Welcome to Falkirk

Looking for the perfect location for a great short break holiday in Scotland? Falkirk has it all.

Right at the heart of Scotland’s Central Belt, Falkirk is about halfway between Glasgow and Edinburgh, so it’s ideal if you want to see both cities during your short break.

A fascinating place in its own right with everything from ancient Roman ruins to a modern engineering marvel in the shape of the famous Falkirk Wheel, the town and the lovely surrounding countryside are packed with great places to stay, terrific modern and traditional restaurants and bars, and loads to do for the whole family.

Falkirk’s central location also means that if you’re here for a weekend break or for a longer holiday, you can easily reach many of Scotland’s most beautiful areas – including Loch Lomond and the Trossachs, St. Andrews and the rest of Fife, and the lovely Border country, as well as the cosmopolitan big cities.
