Fascinating location. We loved the history and uniqueness of the property. Lots of beds and bathrooms. Kitchen and scullery were really well stocked. The stairs were challenging for the littlest ones - I probably couldn’t recommend it for those with children under 5, although they loved the garden. Lots of running and playing. Overall it was a real adventure and we enjoyed it very much.

We got together as a group of 10 great friends to celebrate my husbands 60th birthday and we had an incredible weekend. Old Newton of Doune is absolutely fascinating, and not only beautiful, quirky & historic, but very comfortable, homely & warm. The location is also brilliant - with Doune Castle & the village both a short stroll away. There seems to be a room to suit every occasion too in this extensive but cosy house. The main Kitchen was always the hub , however we really loved the music room & the long room for fun, and dining in the evening in the upstairs dining room was very grand. There are unique highlights to be found in every corner. Vicki is a great communicative host too. We loved our stay, it made a milestone birthday very memorable !
