Mansewood Country House

Scenic Country Escape Near Scotland's Music Routes

Modern comfort meets historic charm at Mansewood Country House, a 300-year-old, family-run guesthouse nestled in the heart of the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. Located just outside Lochearnhead and overlooking the serene head of Loch Earn, this 4-star retreat offers cozy, individually decorated rooms with peaceful views, feather down quilts, and all the modern comforts—ideal for winding down after a big night out.

With free WiFi in public areas, an on-site bar, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, Mansewood is a relaxing base for music lovers exploring Scotland’s west coast venues or heading to gigs in Edinburgh, Glasgow, or even Oban—all about an hour’s drive away.

Why Concert-goers love it

While it’s not right in a city center, Mansewood offers something many concert-goers crave: peace and quiet after the show. Just over an hour’s drive from major cities, it’s an ideal stopover for those following a tour or making a weekend out of a concert in the region. The flexible 4:00 PM check-in means you can arrive after a scenic drive, and the peaceful rural setting ensures you’ll sleep soundly—no city noise to interrupt your rest.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a scenic getaway after a gig
• Solo travelers on a bucket-list concert trip
• Couples combining a concert with a romantic rural escape
• Fans needing a quiet spot to recharge post-show
• Budget-conscious music lovers seeking value in a beautiful setting

Food and Drink Options

Start your day right with a hearty breakfast served in a bright room overlooking the garden—perfect after a late night. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the hotel does have its own on-site bar for a relaxed evening drink, and nearby Lochearnhead offers walkable dining options for dinner or snacks.

Nightlife Options

Mansewood is more about peaceful nights under the stars than late-night clubbing. That said, you can enjoy a quiet drink at the hotel’s bar, or take a short drive to nearby villages for traditional pubs with local music on weekends. For bigger nights out, plan your trip around gigs in Glasgow, Edinburgh or Oban—all reachable by car in about an hour.

What People Say

Guests love the warm hospitality from the family-run team, the immaculate rooms with stunning views, and the relaxing, homey feel of the guesthouse. Many reviews mention the excellent breakfast and the peaceful location as standout features—especially for those looking to unwind after a high-energy concert.

Areas for Improvement

Due to its rural setting, the hotel isn’t ideal if you’re relying on public transport or looking to walk to a concert venue. And with no 24-hour front desk, late-night arrivals need to plan ahead. But if you're driving and want to escape the crowds, it's a small trade-off for the charm and calm.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want to recharge in comfort and Scottish countryside charm, Mansewood Country House is a relaxing and scenic choice.
