Neighbourhood highlights

The place is honestly fantastic! It is a really quiet and conservation village area with its own attractions but is situated bang in the middle of central Scotland. We have fabulous restaurants in the village that you would wouldnt believe were there. The free Parking & Ride train station gives you the best access to the city centre without the hefty parking fees in the city. We leave a list of numbers of bars, restaurants, attractions, and more in the manual.

We have now added a professional out door BBQ Hut that takes 12 persons, so even if the weather is cold, you can BBQ inside!
