Elliott](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/102615091560375132657/reviews) ★★★★★ Lovely place. Theatre is magical. Staff are so passionate about what they do. Really nice experience. Cafe is lovely, home baking is delicious. · via Google [Marcin](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/118104722391611910949/reviews) ★★★★★ Biggar Puppet Theatre is located between two major Scottish cities, which provides quite easy access from densely populated areas. It's beautifully located and it's definitely one of these very unique places worth visiting. It turns out to be a family business with creativity in its heart. Ian, the founder of this theatre, talked about the history of it and led people to take their places. It's an old Victorian building converted to be a theatre with distinctive ornaments inside. The show, which I attended with my family, was a mix of traditional puppetry and use of the contemporary technology. It appeared to be very enjoyable but could have had a much more meaningful storyline. Halfway through the show there was an interval, which appeared to be almost half an hour long, so visitors could have their brunch. Though, from my perspective it's far too long for the audience of this age. I would have rather stayed for lunch after the performance. Nevertheless, it's great place to visit with kids and I would strongly recommend it to everyone. Book tickets in advance. It has amazing outdoor area for a picnic with kids when it's warmer outside. · via Google [Susan Norton-McStay](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/102892003634047473792/reviews) ★★★★★ A Doors open day opportunity to visit. A family run puppet theatre for all ages. To get a look around the theatre and learn about its history was really interesting. Also, a treat to see part of a small show. There was also a cafe, visitors shop and an antique sale. The staff were very friendly and nothing was any bother. Well worth going to a puppet show. · via Google [Dennis Wilson](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/118210890534881552857/reviews) ★★★★★ The cafe is reasonably priced, as are the tickets. The staff are friendly and child centred. It is clear the theatre is well loved · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x4887e34becfcf0d7:0xbfd15b5b431f9469!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ## At a glance **Address** Park Road, Biggar, ML12 6AN [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=55.6242690%2C-3.5145926) **Category** Cinema & Theatre **Guest rating** 4.9 / 5 (122 reviews) **Suitable for** Ages 0-12 **Setting** Indoor **Good for children** Yes **Toilets on site** Yes **Destination** Biggar [More attractions in Biggar](https://staycation.co.uk/biggar/attractions) ★ 4.9 (122 reviews) [Visit official website](https://www.purvespuppets.com/?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=attraction) [01899 220631](tel:01899220631) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Biggar **Postcode** ML12 6AN **Payment** Cards, Contactless **Plus Code** 9C7RJFFP+P5 [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x4887e34becfcf0d7:0xbfd15b5b431f9469!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x4887e34becfcf0d7:0xbfd15b5b431f9469!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [Write a review ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x4887e34becfcf0d7:0xbfd15b5b431f9469!12e1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Biggar Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
