Neighbourhood information

Glasgow Green is the main park for Glasgow City which was originally established in the 15th century and is the oldest park in Glasgow. It is used for the major events in Glasgow such as the Highland Games, Festivals and major music concerts etc. The park draws a wide audience and Glagsow Tour buses route through the park to showcase the People’s Palace and an ornate terracotta fountain which is the largest and best example of its kind in the world. The People’s Palace houses botanical and tropical plants and is free to enter. There is also a popular café inside. There is also a German beer hall on Glasgow Green which brews on-site. There is a great children’s play area opposite the apartment on Glasgow Green and further along the park there is another Child's Play Village. From the apartment it’s just a short walk around the corner to St Andrews Square and then, a further 150 meters along (2 min walk), you are at the vibrant Merchant City with its mixture of trendy and refined bars and restaurants and theatre. And if you want to experience a real old fashioned Glasgow pub then there are plenty to visit within 200 meters of the apartment.
