A good option in Doune and in the Stirling Area
Pros:

Quite an old building which has been modernised and updated. Food and bar and restaurant were good.

Cons:

Nothing serious. What guests need to know in advance that very good discounts for food are available Monday to Thursday. We didn’t know and missed this on our Friday to Saturday stay.

Pent og rent i en bitteliten historisk landsby vest for Stirling
Pros:

Populær restaurant med fullt hus til Sunday Roast og noen få fint dekorerte gjesterom oppe. Deilige senger, god dusj og fine tekstiler. Hyggelig velkomst. Og godt med parkering utenfor, inkl for el-biler.

Cons:

Ingenting

Excellent stay, good value for money. Highly recommended!
Pros:

We love it here and come at least twice a year. We love the location, we enjoy the food and the atmosphere and we’ve never had a problem with the rooms. Clean, tidy, a great shower and nothing is any bother for the staff.

Cons:

Room was too warm but keeping window open sorted that :)

Pros:

Nous avons tout aimé. Le patron parlant un peu français en arrivant, nous avons ete accueilli chaleureusement. L'hôtel est d'une propreté irréprochable. La literie est la meilleure de notre road trip pour le moment. On a tres bien dormi. Le petit déjeuner est excellent, ainsi que le dîner.
Merci, nous reviendrons si nous sommes de passage

Pros:

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The Woodside has been tastefully renovated and "Juniper", our double room, was quite small but still very comfortable. The Sunday Roast was amazing! Plenty of parking was available, including EV charging.
Great outdoor area for the afternoon drink. Woodside was a lovely, welcoming place to stay, an easy walk to Doune Castle and the main street.

Cons:

The main road infront of the property carries a lot of traffic, especially trucks. The double glazing keeps most of the noise out though.

Pros:

Parken auf dem hauseigenen Parkplatz, besonders für Motorradfahrende sehr angenehm. Ein Restaurant direkt im Haus mit sehr leckerem Essen. Das Personal ist freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Matratze war äußerst bequem.

Pros:

Das Restaurant hat sehr leckeres Essen und das Personal war sehr freundlich.

Cons:

Im Badezimmer ist Schimmel an der Decke, die Duschbrause ist völlig verdreckt. Überhaupt erscheint das Zimmer wenig sauber. Das Bett war extra kurz und viel zu schmal. Als ob es nur für eine Person gedacht wäre.
