Glasgow Riverside Museum

 

• Riverside Museum is Glasgow's award-winning museum. It is the first purpose-built museum created by Glasgow Life in the 21st century. Located at the junction of the Rivers Kelvin and Clyde, it houses the city’s fabulous transport and technology collections, which have been gathered over the centuries and reflect the important part Glasgow has played in the world through its contributions to heavy industries like shipbuilding, train manufacturing and engineering. Visitors can explore a vast collection of exhibits and vehicles, including cars, bicycles, motorcycles, trams, buses, and even a steam locomotive. The exhibits span several eras, showcasing the evolution of transportation. From vintage automobiles to current day vehicles. Highlights of the museum include a recreated street scene, which provides a glimpse into Glasgow's past. Visitors can stroll along a cobbled street lined with shops, houses, and even a subway station, all authentically recreated to transport visitors back in time.

 

Glasgow

 

• Glasgow is home to the biggest concentration of work by the architect and designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Discover his Art Nouveau style at Mackintosh House. No visit to Glasgow would be complete without a trip to one of the many museums and galleries. Housed in an iconic red sandstone building that sits next to the beautiful Kelvingrove Park, Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum is consistently one of Scotland's most popular attractions.

 

The Garfield Hotel BW ***

 

Do business or pleasure in style at The Best Western Garfield House Hotel. The hotel is near to Glasgow meaning you're close to the hustle and bustle of the major city. However, in this delightful village location of Stepps you'll be a world away from the stresses of everyday life. As part of Scotland's central belt, Stepps itself makes for a quiet, peaceful retreat, but you're still only 5 miles away from the excitement and sights that Glasgow has to offer. The beautiful Edinburgh is also within easy driving reach.

 

The hotels three-star bedrooms are excellent value for money, whilst nearby points of interest make the hotel an attractive spot for leisure guests. The Garfield House Hotel's meeting and conference facilities are excellent, and particularly suited to those on a working weekend or a team-building tour, in need of an escape from the busy office.

 

In the en-suite twin rooms expect all the modern touches including an LED TV with built-in Freeview, free high-speed WiFi, tea/coffee making facilities, and a comfortable work space.
