Things to Do
Hillwalking starts just outside our door here
in the Campsie Fells. Travel 40 minutes by car and you are in
shot of three munros, which is to say a mountain over 3,000 ft.
Less strenuous, the Campsie Trail links the villages of Fintry,
Kippen, Gargunnock, Balfron and Lennoxtown and is excellent for
both walking and cycling.
Fishing on the estate, there's free fishing for wild carp
in our own loch, or you can go for trout and salmon in the River
Endrick. We can arrange permits, as required.
Golf. From the local 9 hole course at balfron to the world
famous championship courses at Gleneagles and St Andrew's, this
is where golf was born.
Loup of Fintry is a spectacular 94-ft waterfall of the
River Endrick, just two miles from the village on the b818.
Glengoyne Distillery, near Killearn on the A81. Tours,
tasting and nosing sessions, plus a heritage room devoted to
Scotland's national drink.
At Pots of Gartness, near Killearn, at certain times of
the year you can see salmon leaping up a waterfall to spawn. |
