We had a great stay at the apartment in Bridge of Allam! It was very comfortable and cozy, and the location was convenient. The only downside was the need for a car, and we missed having a coffee maker. Overall, it was clean and comfortable.

Fantastic holiday starts if you have accommodation rated as a 5 star as The Allan stream apartment . Everything was up to standard and as described. Location was very good also although a car is recommended.
Surely recommend this place.
Thanks

We chose Allanstream as we wanted to be within walking distance of the village centre and the university and it is ideal for this (a bit further from the station though, if that is important to you). It was spotlessly clean and well equipped with all basic essential (including tea, coffee, sugar and fresh milk) which made things very straightforward. The location is very quiet, despite there being several flats in the building. A few little niggles (e.g. instructions not quite up to date), but pretty much faultless!

In many ways the apartment was very good: it was spacious, clean, the bed and linen were of good quality. The Wi-Fi was excellent! The surrounding area was very pleasant.
However, a few items could be improved to match the above qualities:
the cutlery and kitchen knives were basic; the bathroom basin plug didn’t work; there should be cushions on the sofas. The steps down to the apartment were not good enough for anyone with mobility issues. Given the unseasonal chilly weather, we found the apartment a little chilly, despite the radiators being on.
Liaison with the property agent was good, which was useful in that the instructions were in several aspects out of date and rather misleading. I understand these are being updated.

Flat was situated on a quiet street, a short walk from the main road. A pleasant stay but beds could have been more comfortable.

The spacious and comfortable apartment is conveniently situated in a very pleasant
area of Bridge of Allan. We really liked that there is lots to do without driving.
The train station with connection to Glasgow and Edinburgh is within walking distance.
Also there is walking in the nearby Ochils, to the Wallace monument etc. With a car
you can easily get to the Trossachs, Ben Ledi etc.

We stayed for 6 nights in this comfortable basement 2 bedroomed apartment. Very quiet. Off rd parking.
Perhaps needs a bit of TLC and a lick of paint in places. Very helpful lady called Carol at the management company sorted out a couple of minor problems.
A pleasant stay...and the sun shone too.

Stayed here for 7 weeks while my house was renovated following a flood in the loft which brought down 4 ceilings. The apartment was cosy, comfortable, spacious and with lots of storage space. Despite the fact that it's a garden apartment, the huge windows let in loads of light and beautiful skyscapes.. Hugely comfortable king & super king beds.. thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

The accommodation was excellent and very comfortable. The beds were very comfortable and, as someone who finds it hard to sleep in strange beds, I had no problems dropping off quickly. The house was very well equipped for our week. Cutlery, crockery etc... all there. Tea and coffee facilities were adequate. And the kitchen was fitted out with every mod con needed.

The house was comfortable and clean and very accommodating for our needs. We needed access to the University Campus, and being only a 15 min walk way it was ideal.

The surrounding area was very quiet and quite luxurious. So walking home late at night was never a problem. Safe feeling area indeed.

Overall a lovely experience. We had a couple of issues regarding the bathroom which were never resolved during our stay (shower not very hot, bath not draining properly and some fixture and fittings not a fixed to the wall properly), but overall our stay was extremely comfortable and pleasant. I’d definitely stay again and would recommend to friends and colleagues.

We had a wonderful stay right from when we walked into the lovely warm apartment and saw the flowers on the dining room table. The place was very well equipped and had everything we needed. We appreciated the way two of your employees persevered with communication when we lost one of the email attachments. It was a great clean apartment in a wonderful and convenient spot.

We had a lovely time here, the apartment was spacious, clean, warm, quiet and within easy reach of all the local landmarks, Edinburgh and Stirling. The flowers, milk, tea and coffee were a welcome surprise after a long drive. The large beds and good quality bedding unexpected. We would certainly stay here again!

We had a great time, lovely house, beautiful neighbourhood, woods behind te house, close to a co-op for our groceries and all that is nice with a one-year-old! Stunning walking paths in the highlands after a short car drive. Bit disapointed that the fireplace wasn't working, but nevertheless a great holiday! Thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are glad that you found Allan Stream Apartment to be comfortable and well equipped, however we are disappointed to hear that you felt our service was lacking and scored us as a 2. We pride ourselves in giving great service and making sure the stay of our guests is as comfortable as possible. We were unaware of any issues you had in this regard, as any communication you had with us during your stay was answered quickly and you did not raise any concerns at the time. We do not offer serviced apartments, and do not understand your comment about being 'really Self Catered'. We advertise as self catered properties and that is what we offer. We would have been happy to meet with you on departure had you requested this. The apartment is advertised as a 'lower garden conversion of a Victorian villa' and there is no mention of views from the windows. We also include a welcome folder with information on local attractions and places to eat, in addition to an email sent prior to your arrival which contains details of events happening during your stay.

Tranquility and comfort for Stirling

Maybe you improve the entrance stairs to the house and a little back garden.

Many thanks for taking the time to leave us a reply. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Allanvale and found everything you needed in the apartment. We always make sure the steps down to the front door are brushed before each guest arrives, but sometimes due to the amount of foliage in the immediate area, more leaves can find their way back to the steps! Thanks for your observation, and we will pay attention to this on our next visit.

Myself, wife and daughter stayed in the Allan stream apartment for our son’s graduation from Stirling. This is a fantastic two-bedroom flat that is beautifully and thoughtfully presented. We arrived in a rainstorm and found the flat gloriously warm and welcoming. The addition of milk in the fridge with tea bags and sugar made this tea addicted family even happier. The flat is in a fantastic position on a lovely quiet road within easy reach of local pubs, restaurants and shops and it’s a pity we only discovered this gem of a holiday let at his graduation.

We enjoyed the comfort of this apartment. It was an excellent base for visiting Stirling, the Trossachs, Glencoe, Fort William, Pitlochry and Fife. Bridge of Allan is a quiet town away from the busyness of major cities with good road connections. We found that correspondence with Stirling Self Catering was extremely efficient. We had a wonderful time in this area of Scotland and would certainly rent this apartment again if we are in the area.

Allan Stream Apartment was ideally located to reach all of the tourist attractions we wanted to visit. The apartment was spotless and very comfortable and welcoming. Bed linen and towels were all supplied as well as some household things to start you off not to mention some tea,coffee,milk and shortbread for a welcome cuppa! I would definitely consider staying there again and would recommend it to others absolutely.
