Stirling

Stirling discover

The castle, Old Town, and Wallace Monument make Stirling a compact introduction to Scotland’s history.

Stirling combines its historic town center with Stirling Castle and the National Wallace Monument. The castle is part of visiting the Old Town; the monument is a separate excursion with its own access and ticket.

Your Stirling complements the well-known landmarks with cultural offerings and events. An overnight stay leaves more time for the Old Town and exhibitions.
