The Accommodation

Sleeps 4 adults and 2 children.

Brand-new, open-plan, ground-floor cottage with all facilities in wild and unspoilt location overlooking the two lochs of Balquhidder glen. Situated in the heart of Rob Roy Country in the new Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. It is close to a stone circle, remote hill-tops and deserted lochside beaches. Ideal for boating, fishing, walking, cycling, watching wild-life, any kind of inspiration and/or just relaxing.
On a working farm. 

Tariff

The price per week ranges from £250 to £490, depending on season.

Rob Roy and Mary MacGregor lived at Monachyle Tuarach when they were newly married and Mary and their children lived here for the period while Rob Roy was an outlaw on the run from the redcoats. When he could he joined his family here clandestinely.   Later, once he was pardoned,  they all moved house further up Balquidder Glen to Inverlochlarig near Invernenty.

Access

• Vehicle access to Monachyle Tuarach is from the east end of Loch Voil by a 3.8 mile farm track. Typically of many farm tracks in this area, it is more suited to 4x4 vehicles but unless your ground clearance is very low a careful driver should have few problems. The owner uses this track constantly in a 'Fiesta'.

OR ALTERNATIVELY

• We can arrange for you to leave your vehicle at Monachyle (on the other side of the loch ) and we can collect you by boat for the very short trip over the beautiful (and usually calm) Monachyle Narrows - the narrow waterway between Lochs Voil and Doine.
