Our reason for staying in Falkirk was to visit friends and family and whenever we return we will definitely use Oaklands. Andrew was very welcoming and put you at ease from the start. The rooms were clean, comfortable and a decent size. Breakfast was excellent and the breakfast room is grand. Only other comment is that it could be better... More

We really enjoyed our stay at Oaklands! Andrew was a perfect host! The home is well decorated and includes personal touches of family pictures. We had tea in the evening in the living room. The dining room is large and inviting. Andrew prepared a wonderful breakfast. He also went the extra mile to show us where the train station was... More

Initially we chose Oaklands because it was close to Glasgow and Edinburgh and we were delighted with our choice. An easy train trip to both cities mean't an effortless visit. BUT the absolute bonus was what was just around the corner in Laurieston. Just a quick walk and we found ourselves in Calendar Park - stunning home and grounds and... More

Andrew and Helen treat you like family when they welcome you into their home. And what a home! An Edwardian villa that provides comfortable, spacious rooms and is tastefully decorated throughout. The shower room was quite small but was well equipped and yes, you can hear the plumbing but its only a minor disturbance. The guest's lounge looked lovely, though... More

My husband and I stayed at this guest house as part of our honeymoon in Scotland. We chose the location due to it's proximity to the Falkirk Wheel. The house itself is tucked behind a privacy wall on a semi-busy street, but there is parking, albeit slightly tight. Look carefully or you might miss the drive. The location, at least... More

We stayed at Oaklands B & B for one night on the way up to St Andrews as we wanted to visit the Falkirk Wheel. We found Oaklands a very stylish, comfortable home from home. The Blue themed en suite bedroom was perfect for our needs, and guests have use of a big cosy lounge filled with very interesting arty... More

We only had one quick night at Oaklands, but found it very nicely furnished with a super host who did everything necessary for us to be comfortable. The rooms were medium-large, the bath quite usable, the views into the garden nice. The house is wonderfully decorated with photos (many taken by the host) and has a very nice sitting room... More
