World of Wings Birds of Prey Centre

We are Scotland's largest birds of prey centre. There are over 70 birds to see and fantastic flying displays every day. Our birds include eagles, falcons, owls, hawks, vultures and parrots. We are open from 10am till 5pm and the displays are at 12 noon and 3pm daily. The centre is open 7 days a week all year round. We do experiences where you can handle and fly the birds (booking required). Come and sample our home cooking at The Cabin Cafe.

Went along purely on a whim this afternoon and was very impressed indeed. I had read about World of Wings on social media and planned to go along at some point. Today was that day. The flying display was excellent - the staff were really relaxed and informative, and we had the opportunity to see owls, hawks, eagles and even a stork in flight! Will definitely be back.

Summerlee - Museum of Scottish Industrial Life

Reviewed By christine0253 - Glasgow, United Kingdom

We used to take our own children to summerlee when they were younger and now we take our 3 grandchildren who love it just as much. There are plenty of things that the kids can get involved with and get their hands on and they love the tram to the old cottages and mine The cottages are all done up for various rooms through history which is really interesting and the children love everything about them. This museum is well worth the trip

National Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes, Carfin Grotto

Reviewed By 10Korky10 - Stranraer, United Kingdom

I really can’t express how amazing this serene , beautifully kept place is. I only learned that it existed a couple of months ago as was in the area staying for a couple of nights with my husband. We wandered around the gardens in beautiful sunshine gasping at how wonderful Carfin grotto is. I caught mass in the chapel which made our visit even more special. I live 90 miles away but will be back. It is a free place to visit and I’ve been told there’s no more money to keep it open. We’d have happily have paid to visit. I pray that it dosent close

Enjoyed a lovely walk from the watersports centre around the loch and back took around an hour an a half and saw some of the lovely nature sights within the park and some lovely flaura and fauna.

Reviewed By Andrina106 - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

We visited again as we had arranged our Grandson's birthday party here. Fantastic from start to finish. The staff were second to none, the facilities were clean and safe, with lots to do. To add to this as always the food was great quality and well priced. Not your normal soft play food. The choice and quality are fantastic and the portion sizes even better. Our Grandson had a super time, the children never stopped except for food and drinks. We would recommend this place for a normal visit and/or a birthday party.

Gravit8

Reviewed By Baillieston

Visited on 3rd August for my sons birthday with 3 other children.I had booked online and on arrival we where greeted by a very helpful member of staff. The boys had a great time and I thought it was excellent value for money. Having visited all trampoline places in Glasgow, Gravit8 is definitely the best and we will return again.

We visited here as a group of 6 adults & 9 children on a Saturday afternoon - it is the cleanest soft play place we’ve ever been to! Staff were hoovering the eating areas regularly and staff supervision in the play areas was very good. My daughter had lunch too which she thoroughly enjoyed. As soft play goes this place is hard to beat!
