Loved the falls and the whole area, the mills, the Annie MacLeod Experience and the gift shop. A friend got married there and her photos were fantastic with the old buildings and scenery

The walk up the falls was beautiful. We were fortunate to visit on a day that the powerplant was down so the water level was very high and made the falls gorgeous!

As long as it's not raining, there is a lovely walk beside the falls. A bit slippy, so be careful. But well worth the peace and quiet, just lostening to birds sing etc.

Family go here quite often and it is a great day out. There are fab walks up the side of the falls and challenging ones if you like a hike. There is plenty to see and do at the old mill too. The hotel has a really nice restaurant and bar meals (Restaurant is a bit pricey but good).

What a lovely surprise. I was working in Glasgow, and the falls were recommended to me, and I have to say I was not disappointed. I went there on a beautiful evening after work, and was enthralled. I plan to return and spend more time exploring as I felt there was more to see. Definitely a must see!!!
