About the area

Blair Drummond is home to Blair Drummond Safari and Adventure Park, which opened in 1970 and has become a major attraction in the region. The area has historically been part of the Stirlingshire landscape, with connections to the broader history of central Scotland. Stirlingshire played a crucial role in Scottish history, particularly during the Wars of Scottish Independence. Stirling Castle, one of Scotland's most important fortresses, dominates the region and has been witness to major historical events including battles and royal occasions.

Doune Castle Filming Location
Doune Castle
Doune Castle is a remarkably well-preserved medieval stronghold in Stirling, best known today for its extensive use as a filming location. It famously appears in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, where it stood in for multiple castles and interiors, with many of the film’s iconic scenes shot both inside the castle and in its surrounding grounds. It was also used in Outlander as Castle Leoch, and in Game of Thrones as Winterfell in the pilot episode, making it one of Scotland’s most recognisable screen locations. For Monty Python and the Holy Grail, several nearby landscapes around Doune and the River Teith were used for exterior scenes, including countryside sequences and approach shots to “swamp castles” and travelling knights. While there isn’t a dedicated “Holy Grail cave” at Doune itself, some of the film’s cave-like and forest scenes were shot in nearby rural areas of the Stirling and Callander region, where wooded glens and limestone features provided the backdrop for wandering knight sequences and encounters. Visitors to Doune Castle can explore the imposing gatehouse, great hall, and kitchen areas, many of which remain largely unchanged since the medieval period. Nearby, the historic town of Stirling offers Stirling Castle and the Wallace Monument, both rich in Scottish history and frequently linked with film productions and period dramas due to their dramatic settings. The surrounding Trossachs area also provides rugged landscapes that have been used in numerous historical and fantasy productions, making Doune a central hub for both cinematic and real-world Scottish heritage.
