Earnknowe Holiday Cottages
EARNKNOWE SELF-CATERING HOLIDAY COTTAGES in MacLaren country, are set amongst the Scottish Central Highlands in the Breadalbane sector of the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. Earnknowe was once a small farm and faces south, with spectacular views over Loch Earn to the mountains and Edinample Castle.
A 300 year old barn has been converted into three, two-bedroomed cottages - Arran, Bute and Cumbrae. There is a one-bedroomed cottage - Kintyre, ideal for two people and a two-bedroomed lodge or cabin - Mull, which has all accommodation on one level and a Disabled Category 3 rating. All the accommodation faces south with magnificient views over Loch Earn where ospreys can often be seen hunting for brown trout.

Kintyre, our favourite cottage, has a double bedroom, shower room and a living room with kitchen area. Car parking is close to each cottage and there is a large garden area with picnic tables.
Around Earnknowe Holiday Cottages there is much to see and explore and you can meet the donkeys, the hens are likely to call on you and you may see red squirrels and red deer around the old railway cutting running behind the cottages. You can walk down this old line to the village of Lochearnhead. There is fishing off our jetty and we can arrange for you to launch your boat at the Lochearnhead Watersport Centre.
