About this property

A Georgian Masterpiece Steps from Stirling

Treat yourself to a historic stay at our 19th century Georgian home, just a 5 minute walk from the Stirling town centre, which has plenty of shops, bars and restaurants. Stroll the enclosed garden with your dog(s) at your side, then cosy up with a Robert Burns book and a whisky beside one of our crackling fireplaces. “It's like walking into a Jane Austen Novel,” says a past guest, and we are in full agreement, with one exception: our modern amenities. In other words; it’s a Jane Austen novel with Netflix and an espresso maker.

Rather than leave this magnificent home empty while I'm on tour for my work in the music industry, I decided to share it with others. I take great care to ensure guests feel at home here but not like they're staying in someone else's house. I provide quality amenities (including whisky!) and a "relaxed luxury" design. With space for up to 10 people and an acre of landscaped grounds for playing outdoors, it's an effortless place to host everything from team building retreats and friend getaways to birthday parties and family reunions.

Outstanding property
Totally blown away with this property, it is absolutely stunning. Our family of 9 organised this as a surprise present for our Father’s 80th birthday. The house is spotlessly clean and the welcome hamper and Christmas tree were especially nice touches. It’s in a fabulous location and just a few minutes from the centre of town. We had the most amazing memorable time and would absolutely recommend this to anybody.

About the host

Hosted by Alexandra

Host profile image
I work in the music industry, and I'm on tour most of the time. I stay between this lovely house in Scotland, Ibiza, Malta or where ever the music takes me.

I'm available to make your stay as special as it should be, from any questions you have before booking, to after you book, to the day you arrive, during your stay and till you leave, if it's an extra cot, bed, special dietary requirements or even just a recommendation for the best restaurant for dinner, I'm at the other end of the phone when ever you need, you won't want to leave.

Why they chose this property

I work in the music industry and I’m lucky enough to be on tour most of the time, so I thought it would be a lovely idea to let other nice people experience my stunning Georgian home, which is a mere 500 steps away from the city centre of the historic town of Stirling. I’d say my home is one of the finest Georgian houses in Stirling and yet, very homely, set in nearly an acer of grounds with an enormous 10 feet wall surrounding our very large private garden, I’d like to welcome families or friends who want to experience a real Scotland with whisky on tap and haggis in the fridge including my personal whisky cream sauce, which I’ll leave the recipe for you. One day here you will know why Scotland is one of the most friendliest places on earth.

What makes this property unique

Amazing very large back garden with a large 10 foot wall making the very large garden the perfect getaway from the outside, great place for the kids to play football, have a picnic, or barbecue or just let your dogs to run wild.

There are 2 bikes and helmets available for you to explore Stirling
Pets more than welcome except bedrooms.
Ample Free Parking at the house.
