Best 2 hours of my day, learnt so much from passionate and knowledgeable Alice. I feel better equipped to push my garden further towards supporting nature as a whole ecosystem. Thank you · via Google [Brian Muir](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/117271594096972362394/reviews) ★★★★★ Wonderful peaceful place to go for a walk and take in some nature. This area is my go to place locally for walking the dogs, pathways are extensive and mixed, in relatively good condition (although some eroded by River Clyde) and currently there is obviously some work going on to provide markers and new information boards. If visiting please take your litter with you, I often see volunteers cleaning it up which they shouldn’t have to. · via Google [Paul Wilkinson](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/113662688094731994756/reviews) ★★★★★ It is an absolutely beautiful place for a walk. As well as the lovely scenery there are plenty of nooks and crannies to explore. There is a lovely graveyard dating from the 17th century, a mausoleum, gardens, a walkway along the river Clyde and various bird hides. The castle itself is huge however it is private and you cannot go in. I would highly recommend Dalzell and Barons Haugh. If you head down early in the morning there are always plenty of deer wandering around. · via Google [Bill B](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/117188104039113602372/reviews) ★★★★★ Nice walk through the woodland. Great place for watching wildlife. On our recent trip saw some deer and a bird of prey, not sure what type, perhaps a buzzard. Wear suitable shoes as it can get wet and muddy. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x488814ae5b5950b3:0x987cda4bdcb549f6!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ## At a glance **Address** Manse Road, Motherwell, ML1 2PZ [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=55.7714984%2C-3.9958916) **Category** National Parks & Reserves **Guest rating** 4.5 / 5 (237 reviews) **Suitable for** Ages 4+ **Setting** Outdoor **Good for children** Yes **Destination** Motherwell [More attractions in Motherwell](https://staycation.co.uk/motherwell/attractions) ★ 4.5 (237 reviews) [Visit official website](https://www.rspb.org.uk/baronshaugh?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=attraction) [01413 310993](tel:01413310993) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Motherwell **Postcode** ML1 2PZ **Plus Code** 9C7RQ2C3+HJ [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x488814ae5b5950b3:0x987cda4bdcb549f6!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x488814ae5b5950b3:0x987cda4bdcb549f6!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [Write a review ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x488814ae5b5950b3:0x987cda4bdcb549f6!12e1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Motherwell Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
