What to see and do in Glasgow
Style Mile
Glasgow has a celebrated shopping scene, and Style Mile is the pinnacle. It centres around Buchanan Street, Merchant City and St Argyle Street and features hundreds of big-name fashion houses.
People’s Palace
A museum of social history and historic glasshouse set within the fields of Glasgow Green, People’s Palace is an architectural gem dating back to 1898. The stories of local life it champions date back all the way to 1750.
Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum
Glasgow has many esteemed museums, but Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum is one of the most popular in all of Scotland. Its 22 themed galleries showcase more than 8,000 objects, including arms and armour, fine European art from many eras and natural history exhibits.
Two themed galleries, Life and Expression, have separated art from history since 2006.
St Mungo Museum of Religious Life and Art
Between the University of Strathclyde campus and Glasgow Necropolis lies a reconstructed medieval-style castle that’s home to a unique museum. It’s named after Glasgow’s patron saint and is dedicated to religion.
This part of town is home to some of Glasgow’s richest heritage, including its oldest house and Gothic Glasgow Cathedral.
Pollok Country Park
Glasgow is a great city for fresh air and recreation – the urban area alone boasts 90 separate parks. Pollok Country Park is one of the best, thanks to its combination of woodland, gardens, nature trails and the formidable Pollok House.
Inside this ancestral country house, you can see the esteemed Burrell Collection, which features important artwork from five millennia.
Glasgow’s best hotels
Kimpton Blythswood Square Hotel
Glasgow’s city centre is filled with beautiful buildings, including the former Royal Scottish Automobile Club, which has become this beautiful five-star hotel. The interiors are at once grand and modern, and there’s nearby parking for the hire car, too.
Hotel du Vin at One Devonshire Gardens
Planning a weekend with Glasgow’s finest theatres? Staying in the fashionable west end stands you in good stead for seeing the city’s artistic side. This boutique hotel is popular for weddings and business trips thanks in part to the superb French cuisine it serves.
Crossbasket Castle
The ultimate Scottish holiday calls for a fortress, and Crossbasket Castle lives up to every expectation. This 17th-century castle is now one of the Glasgow region’s most charming hotels – it’s just 25 minutes south of the centre by hire car in a popular spot for outdoor activities such as fishing and shooting.
Glasgow’s best places to eat
Rogano
Thought to be the oldest restaurant in Glasgow still trading, Rogano serves up 1930s Art Deco ambience from its restaurant, oyster bar and cafe. Over the decades, this establishment has become something of a polestar for fresh seafood lovers.
Bilson Eleven
Bohemian fine dining in the suburbs – what could better surmise Glasgow’s bold and outlandish east end? At Bilson Eleven, there’s an emphasis on artistic presentation and striking flavour combinations – the tasting menu is the quickest route through its catalogue of truffles, coal-oiled trout and vegetables coated in 20-year aged balsamic.
Blue Lagoon
Glaswegian cuisine may have taken great influence from France over the centuries, but today it’s better known for deep-fried chocolate bars than hors d’oeuvres. Blue Lagoon is a no-frills family-run fish bar that’s been widely heralded as one of the best fish and chip shops in Glasgow since the 1970s.
Best day trips from Glasgow
Loch Lomond
Loch Lomond is Britain’s largest lake, a glistening body of water that stretches for 24 miles. It’s set in Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, which is home to some of the country’s most beautiful landscapes. Take to the southern trails and you might spy red deer. Or, drive the hire car into the peaks and glens of the far north.
Culzean Castle
An hour south of Glasgow by hire car, Culzean Castle is set in a relaxing country park beside the cliffs and beaches of western Scotland. Step inside to see the famous Oval Staircase, an architectural masterpiece designed by Robert Adam, or explore the nearby pond, woodland and parks.
Alloway
Alloway is a lyrical village just outside Ayr which is known as the birthplace of Scotland’s most famous poet, Robert Burns. It’s just 45 minutes from Glasgow by hire car and boasts attractions such as the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum, Burns Cottage and the vast sands of Ayr Beach.
