📌 Falkirk
★★★
This French chateau-like mansion stands among extensive grounds within walking distance of Falkirk town centre. Dating to the 14th century, it’s now owned by the town council and run by a community trust. Parts of the house have been restored and are open to the public, with highlights including the Georgian kitchen, two large reception rooms and various exhibitions. The surrounding parkland has lots to do for all ages, including an adventure playground, boating lake and hilly woodland; why not combine it with a trip to the nearby Falkirk Wheel or the Kelpies?
