Wondered about this place for years and eventually decided to take 8yr and 10yr grandsons. We all thoroughly enjoyed the visit, great cafe, interesting displays and the bus tour was great. Lots of very interesting info and the interaction from the driver (Stewart) was excellent, really great with the kids asking questions, very friendly and helped make the visit a memorable one.

We have visited the wind farm many times over the years, but for the first time got the bus tour. Stewart was an excellent tour guide with lots of information and was extremely kind interacting with our grandson. He had a ball and wants to go again. The cafe is very nice and I was even able to have a gluten free scone. Definitely recommend the tour.

We visited Whitelee Windfarm in April 2023. Stewart was our tour guide. We were a family (grandad, mum, dad and 2 children). All of us LOVED our visit. Stewart made the visit interesting, informative and a lot of fun. He engaged with all members of the family and patiently answered all our questions. We learned a lot, laughed a lot and had a great time. Thoroughly recommended

The information in the centre is pretty good, and it's free parking for when you want to walk around the wind turbines.
It seemed unusually clear as we walked around today and we could see North to Ben Lomond, and West to Arran & Ailsa Craig. Very pretty!
There are trails of varying length, from a mile or so up to 15. Obviously there are lots of wind turbines here and it's interesting to stand directly under the blades and listen to them as you see them go round overhead.

Visited today with my two sons and took the tour bus around part of the windfarm. We all thoroughly enjoyed it due to how informative Stuart the bus driver/tour guide was who also couldn't be more helpful if he tried. Staff in visitor centre also friendly.

Visited Whitelee Windfarm Visitor Centre today with grandchildren.
They enjoyed the interactive items in the exhibition area, although two were not working. One unit required an engineer to reboot the software, which took about 20 minutes and even then, was clunky in the way it operated, i.e. Pressed buttons and no response.
We then took a map and headed out for the short walk. All walks down to the main turbine area involve walking firstly on a very rough roadway. Been a long time since it was last levelled and you have to walk the entire area on the bottoming rocks which protrude along the entire distance. Certainly not child friendly for very young children and probably extremely difficult if not impossible for anyone in a wheelchair or with a childs buggy. Really needs at least a tarmac pathway from the start down to the first turbine. The worst part though was the climb back up again. Not easy due to this bad surface and the incline. I doubt that anyone in a wheelchair could make it back up.
Got back just after 4.30 and headed to the cafe where we told that it had closed at 4.30
How to welcome tourists – a visitor centre that closes its cafe at 4.30 !! exactly at the time when a lot of people who have done either of the walks would be returning.
We had a seat at one of the rickety picnic style tables on the viewing platform. The initial one we chose, had uncleared dishes piled on it, and the one we did sit at had a broken seat panel. None of them had seen a coat of paint for some considerable time. The floor of the viewing platform was disgusting. Covered in cigarette ends, crisps and other food remnants. Doesn’t look like the centre own a brush.
The interactive area is ok, the site of all these wind turbines is amazing, the cafe needs to rethink its opening times and cleaning of the public areas needs serious attention. .. and as we left at 5.15, the cafe had locked up and the uncollected dishes remained where the were.
Won’t be rushing back.

We were staying in Glasgow and it took around 25 mins to get to Whitelee, we took 3 kids (2,5,8) and walked from the visitor centre to a couple of turbines and back. It was interesting and was really quiet with great views. There are some interactive learning exhibitions in the visitor center and a small cafe. Good for a morning out to get some fresh air with the kids.

Really not sure what to expect- just going a trip out with friends. We had a quick walk-would love to do more as there were plenty of paths to take and the place was full of people walking dogs and folk on bikes.
The cafe was very good-soup lovely and excellent friendly service. Lovely views. Unfortunately the exhibition was closed..so we may return in the future.

The food is good and the pricing is fair, but the service is glacial. With four people in front of me, and none of their orders were complicated, it took 20 minutes to get served. There were two staff on the counter. The girl is very pleasant but hopelessly inefficient. The bloke just seemed to pick up trays and bump into things and really seemed to have no purpose. They really do need to get someone in to show them how to run a cafe that doesn’t involve their customers dying of old age in the queue!

Can you walk around the windfarm in the evening? (after the visitor centre closes?)
Rédigé le 10 août 2017
Yes, it's just the centre that closes.i can't remember the time the farm itself closes but I'm pretty sure it is quite a bit later.

They are allowed on the decking outside but unfortunately, are not allowed in the cafe due to health and safety reasons.
