Park and Natural Beauty

Pros:

  • "Huge park, great for any age, children can walk and play, plenty of bench to sit on to enjoy the view, perfect for dog walking and duck feeding."
  • "Great route through the woods, perfect for a walk for a dog walk.. really hilly for running though but good if you like a challenge!"
  • "Excellent, free day out, lots to see indoors and great walks outdoors, plenty of play parks for the kids too."
  • "There is over 170 acres of land in Callendar Park meaning there is plenty of space to get away and escape the crowds."
  • "This is a fantastic park, almost right on my doorstep. Great for meeting friends, skating, cycling, playing football with the kids, picnics and more!"
  • "Large park with woodland walks, lake and play area. Crazy golf. Kiosk and bouncy castle in summer months."
  • "Beautiful park and most interesting house with a fascinating history."
  • "One of the most beautiful public parks in Scotland."

Cons:

  • "In woods you can find Forbes Mausoleum shame its been vandalised and not maintained."
  • "The pathway surrounding the lake is a mud bath. It needs serious upgrading."
  • "Used to be a great park but there's not much left to do. The crazy golf is run down and broken."
  • "A lot of the undergrowth is being cleared and removed. This opens up the area a lot and should make it more safe for people going about."
  • "Run down in many areas. Only food outlet is a mobile catering unit which is very expensive."
  • "Despite attempts to renovate kids play park, the park itself is run down, from the poor lake and boats to the shabby crazy golf."

Facilities and Amenities

Pros:

  • "Snacks from tea room are well presented and reasonably priced."
  • "Callendar house is nice history information if you go into kitchen you might get free treat."
  • "Parking is free on site but again can get very busy on warmer, sunnier days."
  • "Great walks, plenty history, kids play area, coffee stand and of course the famous Callendar House."

Cons:

  • "Museum is not interactive- not suitable for 2 year old. Wee one was scolded for touching weights."
  • "For many years this was a great park to visit, the park itself has not changed but the amenities have all but gone."
  • "Really good park, loads of stuff for the kids to do, nice play park, massive big grass areas to run around in, loads of trees to climb! Dog friendly as well!"
  • "The park itself is a brilliant family space. However, the public toilets next to the play area were disgusting."
