Overview

The aesthetics of horses always appeal to me and always wanted to visited this place for ages but it's really hard to get to on public transport, luckily I was in a friends car and as we passed by we popped in - result! It was a really nice day (though during our visit we did experience a sudden downpour - though it made for good atmospheric photos!), everyone was out and about enjoying the sculptures.

Transport & Parking

4

Regardless of the lack of public transport, getting there is quite straightforward. The park was really busy when we got there about 3pm on a Thursday afternoon in August. My friend has a blue badge and the person at the car park entrance mentioned we could park at the visitor centre, very close to the sculptures. We just had to give a £3 deposit, get a card and then give it back on return. The was about 8 accessible bays. Another option of getting there is to walk about 45mins from Falkirk along the canal.

Access

The access is pretty good, visitor centre and cafe all on one level and step free. The paths around the sculptures are wide and you can get to most places via a ramp (though you do have to come back on yourselves a few times if your dependant on the ramps). Paths and surfaces were easy to walk on. Just watch out for the kids going racket.

Good accessible loo in the visitor centre.

Didn't really interact with any but those on the front desk at the visitor centre seemed welcoming and had smiles.

Anything else you wish to tell us?

The statues are really impressive and worth a look up close!
