  • Furnished ecolodges on Loch Katrine, 20 minutes from Callander
  • Go Ape Aberfoyle 15 minutes’ drive; Stirling 45 minutes
  • Kitchenette; decked area with views of the lake; discounted cruises
Whether you’re after waterfront strolls or challenging hikes (for you and your canine companion) along forested mountain trails, a holiday in the Trossachs ought to deliver aplenty. A top place to stay to make the most of all the area has to offer is Loch Katrine Eco Lodges, a family-friendly site on the easternmost shore of Loch Katrine, overlooked by Ben A’an mountain. The cosy ecolodges come with real beds, a toilet and sink (a shower block is nearby) and a kitchenette with microwave, fridge, toaster and, of course, a kettle for a nice morning (or afternoon) brew. Other comforts include a TV, but why would you be watching telly when you can sit on your private decked area – maybe with a light lunch on the picnic table – taking in unforgettable views of the lake? When you want to progress from watching the lake to sailing on it, it’s good to know that staying here entitles you to a 10% discount on scheduled cruises, so book yourself on the Steamship Sir Walter Scott (which has been plying these waters since 1900) or one of the other boats. Cruises run daily and throughout the year, and it’s less than a five-minute walk to the departure point (Trossachs Pier). If you want to stay on dry land and explore the surrounding woodland on two wheels, a 10% off cycle hire ensures that you don’t feel left out of the money-off offers. For shops, restaurants and bars, Aberfoyle is a 15-minute drive from the site, or you can head to Callander (20 minutes).

What customers say

This site is praised for its stunning location and peaceful atmosphere, with many guests highlighting the beautiful views and opportunities for walking and cycling. Accommodation, particularly the lodges and pods, is generally found to be cosy, clean, and well-equipped, with private shower facilities being a popular feature. Staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful. However, Wi-Fi is frequently reported as slow or non-existent. Some guests noted issues with midges, particularly in warmer months, and a few mentioned uncomfortable sofa beds. Inconsistent booking information and occasional maintenance issues with the cabins were also raised.

 Chel B. 1 review

Loch lodge (ensuite, four person)

Liked The location is amazing. Its stunning, but also so well connected with the Trossachs Explorer stopping in 8 times a day. This little bus can get you all around to various hikes and smaller towns, as well as Callander.

The cabin is fitted for all you need. We stayed in Loch Achray which has the ensuite bathroom. We were surprised to find how nice the shower was with hot water that never ran out. Wonderful after a long day hiking.

Microwave, mini-fridge, utensils, kettle, toaster, dishes - all provided. We picked up food in Callander on the way in and had breakfast at the on site cafe. There is even a TV!

It was clean, everyone was helpful and friendly, and it was quiet.

Disliked The internet is pretty terrible at the cabin, but you can get good signal in the main parking lot and cafe.

Liked Great location. Clean. Good customer service. Perfectly acceptable facilities.

Disliked £100 / night feels a bit on the high side for what you are getting. I'm 6ft3 and I couldn't quite fit into the bed.

Liked Beautiful site, friendly, helpful staff

Disliked Would have been helpful to have been informed about £50 security deposit at point of booking, had no success in accesing the payment link, after many tries, (very frustrating), only to be told not to worry, just don't break anything, unprofessional!

 Charlene l. 1 review

Loch lodge (disabled friendly, ensuite)

Liked The view was lovely, easy to check in pod was locked nice.

Disliked The fridge was loud and next the bed so was annoying after the first night. I had the pod recommended for disabled but if you have wheelchair you won't get around the bed because of the table at end of bed not ideal also the bathroom door can't open fully because of the long rug 🙈 very frustrating.

Local attractions

You’ve explored the forest on foot, now it’s time to see it from above. At Go Ape Aberfoyle (15 minutes’ drive), ziplines and high-rope courses put you high above the tree canopy, so you can take in remarkable sights of Queen Elizabeth Forest Park, its lakes and moorland. Stirling (45 minutes), on the River Forth, is dominated by Stirling Castle, a largely 16th-century structure sitting atop a craggy plateau. Staff in Renaissance garb move through the elegant interiors, recreating the court of King James V. Near the university campus, the National Wallace Monument has far-reaching views of the city and beyond. Highlights in Glasgow (60 minutes) include the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, with collections ranging from natural history to the decorative arts, including furniture pieces by Charles Rennie Mackintosh. After visiting the Botanic Gardens, head to the National Piping Centre to learn about Scotland’s famed bagpipes.
