Stirling Distillery, having been already awarded a Tripadvisor Travellers Choice Award for their gin and whisky experiences for several years, has been awarded Visitor Attraction of the Year at Stirling Business Awards. To win the award they had to beat stiff competition in the form of Stirling Castle and the Stirling Smith Art Gallery and Museum.
More than 16,000 votes were cast for the companies nominated in the ten categories for the inaugural awards which are run by Go Forth Stirling BID. The event was headlined by Celtic rock band Red Hot Chilli Pipers and hosted by Central FM.
