The sitting room offers a lovely calm space to unwind, with seating and a large wall-mounted Smart TV to enjoy. Access is possible to the seating area outside through the patio door, perfect for throwing open in the warmer months. As sleep calls, head upstairs and select between two cottage-style double bedrooms with both benefiting from zip/link features for flexibility whilst a contemporary bathroom is off the spacious landing for you to get ready in style. Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 14772, together sleeping up to 8 guests.

Stirling is Scotland’s youngest city and yet one that has so much history, specifically Mary Queen of Scots and William Wallace. ‘He who holds Stirling holds Scotland’ was the advice that inspired many famous battles including Bannockburn, and the story of Stirling’s history is evident today in the Old Town, which also boasts family ghost walks and tales from the graveyard. Stirling Castle boasts a superb, dramatic cliff-top location overlooking the city and provides a stunning outlook from its battlements to the mountains, cliffs and winding River Forth snaking away to Edinburgh. The nearby Wallace Monument also offers breathtaking views for those willing to attempt the steps to the top! Stirling is a university town and, as such, has many restaurants, bars and coffee houses as well as extensive shopping facilities. Its central location offers excellent access to Edinburgh, Glasgow and Perth, each less than an hour away by car, while closer to home is the historic, Victorian spa town of Bridge of Allan.

    A great location to visit the attractions in Falkirk and Stirling with Edinburgh a short train ride from Falkirk. Wendy is a lovely host and if you find this cottage available book it.

  • Rainer

    Lots of space, large living room and kitchen, two bedrooms (we just needed one) and lots of peace and quiet. Friendly owners who gave us invaluable advice on how to best get to Edinburgh. We loved our stay there! Just one piece of advice: Try to avoid parking your car under the tree, the birds are most productive.

    Wendy was a great host. Would recommend a stay at this cottage.
