We stayed for one night in early October 20. Carpark was quite busy initially with locals parking to see the kelpies at night but got quieter after 10pm and we had a peaceful nights sleep. It was free when we stayed and toilets closed in the evening.

Perfect location and lever car park but over run with big racers playing loud music, very noisy till the very early hours. It’s a real pity as it’s a perfect stop over other wise.

No one collecting money - maybe free for January like the tours? Great little place to spend the night next to an amazing sculpture. Obviously some road noise from the motorway and a few boy racers in the evening but nothing to keep you up.

Parken kostet 5£ pro Nacht. Ein freundlicher Herr sammelt das Geld abends ein und schreibt eine Quittung für die Frontscheibe. Zu der Skulptur sind es zu Fuß ca. 15 min.

Gratuito durante el día, por la noche 5 L, debes comprar el ticket bajo los kelpies. Hay a pocos metros un gran parque de juegos. Puedes ir en bicicleta recorriendo el canal a la noria de Falkirk que está a 8 km.

Conforme aux différents commentaires lus. Juste pour signaler que ce parking ne se trouve pas au pied des Kelpies, mais bien avant (1/2 mile). On ne voit pas du tout les Kelpies du parking. Pour information, on a tenté de se parquer au parking plus proche d'où on voit les Kelpies, mais les gardes nous on dit que ce n'était pas autorisé, dommage...

This is a very simple car park but perfect to stay for one night. It can get a little noisy with youngsters but other than that everything is fine. A guard comes around in the evening to collect £5 for the night. Since there is no amenities nor anything else and this is only a very basic car park 4 stars are the maximum one should give.

Parking grand avec beaucoup de places mais pas mal de bruit jusqu'à 23h avec les voitures qui viennent se poser en laissant le moteur tourné ou musique. Bruit de route assez constant la nuit

Stayed here for one night to visit the Kelpies. No sign of any restriction on overnight stays. A few youngsters in cars hang around early evening but were no trouble and it was quiet overnight. Toilets at the visitor centre only open during centre opening hours 9:30 to 18:00 in March.

Nice spot for an overnight, especially if you want to photograph the Kelpies at night. There is some road noise from the motorway but it's not too intrusive.

Check that there is no event on. If there is then this site is closed for parking overnight. We used a local Industrial Estate instead. We were there Remembrance Weekend but there is also some spectacular planned.

Spent a Friday night there, lots of folk parking cars in the evening and in the morning lots of dog walkers arriving, however it was a quite night and about 8 other motorhomes around us

Good overnight stop to see the Kelpies lit up. Road traffic quietens down adter 23.00 hours. Friendly car parking attendant. Can be noisy with youths using bikes.

Sitio tranquilo por la noche. Posibilidad de muchos paseos y un parque de niños a cinco minutos

Lots of young kids in cars, back and forth, round and round waisting fuel, worth looking at other options. .

Great little spot to stop the night , car park attendants were so helpful.! Arrived later on and went to see the kelpies at night light up. Well worth a stop. Will definitely use it again
