Being far from the road and surrounded by fields and woodlands you can just sit and listen to the silence being broken by birdsong and the occasional sounds of mother nature. Outside the conservatory, you have pride of place on the patio with stunning views of Ben Ledi.

The farmhouse nestles in the heart of the Trossachs with stunning views over green fields to rolling hills. The backdrop is the ever-changing "Ben Ledi" and the only traffic around is the sheep and cows in the nearby fields. Right on our doorstep, the new cycleway provides very easy cycling on a nearly level disused railway trackbed from here to Killin. Forest Enterprise has provided cycle friendly pathways through the forests, and besides this, there are many easily accessible and enjoyable walks and tracks in the woods and hills surrounding Auchenlaich Farmhouse here at Callander.
