A little bit of history but nothing too much to look at here. You can go inside the building but only into the ground floor. There are stairs going up the tower but there closed off with a padlocked gate which is a shame. Some old graves withing the grounds and a few information boards with a bit of history on them.
Cambuskenneth Abbey is lovely, peaceful, calming place to visit, particularly on a sunny day. Good information. Space to wander. Seats available.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo wait
This abbey is an easy fifteen to twenty minute walk from the railway station. It's absolutely beautiful and the signs are really helpful in explaining some of the history. I don't think you can go inside but that's not really necessary as the grounds offer lots to see. The surrounding views are also spectacular.
This is a lovely place to visit. Can go inside bell tower ground floor only the ruins have interesting boards explaining the abbey history. Views across to Stirling Castle and Wallace Monument. Good place for picnic. Village interesting. Stirling city centre 1mile walk.
The Bell Tower is still standing and is quite a beautiful old building. Sadly, the abbey itself is just ruins now. There are many plaques around to tell what each area is believed to have been. You can only visit Cambuskenneth Abbey between April and September. Whilst it would be far more pleasant to visit on a bright sunny day, we still enjoyed walking around in the light rain we had the day we went there.
Lovely building, be sure to come on a sunny day and make sure that you visit when the gates are open for the season. Decent views of the Stirling Castle and Wallace monument as well from afar.
Lovely Abbey. Glad I went to see it. You can get into the lower level of the tower but the stairs are blocked off to upper levels. Ruin out the backnlooks onto water. A window in that ruin look over to Wallace Monument.
At the end of a residential street, with limited parking. Worth a visit if you are interested in old abbey’s otherwise just give it a skip and stick to the other attractions in Stirling city centre
Historic Abbey and grounds. Beautiful surroundings. Easy access. Good information boards.
Lovely little spot to visit. Nice and peaceful evening walk round there, and I saw a couple of wild hares. Which was nice.
