Location
Cambusbarron is a small, interesting village that sits in the shadow of the historic Gillies Hill with views to the north of the Trossachs hills beyond Callander. Cambusbarron and the nearby Gillies Hill are steeped in some of Scotland’s most colourful history. Ghillies Hill played a pivotal role in the Battle of Bannockburn: it is the hill from which Robert the Bruce’s camp followers, or Gillies, descended onto the field of the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314 turning the tide of the battle which granted Scotland nearly 400 years of independence. There are also two Iron Age Forts on the hill which date back over 2000 years: Wallstane Dun and Gillies Hill Fort which date back over 2000 years.
Perfectly located for hill walkers, this property is only a 30-minute drive from the heart of the hill walkers’ paradise of the Trossachs.
Despite its small size, the village has a small cafe and pub, The Foresters Arms, both of which serve delicious food. The Cambusbarron Village Store and The Brae Co-op will keep you stocked up on last-minute bottles of wine and food during your stay. Why not try out the exceptional Scottish artisan butcher in the village which rightly claims to produce a very fine steak pie!

Slightly further away in Causewayhead on the top of Abbey Craig outcrop is the National Wallace Monument. The historic Battle of Stirling Bridge in 1297, the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314 and the Battle of Sherriffmuir in 1715 all helped to shape the history of Scotland and these sites can easily be visited from Mhuilinn Apartment.
