Location
St Margaret’s Drive is one of the most desirable streets in Upper Dunblane, lined with substantial Victorian merchants’ houses with generous private gardens and marvellous hill views, yet only a few minutes’ walk to the town centre. All local services and amenities are readily accessible; while the more extensive facilities offered in Stirling are only a ten-minute drive to the south. The rail station which is just a short walk away provides excellent links to Perth, Stirling, Edinburgh and Glasgow. Dunblane boasts primary and secondary schools with first-class reputations and possesses good leisure facilities with a challenging eighteen-hole golf course, a swimming pool, numerous sports and social clubs, including the local tennis club and excellent Dunblane Youth and Sports Centre. There is an extensive Dunblane Path Network that extends up Sheriffmuir and surrounding areas providing excellent variety for dog walking. The High Street is home to the award-winning Tilly Tearoom and a selection of other excellent restaurants, bars, cafes and independent retailers. With its easy access to the road and rail network covering central Scotland and beyond, Dunblane remains a very desirable area among house hunters.
