The 30 Best Water park in Glasgow

“An excellent tour with the highly knowledgeable and professional driver/guide, Kevin. Well worth the ticket price. We saw where ships were built in the past (my family history) and are being built now, as well as how the city and river are changing. An added bonus is that Kevin knows when to not create wash and drives safely, unlike other cowboys.”

“Four unforgettable days paddling Northern Ireland’s stunning North Coast. Rugged cliffs, pristine beaches, the Giant’s Causeway and even SUP surf at Portrush. Windy conditions pushed us, but activities were chosen daily based on the forecast. With Ally's expert guidance, everyone learned new skills. The downwinder exploring the caves and arches from Whiterocks to Portballintrae was a highlight and challenged me outside my comfort zone. We explored on foot when the conditions were too tricky, stayed in practical Portush accommodation, ate well and tested out new Shark boards (want one now). Best of all? Ally, Rob, Stuart and a brilliant group who brought yoga, cold dips, great chats and big smiles. Worst bit? It’s over. Scotland with Glasgow Paddleboarders next? Absolutely.”

“Raymond has been a delight to deal with. Professional, thorough, great value and very helpful. We are amazed at the transformation in our carpets. Couldn’t recommend Raymond highly enough. Just get him booked. Sean & Jane”

“Amazing stay really clean 6 star plus Resort. Very welcoming prosecco waiting for us in lodge. Hot tubs in all lodges sparkling clean. Had food at the bistro try the fish n chips delicious. Will definitely recommend and be back soon.”

“My dog loves this dog field! It’s much cleaner than a lot of other dog fields and is so well maintained. I highly recommend it. Now when we turn off Cochno Road my dog knows she is going here and gets very excited”

“Great country park plenty of miles of paths taking you off in all directions we usually start up at top and work our way around. Garden centre, cafe’s, coffee shops, play-parks, toilet facilities, picnic benches, plenty of car parking.. even an observatory and much more. Miles of paths taking off in every direction over fields, through woodlands and across marshland. The Castle ruins are a must see whilst visiting too. The park is different depending on the season you come. Different wildlife and vegetation bursting into life.”

“Get the bus from Glasgow buchan street bus stn. To Hamilton then to Strathaven.”

On top of the entry tickets, we also booked tickets for the kids planetarium show which came at a small additional charge, but would recommend as it was brilliant.”

“Best staff out there always happy to help regardless if your new or a seasoned vet. If you haven't paid them a visit it's worthwhile.”

“Wonderful place for the family, lovely beach by the waterfall, great for picnics…”

“I recently visited Pollok Park with my family, and we had an absolutely fantastic time. The park is beautifully maintained and offers a perfect mix of natural beauty, open spaces, and interesting views. Children play area was really nice and had lots to do. The kids loved seeing the Highland cattle and exploring the woodland areas. A great spot for a picnic, family walk or just some quiet time away from the city. Highly recommended.”

“Lovely place to go for a walk. Nice car park with plenty of spaces. Good signage of the different pathways you can take including horse trail and nature trail. Has toilet facilities and a big play park for kids. There were a good few benches dotted about on the pathway I chose to venture on which was nice to sit and enjoy the flowing water beside the pathway.”

“Lovely peaceful place for a walk or cycle. The paths are well maintained and easy to follow, with great views across the water and surrounding woodland. Plenty of wildlife around – swans, ducks and lots of birds. Good for a family stroll, dog walk, or just some quiet time in nature. Picnic spots available too. A real hidden gem in Clackmannanshire.”

“Beautiful escape from the city! Easily accessible by car with numerous parking spaces, some small, some larger. Gorgeous views of Paisley, Glasgow, and the mountains. The terrain is not challenging and is suitable for young children. Most of the areas are not wheelchair accessible but the view point has a parking lot, so it's a very good spot for people who would struggle walking long distances.”

“A nice and quiet park I hope you will visit this beautiful place in Glasgow and it is full of beautiful history of the great country of Scotland stemming from beautiful nature”

“Easy to get to from city centre, nice size to walk around. They have pond with Swans and ducks. Definitely worth a visit.”

“Great park, with good facilities nd cafe. Castle ruins, a small Loch and great playground.”

“Wide open spaces for the family, great views of the surrounding areas”

“This place is definitely worth visiting it's not just for kids the adults can join in to on the go carts, slides, hay barn, steeple race and much much more.All the staff are very polite and friendly they made time to explain things.All the animals look healthy and well cared for.we took our own food as there's picnic tables under cover, there is a cafe and gift shop aswell.We went 27th Aug which was really quiet think we saw about 4 families as Scottish children are back at school and the weather wasn't great,but there is plenty of things to do under cover, we didn't have to queue for anything.As the park was closing and we was dawdling along they announced" to the staff we are releasing the lions in 2 minutes" which just made our day and left there laughing.what a cracking day 4 adults and 4 children had.”

“Beautiful Southside parkland running alongside the River Cart. Woodlands and paths are clean and tidy. There is an accessible waterfall and lots of grassy areas with benches to rest. It’s peaceful, simple and relaxing. One of the largest and nicest parks in Glasgow and well worth a drive to.”

“We had a lovely BBQ dayout on a warm day. There is plenty of open space for large outdoor parties, and activities for all ages, M&Ds is next door, boating, cycling and kid's play area. Nice walks around the loch. Pls dont use disposable bbqs on the grass, dispose off ash carefully and leave the area clean for other users.”

“What a gorgeous public park! It has a magical feel to it with the different layers of the park, woodland walk and there’s even a swing park for kids! Cannot recommend enough for people to take a trip here and enjoy the beauty of this beautiful place.”

“Lovely public park in the west end of Glasgow. Plenty of free on street parking nearby. Only slight disappointment is that the Fossil Grove is now only open on very limited circumstances - 1 Sunday afternoon per month for 6 months of the year.”
