The Location
Royal Gardens was constructed in 1892 and was designed by the architect John Allan who designed many of Stirling's most interesting buildings. As you enter Stirling from the north and reach the King's Knot at the base of the Castle rock, you can see Royal Gardens peeking over the grassy horizon. As you head along the tree-lined road you get glimpses of the sentinel like Italianate towers guarding the entrance to the city of Stirling.

This landmark building offers an incredible collection of unique homes within an incomparable historic setting at the foot of the 500 year old Stirling Castle. Each property provides the unique combination within Stirling of both exceptional views and immediate access to the lifestyle offering of the City Centre. Royal Gardens offers an unparalleled quality of life for you and your family showcasing the best of city living with a choice of 1,4,5 and 6 bedroom homes. Each property is very generously proportioned and enjoys its own dedicated private outside garden space. In recent years, the conversion of Royal Gardens has been designed to blend old with new and demonstrate the sensitive treatment of a Grade B listed building.
All of the apartments enjoy spectacular views to Stirling Castle and across the Kings Knot to the rolling hills of the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park. The King's Knot is the grounds of the ancient King's Park which has been in the ownership of The Crown since the 1100's. The King's Park is therefore an area of great historical significance. It is Scotland's earliest recorded Royal Park and Scotland's last former Royal Park still owned by the Crown.

Royal Gardens is in an established residential area, within a short walk to the centre of Stirling. The very popular Kings Park is in the immediate vicinity, as is Stirling Golf Club. As well as the excellent shopping facilities the city has to offer, there are numerous sites of historical significance such as Stirling Castle and the Wallace Monument. Schooling is available nearby at both primary and secondary level and the region is well served by independent schools with Fairview International Bridge of Allan, Dollar Academy and Morrison's all in the area. Stirling University, which includes the MacRobert Arts Centre, is also within easy reach. Motorway access to Glasgow (24 miles), one of the UK's most dynamic cities with outstanding shopping, excellent theatres and a thriving business district. Edinburgh (37 miles) and Perth (33 miles) are also easily accessible by motorway. Regular trains from Stirling serve Glasgow, Edinburgh, and The North for the many daily commuters. Leisure and recreational facilities in and around the city are excellent and Stirling is on the edge of some of Scotland's most beautiful countryside, including the Trossachs and Loch Lomond National Park. Stirling is the Gateway to the Highlands.
