Sightseeing

Set in the Helix park, these amazing equine sculptures are well worth a visit. The attention to detail is quite incredible. Why not take a tour, taking you inside the sculptures and marvel at the amazing engineering involved in bringing this project together. A fairly recent addition is a visitors centre, where you can pick up some souvenirs and have a bite to eat. There's a great park for the kids to play in too.

Stirling Castle is one of Scotland’s grandest castles due to its imposing position and impressive architecture. The Scenery will take your breath away! So close to our apartments at Woolcarders Court, you can see the castle from the bottom of the road. With the option of a guided or audio tour of the castle, there's also a lovely gift shop and cafe. There's loads of events held here throughout the year too.

On the grounds below Stirling castle there is an octagonal stepped, grassy mound which is the King's Knot. Known locally as the Cup and Saucer Around 1630, it was planted with box trees and ornamental hedges and formed part of a magnificent formal gardens. Barges were sailed along a canal which surrounded the garden.

One of Stirling's most distinctive landmarks, celebrating its 150th year (2019) It overlooks the scene of Scotland’s victory at the Battle of Stirling Bridge. The recent addition of a woodcarving trail is designed to take visitors on a journey through time to learn more about Stirling’s fascinating history, from the ice age through to the building of the Monument. Great coffee and gift shop on the premises. Well worth a visit, even just for the views, they are quite breathtaking.

Callander is often described as the gateway to the Highlands. Beautiful town, lots of Scottish shops, if you want some tartan, shortbread or whisky this is the place to go! Not far from Loch Lomond and also the beautiful Trossachs national park. Some of Scotland's most beautiful scenes can be found here with dramatic mountains, wooded glens and lochs to be found around every turn.

With over 350 animals in the safari park, there's plenty talks and displays along with the sea lion presentation, which is definitely worth seeing. There's a small boat ride to Chimp island, fantastic play area for the kids, along with pedalos and the flying fox. There's a cafe onsite but also for something different, there's BBQ areas, if you fancy bringing your own. Fingers crossed for the weather though :)

Cambuskenneth Abbey and Bell Tower are absolute gems, hidden away from the usual tourist crowds, and set in a wonderfully quiet and beautiful location. The Abbey is a ruin, though the outline of the structure is still visible, but the Bell Tower, is still standing and you can go inside. There are many plaques around to tell what each area is believed to have been. it is only open from April to September.
