This strategic medieval castle with commanding views lies on the dividing line between the Scottish Lowlands and Highlands and was the seat of kings James IV and James V. Stirling Castle is also where Mary Queen of Scots spent the first four years of her life. Today the castle is home to the Museum of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, one of Britain’s most celebrated regiments. Its restored Royal Palace should not be missed, which features breathtaking tapestries and six rooms: three for the king and three for the queen.
