Romantic Restaurants, Getaway Places in Clackmannan

"Edinburgh's Camera Obscura (meaning "dark room") is a fascinating and delightful way to take advantage of the wonderful views of the city from Castle Hill. Located immediately beside Edinburgh Castle, this intriguing attraction is housed in a Victorian rooftop chamber at the apex of the Outlook Tower. Inside this mysterious room you can see moving images of Edinburgh's panorama projected onto the walls by the giant periscope."

"First opening in 1835, this tourist attraction has been entertaining Edinburgh visitors for centuries. So it is certainly one of the best kids activities in Edinburgh. Today there are five floors of interactive optical illusions, where technology and magic meet."

"The eye-catching Camera Obscura building stands at the top of the Royal Mile and contains an amazing range of optical experiences across five floors. The 'camera' itself is a giant Victorian periscope offering an interesting 360° perspective on…"

"Boasting gorgeous views, Calton Hill’s central location makes it a popular spot for those wishing to take in the entire city in all its beauty. On top of the hill you’ll find the Nelson Monument and the National Monument, an unfinished acropolis that is better known under its local nickname ‘Edinburgh’s disgrace.’ It may be seen as a failure in architectural endeavours, but it is still a popular place to get some fantastic photos."

"The hill overlooks the entire town, including Princess Street, which is the direction of the castle. Within that view is the Dugald Stewart monument, which makes for a wonderful shot. Calton Hill is particularly breathtaking at sunset."

"The Compass Bar is a lovely gastro pub located close to Leith Links at the corner of Queen Charlotte Street. The rough brickwork and rich red paint of the interior is studded with wooden framed prints and simple dark wooden tables sit snugly in the cozy dining area. The menu is not particularly adventurous; featuring classic pub dishes like fish and chips and steak pie, but the food is lovingly prepared from fresh produce."

"The charming Orchard Bar and Restaurant in the heart of Canonmills, on Howard Place, is a favourite with families. In the winter the windows are lit up with fairy lights and by summer there are seats outside lining the street so you can have drinks on the terrace. The Orchard is ideal for a meet up with friends and their kids, a quick drink or a sit down meal and can be followed by a scenic walk along the Water of Leith."

"Pickles is a delightfully laid back subterranean bar in trendy Broughton Street. Decorated in the manner of an eccentric library or drawing room with large clocks, pictures and mirrors adorning the walls, it is above all a very intimate and comfortable place to spend time. Oak furniture and soft cushions continue the rustic feel, and there is even a lovely little beer garden for fair weather."

"We recommend a visit to Pickles, especially if you are in the mood for a snack and not a full meal. Pickles serves cheese and meat platters, and pickles, of course!. It’s not a full dinner menu, but this is the perfect place to take a break from haggis and beer and have some wine and cheese. Pickles is cozy, inviting, and we all loved it here."

"Pickles is a lovely little family-run wine bar towards the bottom of Broughton Street. This is the ideal setting for those who view a meat and cheese platter as a sensible dinner decision, which we most definitely do. It’s very cosy and filled with regulars popping in for a glass or two of wine after work."

"For a taste of secret Edinburgh, head to Queen Street, where you’ll find Panda & Sons speakeasy. Many locals consider it to be one of the best cocktail bars in Edinburgh. This Edinburgh speakeasy is disguised as a barber shop, but if you head down the stairs you’ll find a bookcase that’s a secret entrance to the bar behind."

"An award-winning Edinburgh bar that just won't quit when it comes to the cocktails, Panda & Sons offers the ultimate date night treat. Head down pre-dinner for a few signature sips or make a night of it by working your way through six chapters (yes, chapters) of stunning drinks."

"Serving up classic Italian treats in kid-friendly portions, this restaurant lets your little ones get stuck in to spaghetti and meatballs and mozzarella and ham pizza with a free frothy chocolate delight. The adults a la carte menu is as tasty as it is extensive. 126 Cowgate, Glasgow, G66 1HF"
