Helix Park

Any day is a nice day to see kelpies or go at night and see them lit up

The magnificent Kelpies, between Falkirk and Grangemouth. Built on brownfield land, beside the Forth & Clyde canal. Thirty metres (100 ft) tall, these magnificent sculptures are based on the ancient mythical Kelpies/water horse. Very popular spot with locals and tourists, it’s in the Helix park - well worth a trip. Halfway between Edinburgh and Glasgow, I think they’re my favourite spot in my home town. #Lifeatexpediagroup

Staff were super helpful, mailed back a charger that I left at the accommodation! Staff were super helpful by text when I had questions about check in. Only downside was that room was incredibly small and the bathroom in particular was a struggle to use with the limited space.
