About this property
Situated in the village of Killin, Millmore Cabin is a delightful single storey lodge surrounded by picturesque countryside, overlooking the magnificent Falls of Dochart. Entry to the property is via a porchway, which offers hanging space for coats and storage for shoes and boots. From here, head into the cosy living room, which offers one sofa and two armchairs to relax in. There is a woodburning stove that will fill the room with heat on the chillier evenings. A sliding door opens onto the patio and adjoining decking giving spectacular views of the River Dochart that flows by at the edge of the lawn. From here you can enjoy sitting on the patio or decking with a glass of wine and spot the local wildlife, including red squirrel, heron, otter, pine marten, woodpecker as well as some of the local ducks. The wood panelled walls of the dining room and galley kitchen give the space an authentic feel, and the dining table is a great place to gather together to enjoy a home-cooked meal together. The property is well placed in the centre of the village, with a host of amenities, restaurants, pubs and cafés just a short walk away, as well as notable attractions like the magnificent waterfall of the Falls Of Dochart, Clan McNabb Burial Grounds and the Dochart Viaduct. Walkers will enjoy hiking Ben Lawyers, the highest of the surrounding Bens, which offers stunning views of the nearby mountains and lochs, while watersport enthusiasts can take part in kayaking, canoeing and fishing on Loch Tay, and cyclists can access National Cycle Route 7 from the opposite bank of the River Dochart. Millmore Cabin is a fantastic base to return to after a day of exploration and adventure. EPC Rating: Band E

The cottage is situated in a peaceful location, next to the falls. It is in a good place to get around to the kelpies and loch Lommond. The pub over the bridge does pub grub and the Courie restaurant down the road is excellent, you do have to book both of those. The cottage has everything that you need for a peaceful week away.
