Hospitality venues in Stirling are stepping up to the plate to help out wedding couples stranded by the closure of Broomhall Castle.
The Menstrie site – which dated back to 1874 – plunged into liquidation last week, with the owners citing the costs of the pandemic making the future of the venue “unviable”.
It meant 12 staff employed at Broomhall were made redundant, while a total of 18 couples booked up at the hotel for weddings were left in the dark and forced to scramble for new bookings amid uncertainty about the chance of recovering their deposits.
