I'm looking to call upon the SE expertise again....
We are looking for a restaurant and hotel (can be all in one, or two separate) for a family gathering, in or around Stirling. Any suggestions or recommendations will be much appreciated
TIA

Stirling is not wonderful for choice
This is nearby and easy to Find
Easy travel by train/car
Nice hilltop location overlooking the poor people

There was an SE Christmas get together a couple of years ago at this place:

I had to cancel at last minute, but from what I can gather, it was great night.

if you were to consider the Dunblane Hydro, I would also recommend this place:
http://www.oldchurcheshouse.com/
its recently opened and the food is excellent. can't comment on the rooms though.
there has been a few decent eating places just opened up in Dunblane.

The Highland hotel in Stirling is not bad and up by the castle, with a good few eateries close by. There is also the Adamo (Stirling or Bridge of Allan) but I have not been for a while but used to a good meal.
I would not touch the Hydro in Dunblane with a barge pole personally as the last twice I have been it has had the worst customer service I have ever seen.
