"Well, first of all...the gentle man with bald headed seems like he has no clue what he wants to do. On a Saturday evening, thought it would be busy but it was literally just us. This guy seemed no interest in taking order,not even a glass of water was served..bald headed guy was in his phone.. Food We order couple of dishes from starters to main... ordered chicken pakora which seems to bit old. It's had some sort of smell. Fish pakora that smelled really bad with no taste, had to keep them aside. Chicke tikka...would say not too bad,but could have been cooked a bit more. Main Butter chicken, Bhuna, South Indian. Would not blame the efforts that has put on. Would not say this was best but edible. Asked for couple of chapatis extra, here come bald headed guy..he wasn't really happy when we asked for. Initially we order 6 and then 2 extra.. surprisingly chapatis where on tables within seconds. We asked for some extra rice which was served really really Scottish cold. Even after ages siting here water still not served. I believe that is something to be given to everyone even if someone don't ask for it. BASICS. We could see this guy drinking beer form them bar. Well that defines he might be owner. He could have waited us to leave and could have enjoyed his chilled beer. BASIC MANNERS. Check seemed fishy. Over priced. Almost 5£. We did check with him he said it's the new prices. Which was not so clear, cos menu shows a different prices. We don't mind tipping someone for a good food/service. Unfortunately they had non of it. ASIAN BEWARE, YOU MIGHT GET SCAMMED HERE."

"We stayed here for 3 nights recently. This was our first visit to Callander Meadows but most certainly won’t be our last. It is fantastic! The owners – Nick and Susannah – were most welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Dog friendly was important to us and again, our pet pooch was also made to feel welcome, particularly as the owners also have a Spaniel (Fergus). Our room was spotlessly clean and it was quite novel to sleep in a four-poster bed. It was a good size room and had everything we needed for our stay. The breakfast was superb – good choice and plenty of it! Dinner is available Wednesday-Saturday but we weren’t able to sample the delights of their menu as we didn’t want to leave the dog in the bedroom and opted instead to dine in local restaurants (the Crown and The Waverley in Callander and The Forth Inn Aberfoyle, all of which are dog friendly and serve good food at reasonable prices). We used the Guest Lounge at night and also after breakfast as we were able to bring the dog down and enjoy a leisurely coffee before heading out. There are a number of parking options. There’s a gate to the left of the property and we were told we could use this, although there’s a bit of a slope down to it. You can stop here (in front of the gate) to drop off luggage etc. We parked on the main road outside the property which is free of charge – but there are times when there are no spaces. There are a couple of pay car parks nearby (Callander Meadows is very close) which charge from 8.45 – 5.30 (I think) and the cost is £2 or £3. Only once we had to park here overnight (no charge) and move the car to the main road before 8.45. Callander is a lovely place and ideal for walkers and cyclists in particular. The fact that Callander Meadows was like a deluxe home from home was just the icing on the cake! Highly recommended!"
