THE KINGS HOUSE HOTEL
This hotel sits just off the main A84(T) road that runs between
nearby
Callander and Lochearnhead, about two miles east of what
you might term the centre of Balquhidder, although Balquhidder
doesn't really have a centre and is very much spread out on the
hilly slopes above the River Balvaig. It's an old inn with a
cosy old bar - The Rob Roy Bar - where you can rest your legs
and warm your toes at the real fire. There's a huge musketty gun
above the fire, antlers, tartan upholstery, and even a wooden
bust of Rob Roy, all of which come together in a mildly
heuchtery-teuchtery but nonetheless fairly pleasant way. There
was no real ale on tap at my visit, although they did have
bottles of Deuchars.
[NOTE - There is also an excellent gift shop beside The Kings
House Hotel, and amongst the many lovely things that you can buy
is a book on The Rob Roy Way.]
