Broomhall Castle
In 1906 the wealth of the builder declined, and the Castle was sold to an Italian Riding School. In 1910 it became the Clifford Park Boys Prep School. On Friday 28 June 1940 the building caught fire whilst the boarders were camping in the grounds. Despite the efforts of the Alloa Fire Brigade the building was gutted. There was a spectacular scene when the roof fell in, sending a shower of sparks heavenwards. It was left in ruins until 1985 when it was rebuilt and turned into a nursing home. In 2003 it was purchased, and the owners then turned it into a small hotel, and was run as a 16 bedroom hotel, with restaurant and lounge. In the summer of 2022 Broomhall Castle went into liquidation. The Broomhall Castle in 2023 changed ownership. The current owner is currently reopening the hotel with 17 rooms with the bar and lounge.
The castle is also home to the Castle View Restaurant that serves both guests of the hotel and the general public.
