Stirling

The county of Stirling is in the central area of Scotland, with the agricultural lowlands to the south and the barren peaks of the Highlands to the north. This contrast of landscape means that the county’s five or so caravan parks are situated to take advantage of a wide range of natural and historic attractions.
Stirling’s Loch Lomond is, after Loch Ness, the most famous of Scotland's lochs. It is the largest fresh water loch in the UK and is up to 600 feet deep. There are 38 Islands on Loch Lomond, perfect for mobile home holidaymakers to explore. For log cabin and static caravan tourists fond of cycling, the Glasgow to Killin cycleway crosses Stirling and cyclists can cycle to see Killin village and the Falls of Dochart. Blair Drummond Safari Park offers an exciting range of exotic animals for families to enjoy.
The historic attractions of Stirling come thick and fast, celebrating some of Scotland’s most beloved history. Stirling Castle is one of the finest in Scotland, finer even than Edinburgh Castle. So important is the site that it was said that whoever held Stirling, held the country. The Back Walk in Stirling township follows Stirling Old Town’s wall (the best surviving town wall in Scotland) and a short detour from the path to Gowan Hill brings you to the Beheading Stone, where a number of ritual axe executions took place in the fifteenth century. The Ladies’ Rock, now in the Castle Cemetery, was once a favourite vantage point for watching royal tournaments in the valley below. The impressive Star Pyramid nearby remembers all who were martyred while seeking religious freedom. Around these parts is Rob Roy Country, named after Rob Roy MacGregor, leader of the Clan Gregor who had a reputation as something of a Robin Hood character. The clan was outlawed and nicknamed the Children of the Mist. The Wallace Monument two miles north of Stirling commemorates William Wallace, the Scottish hero celebrated in Mel Gibson’s film ‘Braveheart’. Two miles to the south is Bannockburn where Robert the Bruce defeated Edward II’s English army to reclaim Stirling castle in 1314. Dunblane Cathedral, built upon a Christian site first established by Saint Blane around the year 600, is one of the few surviving medieval churches in Scotland. Doune Castle is a place of pilgrimage for Monty Python fans from around the globe that come to see the location of “Monty Python and the Holy Grail”.
