Bearsden

Bearsden is a popular place to head to in Greater Glasgow as some of the city’s main attractions are close. Two destinations that should be on every visitor’s list is the fabulous Dawsholm Park and the ever-popular Fossil Grove. Two other recommended attractions you’ll find nearby Bearsden are Rothesay Dock and Xscape Braehead.

There are many natural gifts here as well, so make sure you enjoy the chance to get outdoors. Enjoy some of the tranquil parklands such as the Botanic Gardens in Glasgow.

Treat yourself to a new outfit, stock up on food or just window shop at nearby shopping hotspots such as the Braehead Shopping Centre in Glasgow.

Sports fans can spend an afternoon cheering on the Braehead Clan ice hockey team in winter and the Paisley Pirates at Braehead Arena, Glasgow, the sporting heart and soul of the city. When the full-time siren sounds, follow the stream of local sports obsessives to a nearby pub or bar for a post-match beer ot two.

When you’re ready to slow down after enjoying the charms of Bearsden, check in to one of the area’s convenient accommodation options. Take your pick from the Glasgow Pond Hotel, the Hilton Glasgow Grosvenor Hotel, or the Beardmore Hotel and Conference Centre, Clydebank.
