CAMBUSBARRON: The Foresters 2 Murray Place is in the center of a thriving village and ajoins Gillies Hill
Gillies Hill, a piece of land on the outskirts of Stirling which played a pivotal role in the Battle of Bannockburn. The hill played its part in Scotland’s history when Robert the Bruce’s troops rested there on the eve of the Battle of Bannockburn, in 1314.
Seconds from your front door you will find Cambusbarron main street and most things you need on a self catering holiday,
the paper shop for all the gossip a Post Office to send those post cards a hairdressers a quality butcher and of course Foresters The Village Pub.
You cant miss the impressive spire of The Bruce Memorial Church, don't set your watch by its clock but do rely on the Sunday Sermon being a sell out.
A few yards on the Cambusbarron Community Hall overlooks a great play park with a paddling pool and lots of things to entertain the kids.
