I had heard about this amazing piece of engineering and we thought we would visit. So happy that we did. It's amazing. We paid for a guided trip, which I would thoroughly recommend. I cannot remember the name of the guide but he was really funny and knowledgeable. The views were stunning, the walks were amazing and to experience the wheel was brilliant

We really enjoyed our visit here. As members there was no entrance fee, but even if we were paying the entrance fees due a family of 3 was really reasonable. The castle ans grounds are really well looked after and there is a lot of interesting things to see inside the castle. It is definitely worth walking to the old castle ruins just a 5 minute walk behind the main castle. It is a great place to take a picnic and there is also a really nice park for the kids too tuckered away.

Great place to bring younger ones reasonable price to get in. Good/fair weather needed to get the best out of the actual Dino bit. You need to walk through the garden centre to get to the Dino park. Staff are really helpful in both the garden centre and Dino park. Tropical feel to the walk around part, and lots of animatronic Dino's to look at with a genuine Jurassic park film theme running through it. Soft play is big enough with a toddler/baby area and wasn't too busy when we were there To the owners, congrats you've done a unique job and hope you feel it's been worth it. Personally loved the foliage, mine and the bridge.

Great find with all different shops and pop up stands as well. Loads of parking and it is free. You can easily spend an hour or so here walking around and then getting a coffee and lunch or a snack. There are also retail shops for you.

Famous for runaway weddings, this is a beautiful village to stop by. There are dog friendly cafes, gift shops, toilets-which are beautiful, by the way, and photo worthy surroundings! We were on a group tour with a mandatory stop here. There's ample parking space of course.

A fantastic day out and worth every penny of the entrance fee, the cafe is great value too. Treat yourself to the mine tour you'll be pleasantly surprised and impressed then ramble on round the village with your knowledgeable guide to learn some interesting facts. Don't forget to finish your day by following the self guided extended tour, nearly forgot the gold panning 😎

Wonderful natural attraction set in lovely surroundings, the area was spotlessly clean and people who were there were respectful of the area. The staff were very polite and helpful and every step of the way there was information to tell you what was what and the history of the area. The walk up to the higher falls looked treacherous on the day we visited as it had rained, so we chose to just view the lower falls, they were still lovely though.

Very nice place to walk around - lots to see and do - but the views of the Falls are the best thing about it still. I was staying in the hotel and the weather picked up so I had a good walk round before the rain reappeared. Used to come years ago with the kids - and it is still as beautiful. Nicely looked after. Well worth a visit, especially if you haven’t been before.

I wasn't sure what to expect as I hadn't researched beforehand. I love seeing mature trees and there are hundreds of fine specimens here. The gardens are well set out with meandering paths among huge trees from all over the world. It rained while we were there but I enjoyed it immensely and could happily have stayed for a couple of hours. Something I would like to see is improved and accessible plant name tags, but that isn't a deal breaker. I highly recommend a visit but if you enjoy being in the company of trees make sure you leave plenty of time to roam and rest. Oh, there is also a bright, clean cafe with good food and friendly staff. The visitor centre is excellent, with really welcoming staff.

Enjoyed a night here, and it was a lovely experience! A real treat to stay in such a historic building. Loved the view from our room out over the maze - worth climbing the spiral staircase to the room! Also lovely to relax in the Drawing Room which is next to the other two guest rooms on the ground floor. Breakfast was very relaxed, and made with quality produce - so very tasty. Lucy, the housekeeper, looked after us really well, and the team of guides were lovely and knowledgeable as we looked around the house. The grounds are full of wildlife and good for walks.

Free entrance for everyone. What a lovely place! A splendid way to travel backwards in time! This place truly caters to the public, keeping diverse areas vibrant. The stunning architecture and garden surroundings could easily pass as a filming location for "Downton Abbey." Kudos to the incredibly kind individuals standing at the entrance all day, braving the cold to offer every visitor a proper welcome! Ensure you contribute a small donation to play your part in sustaining this establishment (I've included the QR code in one of the pictures).

This was a birthday present for me from family & included a meal at the #7 restaurant (which was excellent)! Took my mate along, as it was his birthday the next day (when we played Newcastle) & we both had a fantastic time. Paul the tour guide was great & delivered the talk with ease & very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend. HH 🍀

Glasgow Cathedral is one of the iconic buildings to visit in Glasgow. Its breathtaking and majestic Gothic architecture is evident both inside and out. The intricate details of the cathedral reveal the rich history of this enduring structure. The cathedral is free to enter, but donations are recommended for the restoration and maintenance of the building. Please note that the last entry is at 4:15 p.m., so you’ll need a full hour to explore everything inside. There’s also plenty of information to read along the way.

Beautiful cemetery within walking distance of Glasgow city centre. Spent about an hour looking around. I'm sure there would be something interesting to see each visit. Very peaceful with lovely views of Glasgow Cathedral and loved the spring blossom. Free to enter.

Hands down one of the best zoo in the UK. It's just £21 on the spot in 2025. it has an incredible story behind It so many animals and such a good variety. The zoo is very walkable. The talks were interesting. A big kids play area. And you can get chased by a goose. And some unique animals like the bear, the goose and more. I got no words, I was really happy there.

Better than expected. Reasonable priced cafe as well £5 for a toasties bit more if you add chips. Also £2 per person for train ride and £1 per person for the tractor. Everyone was friendly and the day we had was 20 degrees. Wonderful day! Was a nursery trip.

The Kelpies are absolutely stunning! A must-see attraction in Scotland — the giant horse-head sculptures are breathtaking, especially when the sunlight or night lights reflect off the metal. It’s a perfect spot for photography with plenty of beautiful angles around the park and canal. The café on site is lovely, with friendly and helpful staff and a nice selection of snacks, drinks, and ice cream. Everything was clean and well presented. The environment is spotless, well maintained, and peaceful — ideal for families or anyone wanting to relax and enjoy the scenery. There’s also ample car parking nearby, making it easy and convenient to visit. Overall, a fantastic experience — great art, great atmosphere, and great service. Highly recommend visiting The Kelpies!

My wife and I went first thing in the morning when it opened at 930am. on a Saturday. The castle was wonderful and rich in history. We did not have a tour guide, just walked around ourselves and enjoyed the beauty and architecture of this historical place. The views are stunning. About a 17-minute uphill walk from the train station, and it seemed way faster on the way down, like 5 minutes. It's worth exploring and enjoying the excellent and magnificent history Scotland has to offer. It also has a few gift shops around the location and also toilets which is a plus. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Don't forget your Stirling Castle Magnets!

A Truly Memorable Visit to Wallace Monument The Wallace Monument is a wonderfully organized attraction with excellent access and free shuttle service. At the foot of the hill stands a spacious, free car park for both cars and buses – a thoughtful gesture from the local council. Nearby, you’ll find a visitor centre with a gift shop, clean toilets, and a café. The small shuttle bus departs regularly from just outside and takes visitors up the hill in about 3 minutes. For those who prefer to walk, the uphill path takes about 15 minutes – it’s quite steep but paved and equipped with benches for resting along the way. At the top, there’s a viewing terrace with benches placed around the tower, offering a place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Entrance to the monument closes at 5 PM, so make sure to arrive in good time. Exploring all the exhibition rooms inside the tower takes about 30 minutes, including climbing the very narrow spiral staircase. The exhibits are engaging and well-curated, including a short but informative film about the Battle of Stirling Bridge and the legendary William Wallace himself. The panoramic view from the observation platform at the top of the tower is absolutely breathtaking and leaves a lasting impression. The vista over the battlefield and the river below is truly unforgettable. After descending, consider stopping by the gift shop – it’s the best place to find affordable souvenirs such as magnets, T-shirts, and unique memorabilia. Opposite the shop, there is also a small bistro for drinks and light meals. You can return downhill either on foot or via shuttle. In total, the visit takes about 3 hours. On a beautiful day, this is a perfect spot for a short historical journey and an outdoor lunch with a view.

So fun fact, Outlander and Monty Python was filmed in certain areas, and some of the rooms were recreated from this castle. The audio guide was great and gave you fascinating information about the history, back stories on outlander, as were as Monty Python and the holy Grail. They also sell shirts for Monty Python in the gift shop along with outlander gifts. The only negative parts is not enough parking, but in the center of town 5-11 minutes away, there is free parking, if you are walking.

Excellent car park right next to the walk. We got there at 9am and when we got back at 11.30 it was full. The walk to the falls is easy but we then did the full circular walk which is over 3 miles and took 2.5 hrs. This wasn't easy as a lot of uphill but stunning views and took is right round to the Scout pool too.

Stopped for breakfast on a Sunday morning (9:30am) and the cafe was nice and quiet. Was apprehensive after reading some reviews but had a great experience - staff were welcoming and friendly, food came quickly and was freshly cooked and really tasty (small breakfast and a sausage sandwich). Would definitely visit again!

An absolutely fantastic distillery tour! The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I seriously recommend this experience. Our guide was clearly passionate about their product, and we learned so much about how they make their whisky — all done the old-fashioned way, which was fascinating to see. On top of that, there’s a lovely perfume store and a crystal shop on site, which made the visit even more

Absolutely fantastic place to step back into the past. Staff are friendly, welcoming and very knowledgeable. Cafe is vary reasonably priced as is the gift shop. Plenty of good free parking and easy to find. We'll worth a visit for all ages.

The Birks of Aberfeldy is a truly stunning walk — a perfect mix of nature, tranquillity, and a little bit of adventure. The well-marked trail takes you through beautiful woodland alongside a rushing burn, with plenty of picturesque spots for photos. The highlight is the series of waterfalls, which are especially impressive after rain. The circular route is manageable for most fitness levels (about 1.5–2 hours at an easy pace), but there are some steps and steeper sections, so good walking shoes are a must. Benches and viewpoints along the way make it easy to take breaks and soak in the scenery. It’s easy to see why Robert Burns wrote a poem inspired by this place — the atmosphere is magical. Definitely worth visiting if you’re in Perthshire!

We got incredibly lucky at the Pitlochry Festival Theatre, managing to bag the last two tickets for "Nan Shepherd: Naked and Unashamed" for that day. Having already fallen in love with charming Pitlochry while staying in a nearby shepherd's hut, learning about the show meant we simply had to go – and we are so incredibly glad we did. This two-hander was an immensely engaging play, a testament to the clever writing by Richard Baron and Ellie Zeegen. Its immersive nature and thoughtful design truly drew us in. Adam Buksh and Susan Coyle delivered tremendous performances, with Adam Buksh seamlessly embodying multiple characters with impressive elan. The narrative, especially being about Nan Shepherd while in the Highlands, felt deeply resonant and culturally enriching. The Pitlochry Festival Theatre itself left a strong impression. We watched the play in the Studio, and the seats were exceptionally comfortable. The views would be excellent from anywhere in the studio, a credit to its design. The director clearly kept the venue's features in mind, which only served to elevate the play further. Learning more about the theatre's history and mission afterward made us even more appreciative of our visit. For me, there's truly no better way to understand a place than to engage with its arts scene. Experiencing a play about Nan Shepherd while immersed in the Highlands felt like a uniquely perfect cultural moment. It was a truly memorable and highly recommended experience!

Such an amazing place. So ingenious. We never saw any fish on our visit but it was cold so I reckon the fish were smarter than us

A splendid experience. It was the first time for me and the tour was really informative and very well explained. The tour guide was really nice and so friendly. We had a great chat with her afterwards. Don't forget to visit their shop after the tour. You won't find any of their products outside their venue which is an added value for them indeed. Highly recommended.

Off the A9 about 5 miles on a windy road that sometimes only one car can pass by but well worth it. The views are amazing and takes your breath away. Paid parking, 3£ and done by app on the phone.

Edradour has been closed for tours for a couple years now. The stated reason was lack of staff, but I have been told that since this distillery is so small and demand is so high, they have simply been selling faster than they can make it. They produce in a year what other distilleries produce in a day, so they say. If you want to try their wares, Robertsons on the high street in Pitlochry offers tastes and is their next point of sale with plenty of bottles available. When/if they finally open again for tours, you can access the distillery via a pathway that also goes to a massive waterfall and sort of connects to the Blair Atholl distillery, so that would be a fun walk for whiskey and nature lovers.
