The Woodside was a very nice hotel in a good location within Doune. My family enjoyed the stay. The rooms are small but clean and comfortable. The restaurant had good food at reasonable prices, and a very good to-order breakfast included in the room price. There is a well-maintained trail loop along the river to Doune a very short walk from the hotel too.

The Woodside was a lovely place to stay! Quaint, clean, quiet, and I loved the bar/restaurant which welcomed us upon arrival. Breakfast was delicious and the waitress was so accommodating and friendly despite us arriving a few minutes late. The staff was so friendly and helpful. Hannah, Fraser, and Lara were lovely to talk to and gave us a lot of helpful information about Scotland and the local area. I would definitely stay again!

Impromptu stay (good weather) so booked at night at the Woodside. On arrival a nice wee bonus to be upgraded. Our room and the other facilities were spotlessly clean, the bed comfy and the shower great. The bar and restaurant both for drinks, dinner and breakfast had excellent choice and beautifully cooked….but what made the Woodside special was the staff….the service was excellent and friendly. Great stay, we’ll be back….with friends in tow.

Great little hotel

We had a very comfortable one night stay at The Woodside. The staff were friendly and efficient and the service was done with a smile. Dinner and breakfast were both excellent. The room was clean and tidy with a comfortable bed. The hotel is in a good location and we were able to walk into town and down to the castle in no time at all. We will definitely return for another stay.

Beautiful property. Comfortable bed. Fantastic shower. (Hey, sometimes the pressure isn't great in a rental!). We had dinner in the onsite bistro and it was magnificent. The only downside was the TV didn't work despite the staff's efforts. The next morning at breakfast we overheard other guests had the same complaint.

Excellent staff, great food, comfortable bed, excellent biscuits etc , quiet. Decent sized bathroom, floor could have been mopped more thoroughly. For a long stay a wardrobe rather than the wall mounted hanging would be required but perfectly OK for a few days.
