    Bal-na-Coille has everything you need a real home from home. The accommodation throughout is excellent. The surrounding area is beautiful and we were really lucky to have sunshine throughout our stay. So spent lots of time sitting out on the veranda and sunning ourselves in the garden, Killin is a lovely village and we would recommend the Courie Inn for dinner, very dog friendly.

    Would recommend staying here. The house was fabulous and a well equipped kitchen etc. and the rooms were very nice. Beds were comfy. Bit tricky to Locate as the post code takes you to a different house. The house sat at the back of a drive on it’s own and the view was superb. Lovely walks nearby. Jake family & friends.

    Great location in a small, quiet town

    Large, roomy 3 bedroom house on the edge of a picturesque Trossacs town. Location is excellent for exploring the surrounding countryside and National Park. The house is very well appointed and has lots of room. Seating is comfortable, as are the beds. 3 bathrooms are roomy and well appointed. Open plan kitchen / dining room / living room is very spacious. Kitchen is well equipped. Excellent property.

    The house is very homely with everything you could possibly need for a relaxing stay. It was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. Quiet neighbourhood with lots of home comforts . For our 3 night stay there are enough restaurants close by to eat in a different place each night. The location of the house is central to explore east and west coast in hour to hour and half driving. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property. Contact with owner was fast and easy.

    Fantastic Highlands Escape

    We stayed at Bal-Na-Coille for five nights in August. The property has been decorated to a high modern standard with all rooms having on suite shower rooms. There is a separate bathroom too. The kitchen well designed and was well stocked with everything you would need in a self catering holiday and there is a BBQ available for use. The weather was against us most days but it was great to come back to the property after a day battling the elements thanks to how welcoming and cosy the house is. I would highly recommend this property and I'd like to thank the owner Mick for all his help and attentiveness throughout our stay.

    Tolles Haus, es blieben keine Wünsche offen

    Wir waren für zwei Wochen mit 5 Personen und 2 Hunden in dieser tollen Unterkunft. Die Lage in Killin ist super, man geht zu Fuß in den Ort um einzukaufen oder essen zu gehen. Das Haus ist top ausgestattet, es hat uns wirklich nichts gefehlt. Die Betten sind recht schmal aber sehr gemütlich und jedes Zimmer hat ein eigenes Bad, das ist wirklich toll. Küche auch bestens ausgestattet. Tolle Ausblicke aus dem gemütlichen Wohnzimmer. Zu den verschiedenen Attraktionen in der Umgebung fährt man meist ca 1 Stunde oder länger. Mike war ein hervorragender Gastgeber, immer ansprechbar, sehr freundlich und entspannt. Vielen herzlichen Dank und alles Gute!

    Fantastic home from home

    We had a fabulous week at Bal-na-coille! The property was immaculate, well-equipped and very spacious and comfortable. The living area is open plan with lots of space in each of the kitchen, dining and seating areas. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you would need and more. We’re only sorry that the weather wasn’t good enough for a barbecue. Before we arrived, Mike (the host) kept us fully informed sending us a welcome pack and giving us recommendations for dog-friendly places to eat in Killin. We can highly recommend The Courie Inn and the Falls of Dochart Inn was also very good. A really thoughtful touch was a box of Quality Street and a bottle of wine waiting for us when we arrived. There’s lots to see in and around Killin and the autumn colours were stunning. The Falls are spectacular and we hunted out the Stone Circle, the Dochart Viaduct and Finlarig Castle without having to leave the town. We also enjoyed short trips to Aberfeldy, Pitlochry and Callander. We’ve every intention of coming back to Killin during another season to be able to appreciate the stunning scenery. Thank you to Mike and family for letting us share your lovely home.

    Lovely house in a lovely setting. En suites in every room makes sharing a house so easy. Beds comfortable. Well equipped, cooked a big Sunday roast and had enough pots and dishes. Easy walk to village which has well stocked supermarket and good local pubs/ restaurants.. Courie Inn especially. Seating is great for after long walks and wood burner a treat.
