Family Fun
Starting in Gourock take a dip in our fantastic, outdoor, heating swimming pool. Right on the waterfront with spectacular views, the heated, filtered pool is open to the public from May – Oct and is only 1 of only 2 in Scotland.
After your swim take a short stroll along Kempock Street for a variety of eateries catering from all tastes, with lovely coffee shops offering sea views.
At Gourock Train station you can arrange cycle hire to further explore the area, cycle along the water front towards Lunderston Bay, the local beach with stunning views and on a nice day paddling in the water in a must. Alternatively cycle towards Greenock, round the bay, through Battery Park and on to the Esplanade. A 2 mile flat stretch of uninterrupted views of the Clyde, perfect for a walk or cycle, with a traditional Italian ice cream shop at the end for a well-deserved treat.
For the golfers in the family, there are 6 golf courses in the area that would welcome day visitors. The nearest one would be Gourock which has a state of the art indoor golf academy as well as a challenging 18 hole course with phenomenal views. Children are welcome and the club house serves food all day.
For younger children looking for space to run and play, Battery Park has lots of open space to tire the little ones out with a large play area. Adjacent to the park there is Elev8, an indoor trampoline park both open 7 days a week.
In the centre of Greenock there is the Waterfront leisure complex, a large indoor complex, offering a large indoor pool complete with flumes, waves and a children’s splash area. There is a gym, ice rink for skating and coffee shop, located right next door to the cinema, so there is something for everyone.
We hope you enjoy your day with the family in Inverclyde. There is so much to see and do.
