Very good location, difficult parking so if you don't have a car, it's really great. The lounge was nice to have. The beds were comfortable and although we didn't use the kitchen it was well-equipped. The bath was also nice, although the mirror...

Hello, my name is Dianne. 41A Broad Street has been part of our family for four generations and holds many special memories for us. My mother and my granny both lived here, and I spent part of my childhood growing up in the building. Over the years the property has seen many changes, but it has always remained a place connected to family, warmth, and home. My two daughters also lived here while growing up, so the house has been filled with family life for many years. Broad Street is especially meaningful to us because my husband and I were married at the nearby Church of the Holy Rude, just a short walk away. Being located in the heart of Stirling’s historic Old Town makes it even more special, surrounded by centuries of history and within walking distance of many of the city’s most famous landmarks. Today we are delighted to welcome guests from around the world to stay here. It means a great deal to share a place that has been part of our family story for so many years, and we hope that during your stay it becomes a small part of your own travel memories too.
Broad Street is one of the oldest streets in Stirling’s historic Old Town and has been at the heart of the city for hundreds of years. The street lies just below Stirling Castle and has long been part of the route connecting the castle to the town. Over the centuries Broad Street has seen markets, travellers, soldiers and townspeople passing through its cobbled streets. Many of the buildings here date back hundreds of years and are full of stories from Stirling’s rich past. Today the street remains one of the most atmospheric parts of the city, only a short walk from Stirling Castle, the Church of the Holy Rude and the Old Town Jail. We hope you enjoy staying in this special part of Stirling and experiencing a little piece of its history during your visit. Stirling Castle One of Scotland’s grandest castles and a former residence of Scottish kings and queens. The views across the surrounding countryside are spectacular. Church of the Holy Rude One of the most historic churches in Scotland, dating back to the 15th century. It is famous as the coronation place of King James VI in 1567. Old Town Jail A fascinating visitor attraction with guided tours that bring Victorian prison life to life. National Wallace Monument A dramatic tower overlooking Stirling that commemorates Scottish hero William Wallace. Visitors climb 246 steps to the top for panoramic views. Mote Hill A short walk from the castle with fantastic views across the River Forth. Historically this hill was used for medieval executions. The Stirling Smith Art Gallery and Museum A lovely local museum with art, historic objects and stories about Stirling’s past. The Portcullis A cosy pub near the castle serving classic Scottish dishes and hearty portions. Cowane’s Hospital Coffee Shop A lovely café in a historic building serving cakes, teas and light lunches. Stirling Gin Distillery, just a short walk beneath Stirling Castle. Stirling's Ghost Walk It’s fun and slightly spooky.
