Beautiful setting and great course
This is a hidden treat, but is definitely a course to seek out. Buchanan Castle Golf Course was designed by famous golf course creator James Braid in 1936. It offers scenic views of surrounding mountains and rivers, giving that quintessential Scottish feel.
Visitors are very welcome here, and can be coached by resident PGA Professionals. This enjoyable course has a few holes running alongside the River Endrick. You can also take a visit to the Pro Shop here to make sure you’re kitted out for the day ahead.

This is a very friendly course and visitors are made most welcome. With a great ladies section and senior section, there is something for everyone. Definitely give Balfron Golf Club a visit when you stay.

‘We spent 1 week in this beautiful cottage and straight away it felt like a home from home. Anne the owner is very friendly and welcoming. The cottage is really pretty and very comfortable (the beds in particular!) it has everything you need including decent wifi and you even get a welcome pack with a few food goodies.
‘We spent a week visiting the area and it’s a perfect base as you are only 20 minutes from places such as Stirling, Balloch etc. We did a day trip to Edinburgh and it only took 1h30 to get there from the cottage. There are local shops available only 5 minutes drive away which is very handy as well as lovely pubs such as the oldest one in Scotland in nearby Drymen.
We highly recommend this cottage in this really beautiful part of Scotland’
