Top 5 Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in Coatbridge, Scotland
Coatbridge (Scots: Cotbrig or Coatbrig, Scottish Gaelic: Drochaid a' Chòta) is a town in North Lanarkshire, Scotland, about 8.5 miles (13.7 km) east of Glasgow city centre, set in the central Lowlands. The town, with neighbouring Airdrie, is part of the Greater Glasgow urban area. While the earliest known settlement of the area dates back to the Stone Age era, the founding of the town can be traced to the 12th century, when a Royal Charter was granted to the monks of Newbattle Abbey by King Malcolm IV. Coatbridge, along with its neighbour Airdrie, forms the area known as the Monklands.

We used to take our own children to summerlee when they were younger and now we take our 3 grandchildren who love it just as much. There are plenty of things that the kids can get involved with and get their hands on and they love the tram to the old cottages and mine The cottages are all done up for various rooms through history which is really interesting and the children love everything about them. This museum is well worth the trip

Christie is an absolute asset to this company and helped us out a ton on our last visit, from helping us at the main desk to setting the lane up and having a chat and offering our kids a toy, from a tin, will definitely be back if only more people where like her.

We visited as a family with two children - aged 2 and 6. Both children (plus the adults!) had a great time. I saw lots of reviews that called this place dirty - it absolutely wasn't when we were there, though perhaps a bit in need of refurbishment in places. I'm leaving this review here mainly to give clarity on the age restrictions for the flumes, as I didn't think it was clear from the website before we visited. For the Tornado, which is 2-4 people on a float, it is a straight minimum of 1.2m. Great ride, my 6 year old and I loved it. I might have screamed first time round :) The two more traditional flumes are Lightning and Thunder. To go on these alone, kids need to be 8 years old, 1.2m or over, and a competent swimmer. However, if they are over 4, they can go on one of the flumes (Lightning) with an adult. Both are fun and similar, and I can't see an obvious reason they have different riding requirements. They land next to each other in a 1m deep pool. There's a few other in-pool slides more suitable for the little ones, and the wave machine is good fun. All staff were nice and helpful, including when my key didn't work. You pay a deposit on the locker keys and we forgot to get one of the two deposits back, so remember that. My son wants to go again next weekend and for his birthday - praise indeed.
