Riverside B&B
We loved the Riverside room. Beautiful view of the river. The room was very clean and comfortable. We slept in so we didn’t get a chance to have the breakfast, but it looked like it was going to be amazing. The host are incredibly friendly and accommodating. They even gave us some extra cookies that Brian had made.!

Had such a lovely stay, the owners were so accommodating. Genuinely looking at when to come back.
I took advantage of a rare child free night and slept through breakfast, but they knew that and I got fresh coffee and a sausage and bacon roll when I got up for check out.

Comfy, friendly, convenient
Good sized room, clean, comfy.
Fried breakfast ok, but a little cool and pre prepared, i.e. bacon over cooked, mushrooms cool and black pudding still had the wrapping on

Comfortable B&B, easily walkable to the main street of Callander. Warm host. Some quirky touches such as color changing led lights in the shower. I loved the Large Double En Suite at the end of the hall. It has a beautiful view of the river and also an odd little private indoor balcony, also with a great view. It worked great to sit there with a cup of tea during a bit of rain while my partner napped in the main room. On the way into town there's a riverside park that has great walks. Take the time to go through the back yard gate to sit by the river, I saw beautiful birds and it was a peaceful lovely view.

Wee Gem!
So glad we stayed at this wee gem! Short walk to town and cycle track. Room was excellent with lovely river views and even its own separate indoor balcony area! Great breakfast freshly made, nothing too much trouble for the friendly hosts.
Enjoyed watching Bertie in the garden 😀
Totally recommend.

Valerie was very friendly. She greeted us every morning with a bright and cheery good morning. She provided generous portions; her food was fresh and cooked to exactly what we requested.
Our en-suite bedroom was very clean. We had a wonderful view to the river that flowed in her backyard. Valerie had bird feeders outside in her backyard which provided a melodious birdsong from our room and from the breakfast room.
Valerie provided terrific dinner recommendations (all within walking distance). She even made our reservations.
The Riverside House was well within 40 minutes to Stirling Castle, Wallace National Monument and Doune Castle.
We will certainly rebook when we (fingers crossed) travel to Scotland the next time. We would definitely recommend anyone staying in Callander to book at the Riverside House.
