Morning Adventure at Kelvingrove Park and Museum
Kickstart your day with a visit to the beautiful Kelvingrove Park, located just a short drive or bus ride from our serviced apartments. This Victorian park is a fantastic spot for families, complete with ample green spaces, a riverside walk, and a well-equipped play area for the kids to burn off some energy.
Just next to the park, you’ll find the iconic Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, a must-see for all ages. With over 8,000 exhibits, including the famous Spitfire plane and the awe-inspiring natural history displays, the museum is both educational and entertaining. The best part? Admission is free, making it a budget-friendly addition to your family day.
Lunch in the West End
After a morning of discovery, head into the vibrant West End for a family-friendly lunch. The area boasts an array of charming cafés and restaurants that cater to every taste. If your little ones love Italian food, try Òran Mór, a stunning venue offering delicious meals and a warm welcome. For something a bit more casual, why not grab some sandwiches or snacks and enjoy a picnic back in Kelvingrove Park?
Afternoon Fun at Glasgow Science Centre
No trip to Glasgow would be complete without a visit to the Glasgow Science Centre, a venue guaranteed to spark curiosity and excitement in children and adults alike. The interactive exhibits, planetarium, and IMAX theatre ensure there’s something to engage every member of the family. Whether you’re exploring the wonders of the human body in the BodyWorks exhibition or trying to defy gravity at the Science Show Theatre, it’s a place where learning and fun come together.
The Science Centre is a quick taxi or bus ride from our accommodation, so logistics are easy and stress-free. Plus, it makes for a perfect indoor activity if Glasgow’s weather decides not to cooperate!

Merchant City, located right in the heart of Glasgow, is a wonderful location to wind down the day. Known for its lively streets and rich history, it’s a great place for families to explore as the sun sets. Treat yourselves to dinner at one of the many family-friendly restaurants in the area.
