The property benefits from private parking and is situated on the main street running through Callander, conveniently located close to amenities.

Situated on the edge of the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park, Dunmor is an ideal holiday base.

With plenty of reception areas to chill and enjoy you won't be short of space. Alternatively relax in the property's modern and spacious bedrooms, with ensuite facilities.

On the ground floor there is a Games Room for guests to have fun, featuring a pool/snooker table and conversion table tennis top. Alternatively, you can also relax and unwind whilst watching a film from Netflix on the huge 75 inch ambilight wall mounted TV with sound bar. If you seek something quieter, play a board game from one of the selection available. A relaxing Lounge/Dining Room is also on the ground floor which boasts a beautiful solid oak dining table seating 14 guests, sofas and another ambilight TV.

On the mezzanine level there is a master suite at the rear of the house which has a super king sized bed, it's own lounge area with a TV, DVD and Wii games console and separate bath and shower rooms. The suite lounge can be converted from a living space into a 7th bedroom (if used as a lounge this will leave 6 bedrooms available) to sleep a further 2 guests in a single bed and sofa bed if required, taking the maximum guest capacity to 14.

There are a further 5 ensuite bedrooms in the property, one of which is on the ground floor and 4 on the first floor.

Great house and location
We had a great mini break at Dunmor House with family. It is a well maintained, comfortable and well equipped house. There were 14 of us but it didn’t feel in the least crowded. There are numerous sitting areas and it was fantastic that everyone had their own bathroom. The pool table/table tennis table was a great hit with the adults and the mini version games table was a winner with the kids. Loads of garden/conservatory games as well. Amazing view from the conservatory and it was so handy for shops, parks etc. I would highly recommend this property.

Sally's 70th Birthday
Beautiful, spacious property in the heart of the picturesque village of Callander. A weekend for my 70th birthday with my family. There was plenty of room in the house which was so comfortable and cozy. We all made use of the games rooms and garden and thankfully the weather was very kind to us. A great location for a family getaway with plenty of room for us all to enjoy ourselves. Zillah, our host, was so helpful and easily contactable if we needed any help or advice. I would highly recommend this property.

The house is very comfortable with plenty of space to be together or have time out of the buzz. The owner was easy to reach even though we never had any issues. Would definitely recommend this home.

Fantastic weekend away.
This was a weekend stay for 14 family members to celebrate a 70th birthday. This accommodation was brilliant for all ages, from ages 6 to 70, with entertainment for everyone!! The games room was a hit, as was the conservatory with other activities and games. Plenty of rooms for everyone to spread out, and, to be all together! Great communication with the owner. Toiletries provided for all 5 shower rooms and 2 bathrooms, as well as most cleaning items required for the kitchen. A fantastic weekend was had by all. We would do it again!! Thank you.

Large family weekend break
We booked the house for a surprise 70th birthday gathering , with family coming from different parts of the uk it was an ideal midway meeting point . The house is huge! It is tastefully decorated and well equipped with most things. The games room was perfect for the kids and adults alike and we enjoyed many games of pool. We enjoyed the garden games as we were lucky with the weather also. And sitting in the conservatory enjoying the sunshine. We had a very mixed range of ages so having lots of different rooms meant people could spread out and be where they wanted to be. The kitchen is fairly well equipped with large cooker, plenty plates and cutlery pots and pans. Could do with a couple large serving dishes but otherwise perfect. The beds are very comfortable and my husband and I slept better than we do at home! There are lots of comfy sofas around the house also so always room for everyone. The large dining tables were great so everyone could eat together. The garden was a great space, we had a visiting hedgehog on the first night too! The area is lovely. Lots to do and nice pubs, shops- the Mhor Bread shop in the village sells amazing bread and pies. We would definitely return to Callander and this property.

Family holiday
We have just spent a week in Calander staying at Dunmor House. Everyone enjoyed our time away. The house is large enough and easily accommodated our group. With ages ranging from 82 down to 7 there were games, pool table, table tennis and Netflix so something for all ages. The kitchen is very well supplied with everything you need. We would certainly recommend this property. The shops cafes and restaurants are all within walking distance. Owner was quick to reply to any questions we had and on arrival we found a gift of wine and chocolates left for us.

Quirky property, helpful hosts
We really enjoyed our stay at this property, which has a somewhat quirky layout but has lots of space. Bedrooms are on multiple levels, and several family spaces meant plenty of options for kids and adults to do their own thing. Our group would have liked at least one more twin room option (only really one twin) to make rooms work better for family groups but that was just our preference. Kids loved the games room with huge tv and pool/table tennis table! Host was really helpful and messaged us to offer early check in and late check out, which made our holiday much more relaxed and was really appreciated. Great location with easy walking distance to town, park and cycle tracks.

Great Location and Plenty of Space
We had a great time, there were 14 of us along with 2 dogs and house is very spacious so we were not falling over each other. The owners had put toiletries in every room and left us bin bags as well as dish water tablets, the only thing that was missing was maybe some cleaning products to allow us to clean if required. Overall it is a lovely big house in a great location and fantastic for a relaxing few days away
