drive away. And, if you want to explore further afield then you're in the perfect location – Glasgow and Stirling are both within driving distance.

Charming Scottish escapes don’t get much more charming than this cottage. It’s tucked away amid the cobbled causeways of pretty Culross, a 17th-century town that’s been used as a filming location for Outlander. On your way to the cottage, you might pass by the pier, where you can breathe in the bracing air from the Firth of Forth and take in the view. 

Once you step through the door of the cottage, you’ll feel a million miles from your ordinary life – R&R is in the air. There’s an enchanting mix of the old and new here, with vintage furniture and original artwork blending in with modern amenities and every luxury you might need. You can spend your days exploring the area and your evenings curled up by the fire with a dram from the honesty bar. When the weather is fine, you’ll want to soak up the sunshine in the suntrap terrace, dining on charcuterie lovingly prepared by your host. There are thoughtful touches at every turn here – it’s impossible not to get into holiday mode. 

Though the cottage feels miles away, it’s actually only a thirty-nine-minute drive from Glasgow so you can get your fill of the bright city lights. We’d stay closer to home though, strolling through Culross in the mornings and devouring books in the reading nook at the cottage in the afternoon. This is a dreamy place to call home, even for a few days. 

Wood Smoke & Whisky

Pool / Snooker Table

Situated on a working farm and sporting estate in Perthshire, this refurbished Victorian home is a great option for larger groups wanting to explore the Big Tree Country. Due to its elevated position, you'll get stunning panoramic views across Aberfeldy, Ben Lawers, and the surrounding hills. There's a cinema and games room to enjoy here, as well as a private hot tub to soak in as the sun goes down. The large fenced garden has plenty of outdoor seating, as well as BBQ facilities for alfresco dining in the warmer months – and a fire pit for cooler evenings. We suggest hiring a car so you can discover the dramatic landscape of this county with ease.

Beside the Farmhouse

If escaping to nature is your idea of the perfect break, then look no further. Located in east-central Scotland, Fife is only a forty-minute drive from Edinburgh and an hour to Glasgow, but far enough away to feel secluded. Drive out if you’re looking to explore the cities, but we can’t promise you that you’d want to leave this home once you’ve settled in. Surrounded by trees and green slopes, this place is bright and modern, but still oozing with the potential for optimal comfort. Light the wood-burning stove, claim your spot on the plush sofa and let it envelop you as you let go of all the tension you’ve been holding onto. The egg chair is the perfect spot for bookworms, but you’d better be quick on calling dibs because we can guarantee everyone would be eager to have a go. Even though this home is the epitome of relaxation inside, you’re going to want to brave the nippy Scottish air to go outside – it’ll be worth it, trust us. Head out with a bottle of prosecco and slip into the hot tub – just when you think you couldn’t be more relaxed. 

If you have to leave, stay connected to nature by visiting the Lochore Meadows, or stroll through the Townhill Wood where you’ll encounter century-old trees. Cleish Castle is an eleven-minute drive away, with Locleven Castle being just a couple of minutes more. Head to the local golf course, eight-minutes from here, to play a round or two, or take to the loch for waterboarding. In between, pop in at Genaro’s Fish Bar or The Village Inn for a bite to eat.

Rest for the Soul

Children's Dinnerware

Located in the small village of Kippen, it provides easy access to local cafes and restaurants. Plus, it’s a great base for explore the Trossachs mountains – just a thirty-minute drive away. Wherever the day takes you, this home has everything you could need to switch off and unwind. Outside, there’s a terrace with incredible views across the countryside.
