it is worth a stop off to look around this interesting centre with information about the dramatic scenery & history of this famous site in Glencoe. You can also find out more about the reconstruction of a traditional 17th-century turf and creel house and take a short walk to see it. There are also guided tours avaiable to book.https://www.nts.org.uk/visit/places/glencoe/highlights/visitor-centreThe Highland Coo Café / restaurant serves good, wholesome food.

We drove through the Three Sisters and stopped at the visitors center for lunch and a family friendly hike. It was fantastic, there were picnic tables outside with the most beautiful view of the mountains! A bit chilly for us Floridians but so worth it! A memory to cherish. There was a fantastic cafe inside the visitors center, but we had packed our own lunch prior so we didn’t get to try it, though we were quite tempted. The hike was also great for us, as we had my parents who are over 65 and our 3 year old daughter. Exactly what we wanted to keep everyone safe but take in the beauty surrounding us. The visitors center itself is worth the stop with an informative video, clean bathrooms and education facilities! So glad we went for it! Totally wonderful!

Such an incredible scenery. I was mesmerized by the beauty of glencoe. There is a turf house which is a traditional house of glencoe. We dont need to pay, but we can donate to preserve this place.

A really interesting visitor centre with lots of information - and free entry too! The car park costs £4 or free if you are a member of the National Trust Scotland or Naional Trust. There is a cinema with a fascinating video about the construction of the turf and creel house which you can visit. Views on a good day would be amazing - it was rainy and misty today though! There is a big tearoom with a wide choice of food. We were greeted very enthusiastically by Euan in the tearoom and made to feel very welcome.

This is a very well maintained and setup visitors centre, with a video introduction to the area, cafe, beautiful shop (even by National Trust standards), and a small 3D mal of the area with volunteers to also provide helpful walking advice. Out the back there is also a beautiful (accessible) view with a few signs, and if looking for a fairly flat or easy walk, there is a one mile loop that starts from the back of the visitor centre.Facilities: The toilets are clean, and though the car park costs £4 it is free if you have National Trust.

This is a great place to stop by on your journey through Glencoe, a nice gift shop with reasonable pricing and lots of information.The café sells good coffee, I didn't try the food but it did look pretty good!Parking fee goes towards maintaining Glencoe.
