Wedding weekend- Rating 5/5
I booked knowe Guest house some time ago for a wedding which was easy to do and a request emailed over and noted.We drove up from The Wirral on a busy bank holiday Friday and got stuck in traffic, I called the guest house to make them aware incase they thought we wasn’t arriving, Dion asked us if we needed anywhere booking for food as he knew it was getting really late which I thought was very thoughtful.On arrival we was given a warm welcome and a thorough brief on our room and our stay. Our room was spotless and had the most spectacular view.The guest house is set off a little from the Main Street which worked out brilliant as it was quiet but minutes away from being able to partake in evening shannanigans with the other wedding guests.Breakfast was fresh and plentiful.We would love to return and do some walking and sightseeing and this guest house would be our first choice for accommodation.Thankyou for our lovely stay

Perfect in every way. Our visit started with a request to park early so we could enjoy a bike ride from Callander, this was responded to very promptly with no issues at all. On arrival Deon welcomed us both and showed us around. The whole check in process flowed very well, our room was very spacious and had everything from a good selection of tea and coffee, a fridge and all the bathroom toiletries required. The bed was very comfortable, there was a sofa, tv, black out blind and an easy to control radiator. Breakfast had a lovely selection and great quality and quantity. Laura and Deon were both very welcoming and we will definitely return to complete some more bike rides in the area. Thanks to them both for making our stay a great one.

Lovely Stay - Rating 5/5
After deciding to take a break in the Callander area, we looked for a Guest House where we felt that we would get a more personal service than at a larger hotel.We were not disappointed.From straightforward arrival help, providing advice on where to go and what to do, and booking a table in a local pub for dinner on our first night, Deon and Laura could not have been more helpful.The room was really well appointed with separate sitting and bedroom areas, tea and coffee facilities and a fridge with chilled water, it was just right.Breakfast provided a good deal of options, with cooked breakfasts freshly prepared with good local produce.And, all of this is on the back of keeping on top of good systems to minimise the risk of Covid.All in all, a super guest house with great hosts - we would certainly try to book again if we come back to the area for another break.

Have just returned from a three night stay at the Knowe guest house! Our room was lovely it had a separate sitting area and also had a small fridge which was great to keep you drinks cool. The views from our room over Callander were stunning ! Deon and Laura were excellent hosts very friendly and informative regarding restaurants and walks etc. We originally were staying for two nights but decided to stay another night due to having such a lovely time and weather being excellent. It was short notice but Laura and Deon arranged a room for us for an additional night (many thanks)! You chose your breakfast the night before and there was a good choice! This was our first stay at the Knowe but it certainly won't be our last ! Would highly recommend staying here ! Looking forward to our next visit!

The room was spacious, with a separate sitting area. Everything throughout the property was spotlessly clean and tastefully presented. The breakfast was simply excellent. Deon and Laura are excellent hosts; nothing was too much trouble. The property is located in a quiet street on a hill overlooking Callander, but the town centre is only a few minutes walk away. We only stayed one night, but we would have been happy to stay longer. We highly recommend The Knowe Guest House.

The house was well organised, spotlessly clean and Covid aware. We had a superb view from our room over Callander and the mountains beyond. The breakfast each day was hot, tasty, and well presented.

This is our third vist to the Knowe Guest House. Each time we stay a little longer. The B&B is very comfortable and clean and the breakfast is excellent. Our 7 day stay was so relaxing. Callander is a great location - there is sufficient to do locally but it is also possible to go out on day trips as many great sites are not too far away. Plus the surrounding mountains and woodlands make for great views.Deon and Laura are excellent hosts. They are interested in what you have planned for the day and always offer useful suggestions and ideas on things to do and see.We look forward to our next visit.

Gem of a place. Touring Scotland and had a one night stay but would gladly have stayed longer. The nicestB & B on our trip. Room was spacious with a lovely bathroom and all comforts.

Seven Night Stay in Callander - Rating 5/5
Right, straight to the point.Don't just look at the Knowe Guest House. GET IT BOOKED.You definitely wont regret it.In early October, 2020, we booked a seven night stay here, and decided on the Sunrise Room, as recommended by Laura for an extended stay.Not only did the Sunrise room have an en-suite bedroom, with shower, but an additional separate lounge, fitted with a TV, small fridge, a settee, tea and coffee facilities and a dressing unit. Everywhere is spotlessly clean.Deon and Laura are perfect hosts. Extremely helpful, and non intrusive.Our visit was during new covid regulations. There was ample hand gel, stationed around, and tables were spread out in the dining room. Everything was considered and adhered to.Breakfasts are superb,choices of cereals, fruit, yogurt, then a choice of a full breakfast, porridge, or eggs etc. on toast. All cooked to perfection.Arnie is not usually a porridge fan, but he chose that option on 3 mornings.The decor throughout the Guest House is pure quality. Carpets, window curtains, ornaments, pictures are all top notch.June found our bed in the Sunrise room "..the comfiest bed ever."Callander is a good area to stay, allowing access to all areas of interest in and around the Trossachs.Deon went the extra mile, suggesting places to visit, places to eat, even ringing up tourist attractions to enquire availability on our behalf.We will be returning to the area in 2021. There is only one place to consider staying - The Knowe Guest House.

The owners (Dion and Laura) were most attentive and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. They had made modifications due to the current pandemic and we felt very safe as a result.The breakfast was plentiful and beautifully cooked.As my partner prefers decaf coffee and none was available in the room, Dion bought the specific brand he requested especially.The room was very comfortable and clean. We had a lovely view through large windows which opened fully to allow a fresh breeze.There was a good electric shower with instant hot water and decent pressure...exactly what you need after hiking. The location was great - walking distance to the High Street, the Callander Crags and the Bracklinn falls.There was also a lounge in the guest house but we didn't use it as we had comfortable chairs in our room.Dion and Laura were full of suggestions for good places to visit and to eat and offered to help us book places. We followed many of their recommendations and had a great time.

We stayed in the "Woodlands" room and it was comfortable and clean with a beautiful view of the woods behind the guest house. It is an ideal base for exploring the Trossachs and Scotland at its best.

A wonderful stay - Rating 5/5
The Knowe is realy a place I would advise to anybody who wants to visit Callander. The owners are very welcoming ans are at your service as soon as you arrive. The service is like in a good hotel but you feel at home. The house is warmly decorated and soooo british (sorry, scottish). Our room was perfectly clean; spacious and well equiped. The owners can give you very good advises about the places to visit or the pubs and restaurants. We'll visit Callander again next year and we'll go back to The Knowe (if rooms are available).

Perfectly Pampered - Rating 5/5
---LocationThe guesthouse is situated on the highest street in Callander on the hill, parallel to the main street. A few minutes walk away there's a road higher up onto the hill, towards the Bracklinn Falls area. There are many footpaths and bike paths nearby. Within a 30-45 minutes drive by car there is lots of cultural entertainment.---Guesthouse & room "Greenwood"The Guesthouse has four guest rooms on the top floor. Downstairs has partly private rooms, a shared sitting room (which we didn't use, but looked comfortable and nicely decorated) and a breakfast room.We stayed in the room called "Greenwood". It's a very spacious room, beautifully decorated, very clean, with a gorgeous, recently renovated bathroom. The bed is comfortable, not too soft, not too hard. There is a little sitting area and also a small desk in another corner of the room with enough power outlets (usb even) to work on your laptop while recharging devices. There's also a large cupboard to hang clothes.The Greenwood room is situated towards the back of the house, away from the street, with a view on the garden and with all that is very quiet.---HostsDeon and Laura are super caring, sweet, and knowledgeable when it comes to whatever you wish to know about the area, where to eat, what to do, how to get there. And if they don't happen to know something, they make a great effort of getting the information you're looking for. Just ask them!---FoodBreakfast is included. The hosts ask you to fill out a little form in the evening with extra cooked options for breakfast. The basics like cereals, milk, yoghurt, juice, coffee, tea are always there. Be sure to ask for plant-based milk or other non-standard things if you need. The hosts will certainly try their best to give you the best breakfast experience.---Would I go there again?Absolutely! Without a doubt, if we were to visit this area again, we will not think twice and just book the Greenwood room at Deon and Laura's again.

The welcome we recieved upon our arrival was friendly, courtious and informative as was our departure the following morning after a true scottish hearty fry-up. The breakfast options were plentiful with other members of our group choosing the porridge and poached eggs on toast with unlimited tea/coffeee and toast and jam available. We stayed in the Gardens room which had fantastic views of the surrounding mountains and had a very comfortable bed. The young couple running the guest house deserve nothing but the highest praise for running such a beautiful place and for their freindliness and welcome. We would definitely stay here again

This is a gem of a place, rooms are superb and all en suite - Rating 5/5
The welcome and introduction were really friendly and helpful, my surprise was the ensuite bathroom in a really large room with lovely peaceful forest views (with wildlife thrown in!) to the rear.Right in the centre of Callander behind the church overlooking the whole valley, the owners showed me the front rooms too with breathtaking views.Couple of hundred yards to food and liquid refreshment on Main Street Callander.Both of the owners have travelled the world on cruise liners - and the attention to detail in the fixtures and finish of this guesthouse reflect this.I felt like taking my shoes off as I walked in, so plush was the hallway carpet.Breakfast seemed to whatever you wanted with the continental side available a,t morning dining, must comment on the juices which must have been of the natural and pressed kind, as the taste showed.Multi national guests, all seemed to love the place and stayed for many consecutive nights, so you might struggle to get a booking at times so book early.Definitely hats off to Deon and Laura who have got it spot on, I couldn't fault it, my partner and I will be back very soon for a leisure break instead of the business trip I was on.A real find.Just hope this review doesn't stop me getting a booking when I need it!Loved it.Kenny

Superb B&B to Include in One\'s Travels Throughout Scotland - Rating 5/5
Everything about our stay at the Knowe Guest House in scenic Callander was excellent and above our expectations.It was one of the very best B&B's we have ever stayed in and the Host and Hostess, Ashley and Ray both went above and beyond when we encountered a worrisome car issue and a delay in our travels.But the positives most definitely overshadowed this glitch in our travels and we couldn't have picked a better spot to be while we waited out the uncertainty.I guess it was fate to have stayed here.The room was most definitely very spacious, bright, cheary and so well appointed in every way possible.They thought of everything to meet the needs of their guests.We had a large bay window overlooking the town from a hillside location.The breakfast was fabulous with a terrific presentation in a large dining room and very large table.We needed to have breakfast earlier then their scheduled time to tend to our car issue, and, they both accommodated our needs without reservation, serving up the most delicious breakfast with an array of foods to include very fresh fruits.We were more than appreciative of their extra efforts on our behalf.Both Ashley and Ray are very seasoned in running an accommodation business over the years and this is translated into running a top notch service for all their guests in this B&B that showed.Ashley even charged my phone with her own charger while we waited for our car service from Glasgow!Such personalized service that just adds to a very memorable and positive stay.Staying at The Knowe Guest House has been a terrific and memorable experience for us and we rank it one of the very best overall in all our travels.Callander was a terrific place to have stayed, since it is only an hour north of Glasgow Airport upon our arrival and an alternative to staying in Sterling to the East, while close to continue our journey around Loch Lomond and onward towards Oban.We give the Knowe Guest House a two thumbs up.OSCAR!

Absolutely Lovely - Rating 5/5
A well maintained home away from home situated on a hill overlooking Callander and the surrounding mountainside.A short walk to the main street, where there is not an eatery with a bad name or reputation.Our hosts were extremely kind, and polite, with a great local knowledge.Room costs were great value, and without a doubt, next time we are working in the area, we shall be back.Six stars out of Five!!

Knowe Guest House review - Rating 5/5
Lovely Guest House, very friendly, great breakfast, large comfortable and warm room(with ensuite)with superb views over Calendar and the hills. Sky TV a bonus. A plus was a ground floor residents lounge and plenty of off street parking. Definitely somewhere to go back to.

Great find! - Rating 4/5
For a group of rowers arriving at the end of a long day on the water in wind, rain and shine, the welcome and comfort of The Knowe was just what was required. Spacious, comfortable, well presented rooms.Fab views. Yummy breakfast. Lovely hosts.

Nice place- Rating 4/5
it's a guest house very near Callander center but enough far from the noise of the main street.. A quite place managed by a nice couple. Pretty room, quite clean;good breakfast shared in a big table with the other guests.5£ Less was the right price.
