Charles Rennie Mackintosh Teàrlach Rennie Mac an Tòisich

01

Charles Rennie Mackintosh is one of the most renowned architects and designers of the 20th century. His work and legacy is celebrated throughout the city and beyond, so you can see for yourself the beautiful and lasting mark he left, from exquisite pieces of furniture in museums to a graceful building which can be discovered in a city park.

The Glasgow School of Art became the centre of the art movement in Scotland and soon the ‘Glasgow Style‘ was born, created by a group known as ‘the Four’ – Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Herbert MacNair and sisters, Margaret and Frances MacDonald.

The School of Art is considered to be Mackintosh’s masterpiece and it is still a working art school today. The style of the building demonstrates Mackintosh’s hallmark Art Nouveau style while the interiors include furniture, drawings and paintings

by Mackintosh.

06

The Lighthouse, on Mitchell Lane, is one of Mackintosh’s earliest buildings and was originally designed as the Glasgow Herald newspaper offices. Now home to Scotland’s Centre for Design & Architecture, it includes a fascinating Mackintosh Interpretation Centre and the Mackintosh Tower, which offers wonderful views.

You can also see a new exhibition of Mackintosh designs that unfortunately were never built.

At the beautiful Willow Tea Rooms, you can enjoy afternoon tea just as it was taken in the same rooms 100 years ago, seated on one of Mackintosh’s famous high-backed chairs.

For information on accommodation and things to see and do, go to www.visitscotland.com

Queen’s Cross Church is a Mackintosh design which opened in 1899. See the magnificent stained glass windows which capture the light and the exceptional wood and stone carvings of this building which is now the international headquarters of the Charles Rennie Mackintosh Society.

At the University of Glasgow’s Hunterian Art Gallery is the Mackintosh House. Astonishingly, the home Mackintosh shared with his wife at 6 Florentine Terrace has been meticulously reassembled at this site.

As well as admiring the magnificent external design, explore the breathtaking rooms, which feature high-back chairs, oval shapes and floral inserts.

Outside of Glasgow, Helensburgh is home to another stunning Mackintosh-designed property, the Hill House. Sitting high above the River Clyde, it is home to original furniture and interior design and also has formal gardens designed in the Mackintosh style.

Fascinating fact Around a third of all Turner Prize winners are alumni of The Glasgow School of Art.

Glasgow is a hub of creativity and, as such, has a breathtaking choice of art galleries and museums, with collections ranging from the ancient and prehistoric to the freshest talent emerging from The Glasgow School of Art. Work by some of the world’s most renowned artists can be found in beautiful buildings across the city. The hardest part is deciding where to start.

In Glasgow, there’s a tradition that art is for the people, and you’ll find over 20 fantastic art galleries, museums and other attractions which are free to visit. Look out for the beautiful city centre architecture, which combines Medieval, Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian, Art Deco and 21st century styles – and, of course, designs by Charles Rennie Mackintosh.

The Glasgow School of Art is a leading force in contemporary art and offers a year-round programme of events, talks and exhibitions. Its programme is complemented by the independent studios at Trongate 103, a dedicated centre for the arts and creativity in the heart of the Merchant City.

The vast Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum is one of Scotland’s most-visited attractions.

Victorian gems to seek out include the Kibble Palace, a magnificent glasshouse in the Botanic Garden, the Tenement House in Garnethill, which offers a snapshot into life in Victorian Glasgow, the splendid City Chambers which dominates George Square, and a number of Greek and Egyptian-inspired buildings created by Alexander ‘Greek’ Thomson.

Whether you want to enjoy exhilarating activities such as sailing and cycling, or simply want to take a quiet walk along the wonders of a canal, this region has it all, outside the city and within.

Scotland’s largest regional park, Clyde Muirshiel, sits to the west of the region and offers activities such as sailing, kayaking and wildlife watching – be sure to look out for one of the UK’s rarest breeding birds, the hen harrier. The RSPB Nature Reserve at Lochwinnoch is one of the few wetlands left in west Scotland. This is a great place to marvel at the region’s wildlife with whooper swans, wigeons and great crested grebes.

Nearby is Lunderston Bay, an award-winning beach which is the closest to Glasgow. Enjoy a quiet stroll along the sand, or let the kids stop to make sand castles, fly kites and soak up the sea air.

Sailing is a very popular sport off the west coast of Scotland. Inverclyde has some great marinas such as Kip Marina, which has a range of services, offering berthing, servicing and a chartroom. The James Watt Dock Marina, which was opened in 2011 also has visitor berths. Both marinas are in a great location and have excellent transport links.

Children and adults will be enthralled as they walk past boats, marinas and Roman and Iron Age forts.

Reserve. Take a riverside walk to see the magnificent waterfalls and look out for more than 100 species of bird and the resident otters.

Beyond the city you’ll find many special outdoor spaces, but you can also find an extraordinary variety of parks and gardens in the city of Glasgow, which translates from Gaelic as the ‘dear green place’.

Head to the sprawling Pollok Country Park, just 3 miles southwest of the city centre, and you could be forgiven for thinking you’re deep in the country.

Extensive woodlands, activities, and its own russet herd of Highland cattle have helped it scoop awards as both Britain’s and Europe’s best park.

One of Glasgow’s best-loved parks, Kelvingrove enjoys a fine setting on the banks of the River Kelvin and defines the centre of the city’s bohemian West End. Bordered on three sides by grand vistas – the curved residential terraces high on Woodlands Hill, the gothic spire of the University of Glasgow and the red sandstone Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum – it offers one of Glasgow’s most pleasant and most photographed city walks.

Glasgow Green is the city’s oldest park. Its history can be traced back to 1450, when James II granted permission for it to be used as common grazing ground which continued until the 19th century.

Discover more of the city’s history at the People’s Palace, a free museum in the park.

One of the greatest things about Greater Glasgow & The Clyde Valley is the range and variety of events taking place all year round. Cultural, musical and traditional events attract performers from all over the world to Glasgow’s famous stages.

Celtic Connections brings the city alive in January with three weeks of contemporary and traditional Celtic-influenced music in its most diverse forms, from traditional pipes and folk through to American roots and blues.

The Glasgow Film Festival in February presents a fortnight of premieres and red carpet events, all open to the public to join in.

March sees the Aye Write! Book Festival celebrate the best of Scottish and international writers, while the Glasgow International Comedy Festival also gets into full swing – expect some laughs from comedy’s biggest names.

Discover music, theatre, gala days, dance and comedy at the West End Festival in June with choral music, folk, rock and jazz alongside author readings, guided walks and all types of dance. Enjoy an exciting programme of unique and innovative performances, including world premieres, at the Merchant City Festival in July.

In August, witness a winner being crowned at the World Pipe Band Championships at Glasgow Green. In the culmination of a week of events in the Piping Live! festival, more than 200 bands

16

come together in a dazzling sound and vision experience of traditional pipes and drums.

Following on from the football matches of the 2012 Olympics, Glasgow will be holding a number of international sporting events with football, athletics, track cycling and netball.

All these great events will lead on to 2014 when Hampden, Scotland’s national stadium, will hold the athletics events and closing ceremony of the Commonwealth Games.

Why not try something different at the Strathaven Balloon Festival or see the Clyde on foot during the Great Scottish Run? Sample some of the local produce at the FeastRen, East Renfrewshire Food Festival in September with cookery demonstrations, workshops and a farmers’ market.

There are a good number of Highland games, festivals, competitive music events, and waterbased activities taking place all year round. The year culminates in Glasgow Loves Christmas, a programme of events that make Christmas shopping in Glasgow one of the best experiences in the country.

Practical information Fiosrachadh feumail Now is the time to choose your holiday accommodation This guide has been split into five accommodation sections for Greater Glasgow & The Clyde Valley.

• Hotels and Inns • Guest Houses and B&Bs • Self Catering • Camping and Caravan Parks • Hostels/Activity Accommodation Establishments are listed within these sections in alphabetical order by location and then by business name. Each entry has a map reference (see example) relating to the maps which appear on pages 44-47 of this guide. The maps are helpful if you don’t know where a particular town is in relation to the area that interests you. Where establishments are listed as ‘By’ a city, town or village it is wise to check the exact location online and with the operator before making your journey.

Some listings have a distance beside the location; this indicates the approximate road distance in miles from the location. These mileages are voluntarily provided by the businesses themselves.

Booking Accepting accommodation by telephone or in writing means you have entered into a legally binding contract with the proprietor of the establishment. If you cancel or fail to take up that accommodation, for whatever reason, the proprietor generally has the right to ask for compensation.

You should always check the cancellation terms in advance and, if you must cancel a booking, advise the management immediately. Online bookings are also subject to terms and conditions; please check direct with the provider for these.

Insurance and cancellations Should you have to cancel for any reason, it is reassuring to know that you can be insured against any compensation claim. Please ensure you take out cancellation insurance prior to your trip.

Pricing The prices of accommodation, services and facilities stated in this guide are based on information received from the relevant advertisers.

Please note that prices include VAT where applicable and are for your guidance only (VAT as at November 2012). Please check prices when you book accommodation and confirm exactly what the quoted price includes.

Smoking The majority of Scotland’s indoor public places, including pubs, restaurants and cafés, are smokefree by law, creating a healthier and fresher environment for residents and visitors to our beautiful country. Hotels, B&Bs and guest houses are also smoke-free but can designate bedrooms where guests can smoke, if they wish to do so.

To check the availability of such bedrooms, please check with the establishment directly when booking. For further information, visit www.clearingtheairscotland.com

ü Look out for the short breaks symbol Greater Glasgow & The Clyde Valley offer a fabulous range of quality assured accommodation as listed on pages 22-38. Establishments which display the above symbol offer short breaks.

Contact them direct for current special offers or to make a booking.

E Assistance Dogs The new Equality Act 2010 protects anybody who has or has had a disability and people who experience discrimination because they are linked or associated with a disabled person.

In respect of assistance dogs the law quite clearly states that to refuse admission to a registered assistance dog is now unlawful and constitutes discrimination under the Equality Act 2012 under three possible categories: 1: discrimination arising from a disability; 2: indirect discrimination and 3: disability harassment. VisitScotland is committed to equality of opportunity and is

working through its Accessible Tourism Project to educate and inform all our customers about the requirements under the law. We have encouraged all our business customers to use the assistance dog symbol in order to comply with law, or make it clear in a statement that they welcome all assistance dogs. It is always advisable to check with each establishment prior to booking.

v Hearing Loop Induction loop and infrared systems help people with hearing loss hear more clearly by reducing the effect of background noise. When a building has been fitted with a loop or infrared system, you will usually find this mentioned in their adverts, newsletters and at the entrance to the building.

Informative signs and symbols should be displayed such as the loop sign above, it is always worth asking if it is not obvious. Please note this icon is not verified by VisitScotland Quality and Standards Department. , Dogs Welcome Dogs are welcome to this establishment, on the understanding that they are on their leash and are kept under control. You may have to check with each establishment whether there are restricted areas for your dog. Please note this icon is not verified by VisitScotland Quality and Standards Department. ù Gaelic In this area some/most of the population speak the Gaelic language (as well as English), so if you wish to stay with Gaelic speakers please look out for the symbol within entries and ask when you book your accommodation to confirm that this is available. The Gaelic language is rich in tradition, history, music, and culture, and will add an interesting dimension and unique sense of place to your holiday.
