I parked in "Parking Lot" found to the left of Pollok House on Google Maps and run by Ring Go at £2.80 for 4 hours using their app. Free to National Trust members if you go to the house to claim a ticket. Fabulous huge park. Fabulous house. Nice cafe in the basement with inside and outdoor seating. And now, in May 2023, the daffs have finished, bluebells are coming azaleas and rhododendrons are blossoming.

It is one of the greatest places in Pollok, a great house with fabulous gardens. The view is amazing. There are many seats around the house, so just set and chill and enjoy the great view. You can see the house from outside, the gardens and all other outside facilities for free. However, to see the house from inside, you need a ticket. And you can buy them upon arrival. I couldn't enter the house from inside because my phone was not charged, and it was about to switch off. There will be more photos for the next visit. Highly recommended.

A gem of a place in the middle of a green oasis South of central Glasgow. Pollock Park is the place for a walk, a picnic, a run, a dog walk, a family reunion, a wedding photo shoot, for fairy visiting, for rolling on the grass, for admiring fresh salads growing at ease and for bumblebee and bird spotting. Fie the house, there is an entrance fee if you'd like to visit, but it is well worth a visit if only to talk to a bunch of very knowledgeable volunteers and peek into a servant's undeground life. Also, there are a lot of fluffy highland cows on the pastures surrounding it.

Beautiful house in beautiful surroundings, staff were very friendly and informative, due to current times as with many National Trust properties they are struggling to survive so please visit and help them out👍

Never seen so many highland cows is one place. Its an awesome family day out. Cows are very friendly, the play park is fab.

So beautiful! A must visit !!!!! Take a picnic and sit by the canal, it's absolutely stunning and such fresh wild flowers !! Entry fee is 7.50 for adults but worth the history and a look at the cafe downstairs! Great food for people with dietary requirements and just plain delicious! Had an avocado cake which was heaven!!

Beautiful house and gardens. Very nice place for relaxing family time.

Pollok House is an NTS property situated close to the Burrell Collection. It is a splendid house with downstairs open for viewing during our visit. Parking is free for Trust members or £10 for all day, £5 for four hours plus app add on of 40p. Access for cars has been recently changed (in 2023), and cars can no longer travel through the park from the Burrell to Pollok House. There is no free parking at the Burrell for Trust members. The gardens are lovely to stroll around but some looked very weedy and overgrown and other parts needed restoration back to their former glory. There are dozens of substantial park benches to enjoy the peace of the place. The river flows past and there are many wooded walks with many modern benches to take a wee rest. It's definitely worth a visit.

Stunning architecture with extraordinary interiors and beautiful gardens. I'm surprised this place isn't more popular among locals and tourists — it's a must-visit for anyone in Glasgow. The only letdowns would be the peeling paint inside, the disappointing second floor (what presumably used to be the sleeping quarters, but is now an uninteresting gallery) and the insufficiently presented servants floor. Nonetheless, a wonderful sight, especially with highland cattle on its doorstep.

It's a good place to go out for the day and learn about the city's and the area's past . Lovely and peaceful. Super fresh air. Walking + Biking trails. Woodland trails. Lot's of things to do ...

Such a stunning place. So glad we visited it before it closes in November. Staff were great and answered any questions we had.

Fab walk around the gardens. Not open on a monday but the cafe was with fabulous turkey and cranberry sauce baggets and soup. Followed by lovely scone butter and pot of jam. Very impressed.

Visited Pollok House for the first time , Very Beautiful peacefull place with calming waterfall sounds with endless photographic opportunities

This is the best old house in Scotland. With art exhibits, traditional furniture and expert staff, all guests are impressed. The grounds and gardens are also vast and wide with Hairy Coos roaming many fields. The only thing I’d like more of is Pollock and Maxwell tartans, crests and other traditional clan items for purchase. All hail the Pollock and Maxwell clans.

Nice to finally get round to visiting Pollok House despite having lived nearby for many years. The ancestral home of the affluent Stirling Maxwell family, it's almost like a stately home with some beautifully furnished rooms. The collection of Spanish paintings is a real gem, especially as it's unusual to find such a collection of El Greco, Goya and Murillo outside of Spain. The basement (of course) used to be the servants quarters and the museum has done a fantastic job preserving the Victorian design or the kitchen. The two upper floors were occupied by the Maxwell family and lavishly decorated. I especially liked the Cedar room for it's cosiness. That entrance is free to national trust members.

Pollock house and gardens is such a beautiful, pleasant and peaceful place. Of course, this is National Trust site so was really well maintained, clean and looked after. We had originally planned to see the gardens, the house, the galleries and a special visit to see the Highland coos in one trip, but ended up deciding to split it up over several visits. This change in plan came about due to the remarkable weather, and quite stunning gardens and woodlands. You almost felt like child again, exploring nooks and crannies, discovering secret dens and door ways. Everything was so well maintained and looked after, we walked around for a good couple of hours. The wee cafe is also fascinating with its old world look and feel, the staff were so pleasant and happy and the food on offer was exactly what you'd hope and want from this sort of place. I had a top notch ploughmans lunch, and my wife had a filling brie and bacon seeded roll. We went to see the cows too... (this was my favourite bit... I swear to god, someone brushes their fringes in the morning). Well the outside was enough to fill our day, especially with a little sun bathing under a tree by the river and cant wait to return to see the galleries and inside Pollock House itself.

Exquisite Georgian house of the Maxwell family, 1 of Glasgow's most historic lines. In need of some interior restoration, it has a splendid art collection too.

Nice lunch in the cafe then enjoyed a visit to the house, and a walk in the grounds.

Beautiful house and gardens complete with wild deer and highland cows (they love oak leaves and will eat them from your hand)

Great place for a walk or to take the dog. Lots of different routes. The house itself has a coffee shop and toilets. Good for families. Parking is limited so just be aware of that when coming at the weekend or when the sun is out.

Lovely house and grounds. Cafe good. Been busy during Covid and avoiding people been a priority.

I love Pollok park, not matter what time if year....if you live in the Glasgow area add this to your list of favourite places to go....the spring,summer and autumn colours of nature are stunning, and the highland cattle are fabulous!!

A beautifully restored period mansion.

My favourite park ❤ 😍 💕

The house, gardens and park are ao beautiful. The gardens and park are free to enter. So much to see from Highland cows to herb gardens

Great place for a stroll in the park.

Pollok house is magnificent but its closed just now

Just opened up again and getting set up for Christmas. Really nice visit. Very informed and interesting staff

Amazing scenery

Beautiful place as usually 100% enjoyment kids happy ,unfortunately we missed the horses hope see them in summer.

The experience here was good. I liked the fresh air in the park. The most wanted attractions are the cattles. It's a specific breed that is being raised only in this area. The green views are amazing. I recommend visiting it with friends.

Glorious Sunshine always makes a day out special. Fantastic place. Delicious cakes!

I have visited Pollok House all my life. It is absolutely stunning! Amazing artwork and wonderful staff. It is a huge pity that the National Trust for Scotland will not be involved again. I believe the house will be closed for sometime.

Great park and walks along the riverside

4 days ago the park was there. I think it is still there today...

Stunning scenery. Easy to cycle.

NTS preserved building

This is closed at the present time. The Burrell is closed until spring 2021

What a cool experience. The docent was amazing! Very friendly, informative, and happy to gp off script to give additional background.

Always something fascinating. Superb guides full of information and enthusiasm. Wonderful collection of paintings, furniture and other amazing stuff. Plus the cafe is always a pleasure

Nice house in a beautiful setting. Interesting to see the old rooms and how much staff was needed to run the place.

Picturesque estate within Glasgow city limits. Come for a jog and stay for the scenery

My favorite place to visit in Scotland. What a wonderfully preserved home, with an amazing story and architecture. The trust of Scotland has it well maintained, and I’d like to especially thank our guides Ruth, Margaret, Hannah and Nan who chatted with us and made the visit so memorable. Im shocked we haven’t read more about the history behind it. Loved it!

Most parts are closed until early Jan. But the ones that were open to public were still enjoyable. Had the scones and tea at the cafe which was good

Visited with family every member of staff we came across were so helpful, informative and welcoming it was fantastic! The house is fascinating and well worth a visit. National trust members get free entry and free parking if you go in to the house for a pass when you park. The gardens are beautiful and worth a wander too and the tea room was fab. Great experience thank you!

Amazing place. #1 park in Scotland. Nature in its original form, plus the endless work of the park staff.

Great experience and a fantastic piece of history and architecture. Lovely walk by the river and a nice cafe. Recommended.

Lovely place with great atmosphere. Staff very friendly and helpful. Food seems homemade. Bit slow with bringing drinks to the table.

Lovely gardens and walking areas. Well maintained.

Lots of history and turn of the century artifacts.

Wonderful place, lots of history.

I want to live here

Good temporary exhibitions.

Beautiful inside and out... worth a look

Lovely old house to wander through. Beautiful furnishings and furniture in picturesque surroundings. Cafe has lovely snacks and cakes

Great park for long walks, quite and very diverse trails. It's bike friendly

Excellent place for a family day out, Ideal for nature walks, cycling

Fantastic place

Beautiful and interesting. Could spend the day there.

Really nice place

Decent

Always a great day out - we loved seeing the Highland Coos and their offspring this summer.

Best Park to chill and so much to see! Great day out for the family ?

Very interesting place. Great to see how the other half lived at the turn of the century. Imagine the smell of cigar smoke in the cedar room. Wonderful. The photo of the staff below reminded me of The Shining!

Lovely! Absolutely stunning and well kept. The volunteers dressed in old fashion today and were really helpful by giving out a lot of information. Especially the tour at 11 am with Mike was great! He put so much heart into it :) would recommend going here

I love places like this. Especially in Spring or Summer. It gives me freshness and inspires.

Visited for mrs claus. Brilliant day out and staff were very interactive. Hosue is well kept and some interesting information to be had.

A bit dark in places so hard to see the artwork. Beautifully decorated for Christmas in a Cinderella them - slipper and all. Great scones in the cafe.

Great place to visit been couple of times area around in rest of park is great for kids also plenty walking opportunities available and potential to tire kids of for later result.

Fantastic place for a walk, lovely House.

A very interesting house, with friendly, knowledgeable staff who are very keen to answer any questions about the life in Pollok House. Worth more than one visit to explore all the levels, with talks and activities available. The cafe also must be visited for the delicious coffee and cakes, soup and sandwiches.

We did not go there intentionally but found our selves there after a walk along the river. It was a reasonable priced and surprisingly delightful. The guide were nice and happy to answer any questions we had.

The house is nice to spend a couple of hours in, looking at the extensive artwork collection and learning about the history of the lands and former owner.

Pack of history! Friendly and knowledgeable guide available in the house. Definitely worth a visit! p.s. you can get a cheeky discount if you are a student too!

Nice resteraunt for a light bite. Interesting house with great staff!

Nice place for walk

(Translated by Google) Beautiful house! (Original) Hermosa casa!

Our Tour with Wilma was fantastic, a lot of knowledge about the house and such a friendly person to have take us round on a Tour

Great to visit wonderfully gardens, interesting house with plenty to see and a great restaurant with outside seating.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place, you can visit the rooms and outside each one there is a plaque explaining what used to be done there. More recommended than many castles whose entrance costs more (the entrance to the upper floors of Pollock House costs 7.50 pounds, but the lower floor, cafeteria and shop are free) The cafeteria is a beautiful thing, it used to be the kitchen of home. (Original) Precioso lugar, se pueden visitar las habitaciones y fuera de cada una hay una placa explicando qué se solía hacer allí. Más recomendable que muchos castillos cuya entrada cuesta más (la entrada a los pisos superiores de Pollock House cuesta 7,50 libras, pero el piso inferior, cafetería y tienda son de acceso gratuito) la cafetería es una cosa bellísima, solía ser la cocina de la casa.

Good place to take the family

Nice surroundings and gardens .

Now this is one stunning location pure gem if your visiting Glasgow. if your a visitor become a member of the trust you will save lots cash on your journey visiting some great locations. Lets get back to Polloch House. its a great tour also cafe down stairs serves tea and cakes.

Still had xmas decorations up so was different. Not too busy so could see everything.

It's really quite expensive although it is a beautiful place and the food is exquisite it's ok

Very nice, great cafe

Lovely house, beautiful staircase, interesting information. Wet when I went so didn't explore the grounds. Cafe heaving so skipped that too. Was not as many upstairs rooms open as I'd hoped, and the staff working basement area was more commercial than country house: cafe, loos, buggy store. Nice but probably won't return.

Beautiful place.

Beautiful park

Nice park with riverside woodland walks easy parking

Awesome

Beautiful hose the place has a wonderfull views

It's ok. You think it's going to be better than what it is. Just a big hoose isn't it?
