Yes you can, it is delicious. Our water is spring fed and it’s delicious. It has gone through a filtration system and is safe to drink. Occasionally it can be a bit brown due to the peat on the hill. We try our hardest to limit single use plastic so if you can please don’t bring bottled water.
We provide one generous basket of firewood plus a basket of kindling, matches and firelighters. Extra baskets can be purchased from us for £10 a basket and bags of kindling are sold in various shops in Callander, the cheapest being Tesco.
