Jackie and partner got the keys to Stirling Castle Walk Bed and Breakfast in December 2017. Journalists by trade, they have worked all over the world from Africa and Europe to Asia and the USA. They have published 22 books between them, on topics from banking and property to political biography. They have covered civil wars, elections and have interviewed presidents, prime ministers and notorious rascals, winning awards along the way. Settled in Stirling to raise their boys, and with some experience of tourist accommodation and the hospitality industry, they decided to bring the distinctive Stirling guest house set in the city walls heritage site back to life. They appreciate fine coffee, the best mattresses and pillows in town, cleanliness and the opportunity to look after a small piece of Stirling's unique history. They look forward to welcoming you and are happy to provide recommendations to help you get the most out of your visit to central Scotland. "We're close to many important and interesting historical and cultural sites in Scotland," says Jackie, who is enjoying discovering her Cameron clan history and genealogy. Let us help you make your holiday one to cherish!
