About this house rental

The Family Barn is situated near Glasgow in Renfrewshire at the heart of the stunning Finlaystone Estate, which overlooks the Clyde estuary. The Barn is designed to suit many types of guest from a couple, two couples or a family.

The Family Barn is on the ground floor of a recently constructed oak framed building and there are exposed oak posts and beams which add to its charm. It has one fully enclosed bedroom but is otherwise open plan and a flexible space. Being on the ground floor it is easily accessible and we have ensured it is wheelchair friendly.

It has a large bathroom and walk in shower, an enclosed bedroom with kingsized bed, a separate sleeping area with a double or single bed which can be curtained off from the main room for privacy. A sofa bed can also be made up providing flexible space for up to 6 people. The beds are extremely comfortable too! The fully fitted kitchen is very well equipped and has a microwave oven, nespresso coffee machine and a washing machine and dryer. A wide screen TV is provided and there is free WiFi. The toilet and shower are disabled friendly with easy access.

Outdoors there is access to extensive gardens and woodlands. Ideal for a couple who want lots of space as well as for a family or group of friends.
There are 10 acres of formal gardens and extensive woodlands to explore and you can also use the woodland BBQ. The estate, which is a popular local attraction, also has a small shop, a tea room and a ranger service and is home to the Clan MacMillan Centre. There are lots of local places of interest to visit as well as Glasgow and Loch Lomond, all within easy driving distance.

Within an hour's drive of Finlaystone are many famous golf courses such as Royal Troon, Loch Lomond, Prestwick and Gleneagles and the nearest is just 2 miles away. A wonderful day trip is to take a local ferry to islands such as Bute and the Cumbraes. The world class Ingliston equestrian centre is close by and there are some great walks in the area - you can choose from a gentle stroll to a more energetic climb up the majestic Ben Lomond. Renfrewshire has a varied landscape with wide open moorland covered in heather, rolling green fields, white painted villages and some stunning views.
Glasgow is renowned as a wonderful place to shop but even closer to Finlaystone is Braehead, a shopping centre with a retail park consisting of over 100 stores. Braehead also boasts Xscape for leading-edge fun attractions: you can ski and snowboard on real snow all year, play golf, football and bowling, climb walls and walk in the air in any kind of weather. You can take the train to Glasgow and enjoy the world-class art galleries and museums.
Finlaystone is a great base for any trip to the west of Scotland - if you are looking for self-catering near Glasgow then this is perfect!

Minimum stay is 2 days but there is a 45% for a week stay and I offer discounts for shorter stays on request (the system does not enable it automatically).

    A better alternative to busy Glasgow with beautiful gardens, a small zoo, and endless nature walks. The property manager Neil was a pleasure to meet and get to know. The modern conversion of the Estate Barn was comfortable and clean. I would not hesitate for a return visit.

    Three day trip to see Coldplay at Hampden Park. Ideal for Glasgow and surrounding areas. Beautiful country park, exceptionally attentive and helpful host and the 'Barn' we stayed in had everything we could ask for, including a great wet room to shower in.

    The property in itself was lovely and set in peaceful surroundings. However, if you are staying in the family barn be aware that there is another property above and you can hear everything through the ceiling - people walking and talking and if there are children running around then chances of sleep are minimal.

    Lovely, clean, spacious open plan property. Set on Finlaystone estate amongst a few estate properties. Good base for Glasgow and further. Pleasant gardens to wander around during day and tearoom on site, open on weekends. The tea rooms have the most delicious Viennese shortbreads. Can wander around woods after other visitors leave for the day.

    The quality of the accommodation was very good..Due to the time of year of the booking the accommodation was quite cold and we were a little anxious that having the heating on as much as we felt we needed it might incur a large surcharge. In addition, user’s manuals would have been useful for things like the coffee machine ( we didn’t get this to work) and the hob which took some working out . On balance though a thoroughly enjoyable break and would recommend it .
