Birchwood Guest Lodge

Balmaha

At the guest house, all rooms have a desk, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom. All guest rooms at Birchwood Guest Lodge come with a seating area.

Glasgow is 33 km from Birchwood Guest Lodge, while Stirling is 42 km from the property. The nearest airport is Glasgow Airport, 42 km from the guest house. The rooms gave out a unique atmosphere of coziness. We liked the unique way the beds were turning from sofas to beds, but we would also love it if they were a little wider. The room was spacious enough, and so was the internal private bathroom. The owners seemed friendly and caring.
