Perfect place for a stay in Sterling

The house is very comfortable and equipped with everything you need. The location is excellent - close to the castle, close to the town center, close to the roads to Edinburgh, Glasgow, Loch Lomond etc. The communication with the owner was very friendly, helpful and quick. We really enjoyed our stay.

Sublime Stirling Stay

Alison’s home was comfortable and fully equipped, we were delighted by the view and the proximity to our event venues in Stirling. As alumni of the uni, it was lovely to stay in the town for a change! I would highly recommend Alison’s accommodation, which is flexible for all sorts of occasions. Many thanks!

This was a great stay! The location was perfect and the host was fantastic. The only drawback was that there must be animals in the house when not rented out because our allergies were triggered. We took medication and then it wasn’t an issue.

Lovely spacious property very centrally located. Well equipped if a little cluttered. NB one of the beds in the twin room is a small single, which was a little too small for us
