High standard of accommodation/service.
Not easy to find initially but got there, phoned proprietor and he was helpful.
Room was superb, as was adjoining bathroom. TV was also SkyQ which I hadn’t got anywhere all that summer when hiking. Also made me food when I arrived out-with dining hours.

Lovely little B+B. The room was lovely, very clean and Alister couldn’t have been more helpful. Just what you need after a day in the hills. Will definitely return.

At home feel, clean, comfortable & great breakfast
Lovely place, comfy bed, good wifi throughout, ideally placed for Loch Earn. I had been wild camping at the Loch for 3 nights so was looking forward to a nice shower and some heat after 3 nights/days of downpours and more of less constant rain. With another 3 nights of wild camping ahead after my stay the excellent breakfast set me up nicely, full Scottish with bacon, egg, tattie scone, haggis, square sausage, black pudding, beans, toast, croissant, fresh orange or apple juice, filter coffee plus a range of yogurts, cereals and fresh fruit. With Sky TV in the room and an excellent wifi connection is also great if like me you are just looking for somewhere to chill and relax but would be great if you had to catch up on any work etc, only issue I had was the owner's had literally just had Sky Q installed about a week before my stay and it dropped out a few times but Alistair was really helpful getting it sorted out. Although located on the main road the double glazed windows and think curtains keep out the noise and light if you are looking for to sleep in and last sitting for breakfast was 10am, highly recommend and suitable for a wide range of travellers from stop overs to longer stays for local hill walking, mountain biking or fishing.

Lovely night's stay
We had a great stay for one night over a weekend out hill walking. Our bed was huge and the whole room was very comfortable, with a lovely new bathroom with views out over the hills. Location was excellent and we had a really warm welcome. We would definitely stay here again.

On top of the Golden Larches.
Rooms are above the restaurant. Quiet since they quit serving food at 7 pm. We went down the road to Mhor 84. Good food and had some live entertainment. Rooms are along the road but not much traffic going by. Lots of space but stairs to climb.

Great!
We loved everything about The Golden Larches - the setting, the supper, the bed, the breakfast, chatting with the owner and the iced ginger cake for the road! Thanks Alistair for the great directions - we had a lovely day driving through the park and seeing Loch Lomond AND we made the ferry! Come see us in Colorado. Mary

Nice room
Enjoyed our stay, nice room & location. Would happily go back. Only issue was lack of spare toilet roll and the beds were set up as singles for a couple.
