Nice place for a walk. The ruins are ok but nothing spectacular. Mugdock castle is locked and the other one with a sad history is fenced but maybe better this way.

Fantastic day out on a cloudy/rainy November day! Excellent facilities for our baby (large and clean changing room, and plenty of high-chairs in one of the cafes). We spent a couple of hours walking to explore the two Castles. Will definitely be back!

A fantastic place to visit! The ruins are beautiful — they could easily be used as movie sets. One of them is accessible, while another is deliberately left unrestored to provide a habitat for wildlife like bats, which is just great! There’s no entrance fee, and parking is available too. A wonderful spot for a walk and some history — highly recommended!

To be honest we just went out for a drive heading into the Campsies and saw the sign for here so decided to stop and also walk the dogs. We parked in the east car park which was a little bit away from the visitor centre but still ideal for the dogs to stretch their legs. The visitor centre was quite busy even though it was just midweek on a Wednesday at end of July. I had hoped to get some wildlife photos here but there wasn’t much going on although it was quite peaceful away from the centre.

Great country park plenty of miles of paths taking you off in all directions we usually start up at top and work our way around. Garden centre, cafe’s, coffee shops, play-parks, toilet facilities, picnic benches, plenty of car parking.. even an observatory and much more. Miles of paths taking off in every direction over fields, through woodlands and across marshland. The Castle ruins are a must see whilst visiting too. The park is different depending on the season you come. Different wildlife and vegetation bursting into life.
