   Strathclyde Country Park is a beautiful place for a day out with family or friends. The large loch is perfect for walks, cycling, and watersports, with plenty of space to relax and enjoy nature. There are great play areas for children, lovely picnic spots, and well-maintained paths that make it easy to explore. The scenery is peaceful, and it’s a great place to escape the busy town for fresh air and outdoor activities. A real gem in Motherwell!

   This site sits at the cross roads of two motorways. But it really is quite quiet. Surrounded by trees and big wide open pitches, it beautiful. I would definitely book again.

   It's crazy and sad just how much litter is left around here (or blown in the direction of the park). Other than that, I really love being here, the animals, the rowers and the sailors all provide some entertainment on the walk. There's a cafe near one of the beach areas and some ruins a bit further round that are worth a look. In hot weather there will be one or two ice cream vans too! There's also a couple of play parks for the kids. If walking close to the water edge, just be aware of the midges (in the hot weather).

   I've passed this place time after time on my way to the Highlands but as I was staying 30 mins away by car I thought I'd take a look. The loch is a fair old size with a nice 3.5 mile loop around it. I would say the only thing that spoiled it was the amount of litter, from babies nappies left on benches to empty beer cans and coffee cups. There's plenty of bins around the park it's just people that need educating clearly but saying that I never saw anyone actually there cleaning the park.

   Good but they should open the balcony in the watersports cafe. It looks closed but when asked, they have one door unlocked. Anyone trying the other doors would just assume it was closed. Nice day, covid on the rise again, let people sit outside. Pull the tables down nearer the windows so people can see them and they would be more inclined to go out. If it was run by a private company, far more use would be made of the outdoor balcony. It's a perfect outdoor area for people to sit. Home made soup gorgeous but bit too salty. Let people salt it themselves to their own taste. Great wee cafe though and friendly helpful staff.
