Dog-Friendly Stirling

Ideal as a romantic escape for a couple or a weekend break, Salmon Leap Lodge is an immaculately presented detached lodge and an ideal base for couples to explore the stunning countryside and small villages at the foot of the Ochil Hills. This bright accommodation is beautifully presented throughout and provides an ideal base for couples and friends. All on one level, it offers a main open plan living space with French doors opening onto decking and a small lawn, an ideal spot for al fresco dining or relaxing with a glass of wine. The main living area has comfortable seating and is the hub of the lodge, and the well-equipped kitchen is the perfect space for preparing a celebration meal. There are two very attractively presented bedrooms (a double bedroom and single bedroom) with colour co-ordinated soft furnishings, and a shower room completes the picture.
Situated on a small lodge park with 5½ acres of landscaped rural countryside to explore, you can enjoy leisurely riverside walks and fishing on the River Devon, all with spectacular views towards the Ochil Hills. The property is set on the outskirts of the attractive conservation village of Dollar, which is 5 minutes’ walk away. The village has a good selection of local amenities, cafés with home baking, restaurants, a pub, galleries and a museum. You are spoilt for choice for walks and can either take a gentle stroll along the River Devon or a more vigorous walk through a deep gorge of Dollar Glen up to the 500-year-old Castle Campbell. Or pack a picnic and visit the Japanese Gardens at Cowden with its woodland walks and beautiful garden.
There are over twnety local golf courses within easy driving distance, including the world renowned Gleneagles course which is only 20 minutes’ drive away, making Salmon Leap Lodge a great base for a golfing holiday. The Ochil Hills provide great scope for hill walking in dramatic hills and glens and is great for mountain biking.
The historic city of Stirling is only 12 miles away with its magnificent castle and popular visitor attractions, including the Wallace Monument and Bannockburn Heritage Centre. If you prefer to leave the car behind, there is a regular bus service into the city.
