About Bannockburn House Guided History Tours

After over 50 years of dormancy, the house and surrounding gardens and grounds were bought by the local community in December 2017 - with help from public donations and grants from organisations including Stirling Council and the Scottish Land Fund. A dedicated army of volunteers is now breathing new life into the house and grounds with the aim of creating a community hub, providing a range of activities and resources to benefit future generations.

Come and discover the house's connections to centuries of history, the part it played in the life of Bonnie Prince Charlie, the Jacobite movement, and the worldwide tartan trade.

Parking is available on the driveway of the house for booked visitors only. Please car share where possible as there is limited parking space.

Booking essential. Tours are by arrangement only.

During each of our tour dates, we will have our volunteer-run cafe between 12:00 till 3:00. We invite you to come in before or after your tour to have a seat and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee in the magnificent dining room of Bannockburn House. Our volunteers will have a little selection of some delicious home baking on offer to enjoy with your cuppa. Please note that our home baking may contain allergens. and we ask for a donation for this.
