Foresters Apartment, Cambusbarron, Stirling, Stirlingshire


Foresters Apartment is a spacious self catering holiday home located at Cambusbarron, a pretty village just 2 miles from the centre of Stirling. We are a perfect place for holidaymakers who want to explore Stirlingshire or those who are in the area on business and are looking for a home away from home. 

Our holiday apartment is self-contained with a generous lounge, Berger suite and reclining sofa which guarantee comfort for large or small families wishing to sit around the open fire or watch the widescreen TV. 

Seconds from your front door you will find the village main street and most of the things you need for a self catering stay. Whatever your plans, be it for a family, groups of friends, sightseeing, sporting trip, or a short term business contract, the Foresters is the ideal place. Of course, the main attraction in Stirling is Stirling Castle. The castle is built on an easy to defend hill and it overlooks the River Forth so it has seen quite a lot of action. It was home to the Stuart monarchs for many years. Today it has been partially restored to its former splendour and you may take a tour where you will see quite realistic models of people working in the kitchens which is fun for adults and children alike. 

Among other attractions is Argyll's Lodgings - a 17th Century townhouse - and the ruin known as Mar's Wark. Not far from this you will find the Church of the Holyrood. A little further down the hill you will find the Old Town Jail which has been changed into a live show tourist attraction. Here you can see how people would have suffered in the harsh conditions of a Victorian reform prison. Right across the road you will find Tolbooth - the jail which preceded Old Town Jail and in which up to 25 prisoners were sometimes kept in a single cell. Today Tolbooth is a music and arts centre. You may also wish to visit the Smith Art Gallery and Museum which is entertaining for visitors of all ages.
