Stirling Castle is one of the largest and most important castles in Scotland. It sits atop Castle Hill, an intrusive crag, which forms part of the Stirling Sill geological formation. It is surrounded on 3 sides by steep cliffs, giving it a strong defensive position

Beautiful! With some stunning interior spaces! Much more awesome than Edinburgh castle . There are some one hour guided free tours around the castle every 30 minutes and guides are really emotive!
Excellent visit. Tours every half hour last for an hour but well worth it. Make sure to do the Wall Walk where you walk along the wall to the cannons and then go down to see the kitchens.
A great place to learn about history, the audio guides are very good and I recommend them but I would not eat at the cafe because it is very expensive a ham and cheese bueguette is 7.50 on its own
This is a great castle with some great views . The building is really great and some great architecture . The staff were friendly and helpful. The history and displays well told.
I was pretty sceptical about the £14 entrance fee, but it is entirely worth it. It's a really well maintained castle . Lots to see and explore.
If you're a member of English Heritage you get in for free (50% discount if you've been a member for less than a year). Not advertised, I only found out when I asked at the ticket office ! £14 saved!
Really interesting and well-cared for by Historic Scotland . Get there early to get a parking spot . Follow a guided tour and then explore to your heart's content.
Beautiful Sterling Castle . Magnificent history and a perfect view on Wallace Monument .
Very nice castle ! It's even better than the one in Edinburgh. Taking the audio guide with it to know very the place and hearing a nice story.
One of the more iconic Scottish castles . The price of admission includes a short tour that makes it a worthwhile stop if you're in the area.
Well worth a visit. This is from a second visit in a 3 year period. The guided tours are fascinating and must do in my recommendation.
The £3 for the audio guide is well worth the money if you're travelling alone. The history is acted out in an engaging way, especially so when in the Royal Palace .
James VI of Scotland was brought up here under the care of the Earl and Countess of Mar. His tutor, George Buchanan taught him that his mother, Mary Queen of Scots, had murdered her husband, Darnley
Your ticket gets u free into the House of Argyll , so go early to the Castle so you have enough time to visit the House thereafter.
Great guided tour on the hour, gives you a great background to then explore castle at your leisure with some knowledge behind you.
Great castle with free tour . The tour is really well done.
Very good Castle to visit the home of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders.
I've been to castles all over the UK and I found this castle worth the time and money. Full of history, beautiful, and entertaining. It's a great day trip.
Much worth the stop here. Very large and well kemp grounds with beautiful vista views .
Mary Queen of Scots spent most of her childhood at Stirling before travelling to France for her education in 1548. She was crowned Queen in the Chapel Royal on September 9, 1543.
Lots of nooks and crannies to explore. So much to see. Guides are excellent. Simply a first-class place to visit.
If you have young children with you, take time to join the special children's tour . Very engaging guide who tells the tales of Stirling Castle in a way that kids relate to.
Remarkable castle , on the top of a hill . Go check it out. Even if you don't get in, is totally worth your time.
Your ticket to the castle gets u in to the Argyll Residence for free. So plan and make time for a visit there
Beautiful castle , amazing views and an amazing experience.
Great castle , Scottish heritage (lots of objects, info, etc.). Worth a few hours of your time...
Definitely up on a hill , a large fortifications with a lot of changes made to it over the centuries.
Stirling is spelt with two “i”s and no “e”s. Stirling Silver is different to Sterling Silver, by extension. #Stirling #Silver ????????????????????????????
Beautiful castle . Worth the visit
Beautiful views of Glasgow and surrounding sites like the church .
Amazing castle with a beautiful romantic history.
One of the most stunning and breath-taking views of Stirling and beyond. Proud to be Scottish we are!!!
Beautiful castle . You can park your car near the castle ????????
Fantastic views . Great historic information on the castle .
If you've got a family it can be expensive , was looking at £50 for 5 of us and didn't look to be a family ticket. Better views from Wallace monument just out of the centre.
Fantastic castle with a lovely cafeteria :)
Might be fun to come with your kids, but I found this castle pretty overrated. There isn't a lot of history to read about, but the entrance fee is almost 15 euros.
Well worth a visit! Don't miss this one!
Well worth a visit. So much to See ans lesen as well as the Wallace moment.
Tourist ? Visiting Edinburgh Castle within 5 days? Gran an explorer ticket which will get you a saving if bought here!!
Well-kept castle with great views from the promontory.
One of the best castles to visit
The recently re-opened James V Palace is a STUNNING must see.
The Regimental Museum is well-worth the visit with some remarkable artifacts .
Obligatory visit, amazing views .
True castle , don't miss the great hall and the kitchens!
£14 entrance !!! Really not worth that much. The view is the best and you can get it for free outside
One of the best defended castles
Scotland’s most important Castle @scotland #Castle ???? #Scotland ????????????????????????????
Nice place !
Great view from here but you have to pay for the car park £4 no time limit. - Susan Humphries
Guided tour is interesting and informative. - Joe Barry
The tour at just under 25 minutes is really disappointing - Chris Meechan
Nice hotel, but no AC, and wifi that's not free. Great location though, and beautiful building! - Paul Horn
Amazing views and taking the time to read everything is really worth it - Anu Jayasinghe
The broccoli/cauliflower/chicken/ham casserole is damn good. Highly recommend it. - Robert Clark
Very nice castle although the interior could hav been more decorated - Maria Manoli-Zafeiropoulou
