A luxury motorhome and RV park opened at a country club estate where tourists can stop on their travels.
Ingliston Estate and Country Club, in Bishopton, has unveiled the park complete with 30 hard-standing pitches, water and electricity, and full access to local bars, restaurants, live entertainment and equestrian facilities.
The Renfrewshire estate is popular with weddings, corporate events and general visitors and it is hoped the park will boost both the estate and the local community with staycation tourists.

Managing Director Paul Fraser said: “Ingliston’s location is at the heart of its charm, not just its views, and we hope the new Motorhome and RV Park will open up a new leisure market, which has exploded since the pandemic, that will be of benefit not just to us but the local community.
“As well as an investment in our Estate we’re also passionate about generating investment for the local area, including jobs and the wider economic benefits.
“We believe staycations are here to stay and our existing facilities and entertainment, as well as our accessibility to both Glasgow and Loch Lomond, provide all the attributes needed for a terrific holiday.
"The Park is now open and we are really looking forward to extending a warm welcome to visitors.”
Called The Paddocks, the park is part of a £500,000 investment and will create around 10 jobs.

Open 365 days a year, the site has a number of facilities including showers, toilets, washing and laundry services as well as full hook-up supplies.
Gary Clark, the operations director who project managed The Paddocks, said: “Creating The Paddocks opens up incredible opportunities to offer new customers a completely new experience including the ability to stop off and enjoy Renfrewshire while touring further afield.
“People are also becoming more conscious of reducing their air miles and a staycation at The Paddocks offers the opportunity to enjoy an eco-friendly holiday in a way that still offers luxury and choice in your surroundings and facilities.”
