Make Moments To Remember

You are ideally placed to use the Dams to Darnley Country Park, the newest one in Scotland or else you could hike or bike your way over to the Gleniffer Braes Country Park in Paisley. While a short drive will take you to Rouken Glen or Pollok Country Park which is home to remarkable woodlands, gardens and a country house. The Levern Water is the river that runs through Barrhead and that has helped to feed the town for hundreds of years. It flows from a source in Long Loch and is a hive of activity in the summer. If you and your family are feeling brave you can even kayak down it or just simply picnic beside it or enjoy the many walkways that wind along its length. Barrhead has five primary schools: Carlibar Primary School, Cross Arthurlie Primary School, Hillview School, St. John’s Roman Catholic Primary School and St. Mark’s Roman Catholic Primary School. The town has two secondary schools: St. Luke’s High School and Barrhead High.
