Touring around Scotland from the Glasgow Pond
Enjoy a good quality Glasgow city hotel experience, in our fashionable Glasgow west end location, yet convenient for the city centre, close to the M8 motorway, the A82 route to Loch Lomond and the Highlands (making us a superb sightseeing base) and the Clyde Tunnel. We are 20 minutes from Glasgow Airport, 10 minutes from SECC and Glasgow University, and adjacent to Gartnavel Hospital. Bustling Byres Road and Glasgow's west end is a short walk
Glasgow is a simply fantastic base for touring the very best of Scotland and the Scottish Highlands
If you are planning to visit Scotland and the city of Edinburgh then you’ll find the range of day tours and sightseeing trips, whether organised or self drive, and short touring breaks, the ideal complement to your stay in Glasgow. Sightseeing tours are the perfect way to explore the real Scotland - a land of fairytale castles, picturesque lochs and spectacular scenery.
You can choose to visit Loch Ness and Inverness - or St Andrews and Fife,Perthshire, Stirling Castle and Loch Lomond - both popular one-day tours. Or why not travel further afield - the beauty of the Isle of Skye, the remote yet picturesque surroundings of the Applecross Peninsula and nature watching in a lonely Highland glen are just some of the delights that await you
And there are many touring companies, based in Glasgow, with easy and fast access to both who can meet our visitors on their arrival in Scotland
