The Kelpies are a magnificent sight. We have stayed at The Woods Caravan Park, the facilities there are terrific. Good Restaurant. Thanks for sharing 👍
Hi guys just found this video as we are heading to the kelpies for the first time even though we have been to Scotland many times, lots of information and tips for people, big hugs from us 6!!! Hope you’re both well!
Hope you have a lovely time at the Kelpies, we would have loved to see it lit up at night too but was lovely to visit in the day and have a wander about - we enjoyed the Falkirk wheel too (if that’s your thing) and not too far apart - have fun! All the very best, David & Rachel 👍❤️
It’s a lovely site and great to have a restaurant at the entrance too for a treat. We would love to see the Kelpies at night at some point too. Have a great weekend, all the best, David & Rachel ❤️
A really interesting idea. It’s great that you include dog related issues in your reviews. We have three small dogs so it’s always good to know what the dog walking is like. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you. Pleased it’s been useful to cover regarding dogs, it’s something we always try to find a suitable site with somewhere to take Roxy for a walk. It’s a shame some places don’t allow dogs inside as in the rain or poor weather it would be a problem for us as we wouldn’t want to leave her in the van and go out for dinner. All the best, David & Rachel 👍
I have seen plenty of vlogs on the Falkirk Wheel but this is the first I’ve seen the boat trip from inside and out. I also saw the Kelpies in Rick and Heather’s video so this is also on our to do list. It was nice to see there is a good campsite not too far away with somewhere to eat. Take care Gill
Thanks Gill, we had a lovely time there and had been on the to do list for us for some time - definitely recommend all of it - was fantastic. All the best, David & Rachel 👍
Really want to go to the Kelpies. Ooh free parking too! Wow the wheel looked amazing! Such a great trip. Are dogs allowed on the wheel? Site looked very nice. Looked great for Roxy too along the old railway track. ( once you got there) very nice 👍😊🧙♂️
Yes the free parking was great. The Kelpies up close are really amazing and would definitely recommend, the wheel was a good experience too and not too far from the Kelpies. Dogs are allowed on the wheel, there were a couple on when I was on. We like The Woods as it was handy and had everything we wanted after wandering around the wheel and Kelpies, thank you, all the best, David & Rachel 👍
The wheel definitely looks like a great piece of engineering and great footage from inside and outside. Love the Kelpies, we managed to park at the top for free as there was an event on that even5so they had closed the bottom carpark so a great bonus. The campsite also looked very nice e, clean and tidy with great views.
Thanks Tim, we had a lovely day, so pleased we visited. Great you got to park at the top car park at the Kelpies for free. All the best, David & Rachel 👍
Bet that boat ride was fantastic, what a lovely place. Always wanted to go there after seeing Bob Earnshaw and Jenny there a few years ago i think. The Kelpies look awesome, seen pictures of them at night, amazing :-)
Yes it was great the ride on the boat - well worth it I think as an experience - you will have to let me know your thoughts when you get around to going. You’re right ref Kelpies - would like to see them at night next time 👍 All the best, David & Rachel
Hi both, what a great day out both attractions, Andy Scott’s miniature Kelpies used to be at the Falkirk Wheel area, down near the jetty, he made them first to get get funding for the main project. They are fantastic ech?? Glad you are enjoying Scotland, weather looks not bad either. Have fun, cheers, Mike🍷🍷
Thanks Mike, really enjoyed going to see them - another dimension seeing them in real life rather than on film up close. We did pass them when we hired the Motorhome in 2020 but it was great to see them specifically - the little ones were cute - didn’t know they had moved from the wheel, great to hear the story. All the best, David & Rachel 👍
You’re right, It looks magical when you see photos or video of them illuminated, I can only imagine if you are there it’s even more special (similar to in the day something special you just can’t capture unless you are actually there). Right time of year after Hoddom to see them in the dark, we happened to be there almost at the longest day 😀 Thanks again to you both for the inspiration from your Scotland series in ‘21 to visit them, it feels such a long time ago and was originally planned for us to do pretty much the trip we’ve done this year last year so has been on the list since your vlog 👍 Anyway, great excuse to go back again isn’t it All the best, David & Rachel 👍
Thank you - I think we may have missed that one - I was just chatting to Rachel as I recall it from the last time we went to Scotland vaguely but think the Sat Nav sent us on a detour this time so don’t recall it - thanks for the heads up as has us intrigued now so will look out for it next time we pass. All the best, David & Rachel 👍
Thank you - will look out for them, I’m going to check my old photos and see if we got a snap of them. I think I saw the M8 one if I’m not mistaken last time also.

Lovely site isn’t it and we were really impressed with the Kelpies (and the Falkirk wheel) - thank you - all the best, David & Rachel 👍

I live near The Woods and used to work at the Kelpies, which I love. The Wheel is an amazing piece of engineering
It’s amazing area and engineering - thanks for the comment - all the best, David & Rachel 👍
I like the content of this video which is packed with beautiful sceneries. That's really awesome.😀👍👍
Thank you - really appreciate the comment - all the best, David & Rachel 👍
@@LeisureBit You are welcome.🙏🙌🙌🙏
Like the look of that caravan park 👍 The Kelpies at night is on my wish list 😊 Thanks for sharing, Em xx
It’s a lovely site and great to have a restaurant at the entrance too for a treat. We would love to see the Kelpies at night at some point too.
Have a great weekend, all the best, David & Rachel ❤️
Another great video, this was cool to see the Kelpies! what a lovely park The woods was! Great to see and thanks for the show around!
Thank you - It’s a beautiful area to visit and we had a lovely day and evening - all the best, David & Rachel 👍
Thanks for taking me back to the kelpies and falkirk wheel. I liked your guided walking tour, great idea. ATB, Sue.
The Kelpies and Falkirk wheel are great aren’t they we were so pleased we went. Thank you - appreciated - all the best, David & Rachel 👍
Excellent info as usual - thanks David and Rachel for sharing this with us😀 the facilities and cleanliness at the site look first class.
Thank you for the comment - really appreciated. The site was great and facilities too. All the best, David, Rachel & Roxy 👍❤️🐾

Wow I had never realised how commercialised the Falkirk wheel was, looks like they squeeze every penny out of that site. Travel safe cheers K.
Was a nice experience to go on but you are right it is very commercialised - I was pleased to get the free parking though 😃 all the best, David

Thank you for sharing. Very useful as we’re looking to head up that way at the end of September.
Thank you - really pleased it’s been useful - I’m sure you will have an amazing time when you visit in September - all the best, David & Rachel 👍
@@LeisureBit we’ve already planned a longer time there as there is far more to do than we realised👍👍
Nice film 👍 not visited any of those yet
Thank you - well worth a visit - we had a lovely day - all the best, David & Rachel 👍
You really need to stop overnight at the Kelpies and see them in the dark. We’ll be going again after Hoddom 🏴☠️🖤

You would have passed another of Andy Scott’s sculpture just at Cumbernauld …..an angel
Thank you - I think we may have missed that one - I was just chatting to Rachel as I recall it from the last time we went to Scotland vaguely but think the Sat Nav sent us on a detour this time so don’t recall it - thanks for the heads up as has us intrigued now so will look out for it next time we pass.

You pronounced not too bad
Fall Kirk. Then socky
@@LeisureBit he’s also got one on m8 and one in Dunbar
Thank you - will look out for them, I’m going to check my old photos and see if we got a snap of them. I think I saw the M8 one if I’m not mistaken last time also.
