Guest Reviews
- samantha (10/5): Great overnight stay with a delicious breakfast. - Thoroughly enjoyable stay with Andrea & Tim. They made us and our dog feel extremely welcome. Food was tasty and the room was very clean and comfortable.
- joyce (10/5): Not a drive by a must stay - Excellent service from owner Alistair and all his staff. Room was excellent and breakfast amazing. We just loved it.
- David (10/5): - Excellent room,lovely owner,great breakfast and pet friendly.Perfect.
- Colin (10/5): High standard of accommodation/service. - Not easy to find initially but got there, phoned proprietor and he was helpful.
Room was superb, as was adjoining bathroom. TV was also SkyQ which I hadn’t got anywhere all that summer when hiking. Also made me food when I arrived out-with dining hours.
- Adam (10/5): 10/06/2021 - Lovely little B+B. The room was lovely, very clean and Alister couldn’t have been more helpful. Just what you need after a day in the hills. Will definitely return.
- Peter (10/5): At home feel, clean, comfortable & great breakfast - Lovely place, comfy bed, good wifi throughout, ideally placed for Loch Earn. I had been wild camping at the Loch for 3 nights so was looking forward to a nice shower and some heat after 3 nights/days of downpours and more of less constant rain. With another 3 nights of wild camping ahead after my stay the excellent breakfast set me up nicely, full Scottish with bacon, egg, tattie scone, haggis, square sausage, black pudding, beans, toast, croissant, fresh orange or apple juice, filter coffee plus a range of yogurts, cereals and fresh fruit. With Sky TV in the room and an excellent wifi connection is also great if like me you are just looking for somewhere to chill and relax but would be great if you had to catch up on any work etc, only issue I had was the owner's had literally just had Sky Q installed about a week before my stay and it dropped out a few times but Alistair was really helpful getting it sorted out. Although located on the main road the double glazed windows and think curtains keep out the noise and light if you are looking for to sleep in and last sitting for breakfast was 10am, highly recommend and suitable for a wide range of travellers from stop overs to longer stays for local hill walking, mountain biking or fishing.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely night's stay - We had a great stay for one night over a weekend out hill walking. Our bed was huge and the whole room was very comfortable, with a lovely new bathroom with views out over the hills. Location was excellent and we had a really warm welcome. We would definitely stay here again.
- Morten (10/5): God oplevelse - Dejligt ophold. Rigtig fin service!
- Andy (10/5): - Very nice property, especially the brand new bathroom, with nice and friendly service from Alistair. Breakfast was great too. Would recommend.
- Susan (8/5): On top of the Golden Larches. - Rooms are above the restaurant. Quiet since they quit serving food at 7 pm. We went down the road to Mhor 84. Good food and had some live entertainment. Rooms are along the road but not much traffic going by. Lots of space but stairs to climb.
- Lesley (10/5): - Lovely, personal welcome, lovely room and very good value.
- Mary R. (10/5): Great! - We loved everything about The Golden Larches - the setting, the supper, the bed, the breakfast, chatting with the owner and the iced ginger cake for the road! Thanks Alistair for the great directions - we had a lovely day driving through the park and seeing Loch Lomond AND we made the ferry! Come see us in Colorado. Mary
- Cat (10/5): Lovely base to explore the Highlands. - I only stayed one night but I had a lovely experience. A warm welcome, great room and tasty meal in the conservatory restaurant.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Der Besitzer des Hotels bemüht sich sehr um seine Gäste und hat uns zum Ausgangspunkt einer schönen Wanderung gebracht.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Large well equipped room above the restaurant. - Would stay here again good stop on long journey. Restaurant very average.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice room - Enjoyed our stay, nice room & location. Would happily go back. Only issue was lack of spare toilet roll and the beds were set up as singles for a couple.
- rolf (8/5): Fräscha rum - Trevligt värdfolk, bra restaurang. Bra centrum för vandring
