Really tagged along as we went round but became converted. A trip on a ghost train type ride was very clever and learning about Robert Owen fascinating. Cafe average and the shop with souvenirs the usual tatt.
Nevertheless, worth the money - but you may need a satnav to find it, and escape from it.

Thanks 'darbishire' for the 5-star rating and for taking the time to review your visit on TripAdvisor. Glad that you found the history fascinating and enjoyed the Annie McLeod Experience ride. Oh and about satnav - the best satnav code is ML11 9BY.

We've been coming here almost yearly since I first visited with my primary school and I never get tired of it.
Parking is at the top of the hill and a large, free car park. Parking in the village itself is for those with disabilities only (the main car park is at the top of a very steep hill so...

Wow 'Azlak' thank you for such a comprehensive and detailed review of New Lanark Visitor Centre - you definitely have visited many times. New Lanark is such a unique place and it has many fans who come back time and again. Some of our repeat visitors and residents remember the site before the restoration project started. As you mention the...

So we finally got round to visiting this UNESCO World heritage site and it was well worth the wait! I would recommend paying to enter the visitor centre and other mills and the Annie McLeod experience is something different, especially good for kids. However it is worth noting that if you don't have money you don't need to pay to...

Thank you 'Louise O' for taking the time to write about your visit and delighted that you enjoyed your time and met the friendly staff in New Lanark Visitor Centre. The walks along the Falls of Clyde are 'amazing' as you say. Oh and we all agree about the tablet in the Mill Pantry coffee shop - it's made onsite...

Thanks 'tourerman' for the 5-Star review and delighted that you enjoyed it so much you decided to return for a second visit. The walk along the Falls of Clyde is stunning, especially when the sun is shining, and when it's not there's always plenty to see and so in the Visitor Centre. The Peregrine's are amazing birds and it's great...

Thanks for adding your '5-Star' review. 'Brimming over with enthusiam' - well we couldn't ask for anything more. It's a great all-weather site as visitors can take a walk along to see the Falls of Clyde for some wildlife spotting when the sun is out, or take advantage of the many indoor exhibition areas on a rainy day. The team...

Unbelievably beautiful place. You descend into the Clyde valley for what seems like forever then suddenly you see it. The buildings are magnificent. We stayed at the Scottish Youth Hostel which was really comfortable. All rooms are ensuite & you can have breakfast & dinner prepared for you at very low cost. A walk to the Falls of Clyde (comfortable...

We stayed at the New Lanark Hotel for 2 nights on a special offer including DB&B. It included free tickets for the Visitor Centre and the sites. All of which is part of the Heritage Site. The tickets allow access to 4 locations so we did 2 each day which gave us time to enjoy the experience and have time...

Thanks 'OldBear' for the review. Delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay and visit. The hotel's World Heritage Package was a good option as it included entry to the visitor centre, which you took time to discover.
