I have seen pictures of the Mackintosh house many times and watched many Documentaries and YouTube’s, and yet nothing prepared me for the surprise and delights from physically visiting the house today. What a special treasure!!! To experience their house, walking through their dark wood-panelled entry, standing in their “moody” dining room, and being “washed” in light in their living room is almost a spiritual experience. The magic of architecture is to experience its spaces. Photographs are too flat to tell the full story. I thought I knew a lot about the Mackintoshes before I came to Glasgow for this visit. I even had breakfast at the Willow Tea Room ( designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh) this morning just to get myself ready for the House visit. However, the house still presented surprises and insights about the talents and genius of Charles and Margaret Mackintosh. If you like art and architecture, you will not be disappointed.

I preferred this over House for An Art Lover. It was a short compact visit, but I enjoyed the layout and the pieces on view. The people stationed on the floors knew their stuff at the time of my visit. It's located in the Uni area and good to visit with several other museums in the area. Also, there is a main road nearby, which is quite vibrant with restaurants and shops. You could make it a day in this area.

We've been Mackintosh fans for decades, even extending to buying some reproduction chairs for our home. Finding ourselves in Glasgow for a conference, this seemed an obvious destination for a visit. Both of us were tremendously impressed by this exhibit (and by the story behind its reconstruction). Here we have an entire house reproduced exactly as the Mackintosh's would have lived in it. It's a chance to see how their aesthetic works together at scale, and it didn't disappoint. So very different to seeing an isolated chair or table (as in the nearby Kelvingrove museum). Highly recommended.

I loved The Mackintosh house! It was beautifully restored and really charming. The staff very enthusiastic and informed. Well worth the £10 entry fee. Sit and watch the video which is about 10mins before going into the actual house. It brings the whole project to life.

For any fan of Macintosh and his wife, Margaret Macdonald, a visit to their house museum is a 'must do'. Set in a 'brutalist' enclosure, which mimics aspects of the original end of terrace house, the original layout, decoration and furnishings have been reproduced faithfully. The attendant I met was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. To experience their living arrangements, and witness the beautiful designs , was a privilege.
