1 / 24Riverview - Strathyre
Strathyre, Stirling
A stylish five star period cottage for five in Strathyre village, with a roaring wood burner, a stone walled dining room opening to a fully enclosed garden and two dogs welcome.
Walks and cycle routes leave straight from the doorstep at Riverview: Route 7 of the Sustrans network, the Rob Roy Long Distance Footpath and the Strathyre forest trails. This stylish period cottage sits in the picture postcard village of Strathyre, within Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, and offers five star, dog friendly comfort for five, with two dogs welcome and a fully enclosed garden.
Coats and boots go in the hall, and the light, bright lounge beyond has comfy, spacious seating, a Smart TV, an Xbox and a roaring wood burner for the dogs to lie by after a day in the hills. Back through the hall are the well equipped kitchen and a stylish dining room with exposed feature stone walls and a Bose speaker, its French doors opening onto the garden, and a bathroom completes the ground floor. Upstairs, the king size bedroom and the double with an additional single both have beautiful views, each with an en suite shower room.
The garden is fully enclosed, with seating areas for meals in the open air and lazy evenings under the stars, a wee dram in hand, while the dogs explore. A few steps from the lower garden reach a mature grassed area where the dogs can roll, and there is a lockable bike shed for anyone bringing wheels.
Loch Lubnaig is close at hand, with Loch Earn and Loch Tay within easy reach for watersports, and there is a fantastic range of Munros to explore, Ben Vorlich among them. Balquhidder kirkyard holds the resting place of Rob Roy, Callander and Stirling are within easy reach, and a dog here gets forest, loch and hill from the one front door.

Book with holidaycottages.co.ukFrequently Asked Questions
Is Riverview - Strathyre dog friendly?
Yes, Riverview welcomes up to two dogs. The cottage has a fully enclosed garden accessible through the French doors of the stone-walled dining room, so your dogs can head outside safely without you having to think twice about it.
Are dogs allowed at Riverview - Strathyre year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so it's worth contacting the host directly to confirm availability for your dates. What's clear is that the location suits dogs in every season — forest, loch, and hill are all on the doorstep whatever time of year you visit.
What should I know before visiting Riverview - Strathyre with my dog?
The cottage has steep stairs in the traditional village style, which the listing notes dogs tend to manage better than humans with luggage — worth bearing in mind if your dog struggles with steps. Beyond that, the setting is genuinely hard to beat: Loch Lubnaig is a short walk down the glen for a swim, forest rises directly behind the village, and the Rob Roy Way passes right through Strathyre so you can set off on foot in any direction.
