Originally a Blacksmith's workshop, The Old Smiddy at Loch Katrine has recently been converted into a beautiful three bedroom holiday cottage which sits on the water's edge in an isolated corner of Loch Katrine, Stronachlachar, Loch Lomond & Trossachs.
The lochside Cottage is nestled in the Loch Lomond and TrossachsNational Park with breathtaking views of Loch Katrine and the surrounding hills of Ben Lomond, Ben Ledi and Ben Venue. An ideal location from which to absorb one of Scotland's most picturesque areas. Beautifully decked in white oak flooring with a log burning fire. Residents can enjoy the cottage's modern comforts in an idyllic setting - with views of the loch from every room. The cottage sleeps up to six people.
Stronachlachar lies only a short distance from the colourful and welcoming villages of Aberfoyle and Callander which offer a choice of pubs, restaurants, unique shops and a host of colourful festivals run all year round.
Nearby activities include golf, sailing and a range of other watersport and leisure club facilities. A wealth of walking and cycling routes also provide opportunities to discover some unforgettable views.
The Trossachs have some of the most scenic beauty spots in Scotland and have been made famous by the stories of Rob Roy. The Old Smiddy at Loch Katrine overlooks the Factors Island that Rob Roy used to imprison the Dukes factor.
The lochside holiday cottage is just a few miles from Loch Lomond and the famous West Highland Way which is a must for all keen walkers. You will be able to walk part of the West Highland Way and also visit the caves where Rob Roy hide.
