Callander is in a wonderful rural area, so avoiding the centre of town won’t make much difference on money saving, but there are five ways that you can.
#1. Try to avoid the school holidays
Although it is not just the local school holidays you will want to think about. The English school holidays can vary greatly from Scottish ones, especially during the summer and this can result in the area being busy with tourists even though Scottish children are back at school. Avoiding the month of August is a good idea as many people visit Scotland to take in the Edinburgh festival and then extend their trip. This combined with the easy travelling time from Glasgow and Edinburgh to Callander make it an attractive place to visit for tourists during the high season.
#2. Longer visits might benefit from self-catering
There are plenty of self-catering options in and around Callander and Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. Avoiding hotel bar and restaurant bills will save you plenty and you can often get a great deal if you are able to be flexible with the dates of your trip. Owners of the self-catering accommodations sometimes have any gaps between existing bookings that they might give to you at a discount.
#3. Think about planning in advance
If you want to stay in a nice hotel, then you might find that you can pay in advance to save money on your trip. Often room rates paid in advance are excluding breakfast and you can save a few more pennies by going to a cafe around the corner. You might find that by looking at a 3 star rather than a 4 star hotel will be a good bit cheaper but is just as nice. Often hotels have a lower star rating because they are missing amenities such as a swimming pool rather than being less luxurious. There is a selection of budget hotels at different star ratings in the town to give you a chance to save money.
#4. Risk it all for the last minute chance of a deal
Of course, there is a range of b&bs available in and around Callander at a range of star ratings. Bed and breakfasts will usually only offer the one rate for their rooms, but if they have no reservations or a cancellation at the last minute you might be able to get a great deal.
#5. Check often for special offers
One of the best ways to save money on your trip is to check regularly for special offers. Larger hotels will have sales and cheap offers on empty rooms. They are willing to provide deep discounts to fill empty rooms.
