• "Had a fantastic week here celebrating my birthday."

  The accommodation was everything it was stated and extremely comfortable. Alan provided all information and we only had to contact him regarding the whereabouts the fireplace remote control. We were very fortunate with the weather and every night was star watching in the hot tub. lovely walks all around and a meal to die for in the Achray House. Not really sure whats going on with the Four Seasons!!!!.... Absolute pleasure to stay here...

  Thank you for the great review Peter. It’s such a fabulous dark sky site isn’t it? You were great guests and left the lodge so very clean and tidy. You’re welcome back anytime Property Owner

• "We stayed here for a long weekend at the end of August."

  Thankfully had some lovely weather only raining badly on the morning we left. Alan was excellent at looking after us before we arrived and during the stay, always ready to answer with advice and info. Of all the lodges on the site, this one has the best view, it is perfectly situated. It has everything you need and is well presented with the hot tub a bonus. We all really enjoyed our stay including our springer spaniel Max who loved sitting out on the decking soaking up the view, as well as the plentiful walks in the area. Would recommend this 100% to anyone looking for a lovely relaxing holiday.

  Thank you for the review Darren. We spent a while pondering about which plot had the best view. I’m delighted you agree with us Property Owner

• "We had a fantastic Monday to Friday stay in the lodge."

  Very modern interior and comfortable for a family of four. Kitchen was well supplied with all the amenities, making all the more convenient. Jacuzzi was a fab in the evenings with a stunning view across the valley. Great location for short hikes or a trips day trips in car to nearby beauty spots and villages such as Killin. Will hopefully return next year:)

• "Red Kite Lodge is obviously not a lodge in most people’s sense."

  What it is, is a really well specced static/mobile home. Comfortable beds, excellent living area, well stocked kitchen (we didn’t use the washing machine, but good to know it was there), excellent hot tub and to top it all an amazing view. St Fillans is really well placed to access numerous local towns where there’s activities for everyone. We did paddle boarding on the loch, walked two different well developed cycle/walking tracks that have been developed from disused rail lines. Being dog friendly was icing on the cake. We stayed for a week and had a really relaxing time. Would highly recommend.

  Thanks for the great feedback Andrew. The view is rather spectacular isn’t it? You’re welcome back anytime Property Owner

Brilliant location central to lots of great places to visit. Alan and Debra are on hand if you need anything, super helpful. Izzy the dog loved it too. We look forward to staying again.

• "The caravan was beautiful and superbly kitted out, with lots of extras you would not expect like games, DVD's & binoculars to look at the fantastic views."

  The hot tub was excellent and positioned so the views could be enjoyed whilst in it. There was a minor issue with the hot water on our final day but it did not ruin what was a fantastic break. The only negative was the spotty phone signal, but the WiFi was excellent. I would recommend the Red Kite lodge if you want a peaceful, relaxed getaway in comfort.

  Thank you for your great review Frank. I had to get binoculars as the wildlife and night sky views are amazing. The mobile phone signal is a problem but you can easily use WhatsApp and Facebook to make audio/FaceTime calls through the Wi-Fi at the lodge. Apparently the only decent network for the village so far is EE. Thank you for leaving the lodge so clean and tidy. Haste ye back Property Owner

  Also Alan’s information was excellent and very informative with various tips etc.

  Thank you so much for a great review Douglas. When we set the lodge up we thought about what we always found helpful on our many self catering holidays, so it’s heartening to get this recognised. Haste ye back Property Owner

• "Very comfortable and well equipped lodge with absolutely stunning views."

  We made good use of the hot tub every day to my young daughter’s delight: “this is the life!”. Friendly and responsive owners who gave us excellent tips. Short walk from the village shop which has great coffee and soup, and a play park nearby. Saw red squirrels, deer and a hare. Building work is ongoing as noted in the listing but we weren’t particularly bothered by noise. So much to do nearby, would love to come back and explore further!

  Thank you for the wonderful feedback Sarah. I’m so happy we got to meet you and your beautiful daughter. Property Owner

• "A lovely relaxing week at the lodge."

  Lodge was well equipped and was great to relax in the hot tub after the days adventures, with the lovely surroundings. Owners were friendly and in touch to welcome and with suggestions aswell as being on hand if there were issues. Building work still ongoing, however didn’t bother us or the fact that a lot of cabins were unoccupied as it made for a nice quiet break.

  I’m glad you enjoyed your stay Ray. You marked us down on facilities and accuracy of the listing and I’m wondering what I have missing from the lodge or the listing on Sykes? Could you drop us a text with suggestions please? Property Owner

  Perfect place to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery yet plenty of walks locally to suit all abilities. Our daughter and teenage granddaughter joined us this visit and they loved it too. From relaxing in the hot tub to a strenuous hilly walk and strolling alongside Loch Earn I highly recommend Red Kite Lodge it really has all you’ll need and is a home from home.

  Lovely property, well stocked, beautiful location, the only thing that let's it down is first impression, the side we stayed at looked like a building site but once u get pasted that the area is fantastic

  Hi Stuart, thanks for your comments on the lodge. We noted the fact that the lodge park is a work in progress, in our description and that once you’re in the lodge you can’t see any of the other lodges being built. We are in constant contact with the site owners who do strive to keep the building work to a minimum and no work at all is done on weekends. I’m glad this didn’t spoil your holiday. Property Owner

• "Had a lovely week at Red Kite Lodge."

  The kitchen is very well equipped and the lodge is very modern. The double bedroom is a great size. The decking has a gate so dog can wander freely, which is superb. The hot tub is lovely with stunning views, very peaceful. We were visited by deer a couple of evenings. The site itself is still under construction, but once in the lodge you forget about that and the decking faces stunning views. Will book again in the future.

  Thanks for the review Wendy. I’m glad you enjoyed the view, it really is special Property Owner

• "Our first time renting a lodge and it was perfect."

  We read reviews that the site was under development, but so what, that wasn't a problem for us. The Location is stunning and we enjoyed walking the dog to the Loch every morning and taking in the tranquility. The surrounding wildlife was amazing, we were so excited to see red squirrels in their natural habitat. The lodge itself was very well equipped and comfortable. We couldn't have asked for better getaway.

• "The area Crieff and the actual cabin were very nice, well equipped and the owner was very helpful and couldn’t do enough for us."

  However we were disappointed to find the plot was still a building site with only our cabin occupied. Although this may have worked in our favour as the cabin next to us was very close (especially if you wanted to relax in the hot tub without being over looked). Unfortunately we could only use the hot tub once, as it was slightly off colour with a funny smell. We did follow the instructions on two occasions to add the chemicals but it didn’t seem to clear up. The oven and dishwasher tripped whilst we were there and again no fault of the owner as we believe it may have been linked to the ongoing work on site. The owner couldn’t have done more to help and was in contact with the site manager throughout to get the problem sorted. I feel the property has good potential but we were a little disappointed with the ongoing work and the hot tub.

  Dear Kelly, We do appreciate your feedback and we were aware of the issues related to the electrical supply. We are sorry you experienced problems with the hot tub. Had we known we would have taken immediate measures to resolve this in person. As you note, the site is still under development ; we are sorry this detracted from your enjoyment but we do hope you will visit again once the site has been fully completed.

• "Could not fault the property itself but i think the site is not ready for paying guests as still looks like a building site."

  Also we has two small dogs and one of them jumped of the side of the decking at the hot tub as nothing to stop them they needed chained up all the time. Lodge great. Views great. Site was building site

  Hi Thomas thanks for your feedback. We’re happy that you found the lodge faultless and we do agree that the views are rather special. We’re sorry about the ongoing site development; this phase of the park was meant to be finished by now. The ‘building’ work relates to decking and servicing for recently delivered lodges and there should be no work ongoing in the evening. The site owners know of our frustration and would be happy for anyone to speak to them about any issues. We are supplying them with feedback. We have tried to ensure our Sykes description is accurate though we are in fact advertising our lodge rather than the park. We appreciate that you want be able to relax on the decking with the dogs beside you. The gap at the decking allows direct access to the hot tub which most guests find desirable. However we will look for some solutions. Property Owner

• "Had a wonderful time at lodge."

  It is extremely well kitted out and very comfortable. View from decking and hot tub are great and an ideal way to relax after days walking. The lodge is part of a larger site and there is ongoing works to fit out other lodges which we were not aware of until we arrived. The work did not interfere with our holiday or enjoyment at all however I feel it should be mentioned at time of our booking.

  You’re right Caroline and I was assured by Sykes it would be mentioned. The site was meant to be finished early this year but due to supply chain issues there has been several setbacks. Thanks for flagging this up and I’m glad you enjoyed the views Property Owner
