Welcome

Set amid the beautiful Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park, Tigh a' Mhaide sits between Lochs Venachar and Achray in the village of Brig o' Turk and is an ideal base for touring the area. Gentle lochside, woodland and hill routes start from the door while longer, more challenging hills and trails are nearby. Tigh a' Mhaide accommodates up to four people, in two upstairs, en-suite bedrooms, configured either as two doubles or as a double and a twin. Downstairs an open plan living/dining room and kitchen lead off a practical slate-floored hall and are well equipped for relaxing or cooking, while the fully-tiled wet room makes light work of cleaning up after a day on the trail.
