This visitor centre is situated in the heart of Beecraigs Country Park, a 370-hectare nature reserve in Lanarkshire, Scotland. The centre offers interactive exhibits and displays that showcase the park's rich history, geology, and wildlife. Visitors can explore the surrounding countryside through various walking trails, including the scenic Beecraigs Trail, which takes you through ancient woodland and alongside the River Nethan. The centre also features a café, shop, and picnic areas, making it an ideal spot for families and nature enthusiasts alike.
Very very disappointed with the service received in the cafe. We (3 adults and 3 children - 18 months, 2 years and 5 years) visited the cafe to have some drinks and buy some food. We were not allowed to even sit down not to talk of being served. We were asked to leave the Cafe as they only serve 5 people to a table not 6. We bought coffee and bottled drinks and left for a walk instead. We came back to the Cafe later as we were all hungry. We were forced to buy a take away lunch and sit outside to eat as we were refused admission due to our numbers. Immediately after we sat to eat, it started raining. We packed our food and ran inside. We were then chased out the cafe and refused entry even though there were five empty tables. We were made to sit in the corridor by the toilet to eat our food in order to avoid the rain. The kids had to sit on the dirty floor to finish their lunch. This was very distressing, disgusting and disturbing for the kids and us adults. I was unable to sit on the floor due to my double knee replacement. It was very humiliating for us. No one should be treated in this manner. We were treated very unfairly and discriminated against. Its crazy the staff were more focused on their weird procedures that made no sense than the experience and decent treatment of their customers. Particularly in the setting of a national park!
Great choice of menu. Fresh. Soup - lovely & good consistency, scones (huge & flavoursome), fab
