    We loved the location. Wanlockhead is beautiful with walks right on the doorstep, sheep everywhere, and a friendly pub across the lane. The cottage was spacious and very clean. More than enough room for a family of 4 with a dog!

Property information

1/2 Dialknowe Holiday Cottage, sleeps up to 6 people over 3 bedrooms, 1 King size, 1 double and a twin room. We also have an indoor heated leisure pool recently opened in the village and is available for exclusive use hire for up to 8 people. Details can found at Lowther Leisure Pool Wanlockhead We do accept a maximum of 2 pet by prior arrangement. There is also a charge of 15 pound per pet payable before arrival. The security deposit has to be arranged with owner which is a pre-authorisation. It's welcoming and comfortable but what really makes it stand out is the location in the heart of Wanlockhead, the highest village in Scotland which is only 6 miles from the M74 and only 1 hour from Glasgow, Edinburgh and Carlisle. Wanlockhead is a pretty sleepy village, although really central. The cottage is within walking distance of the Wanlockhead Inn and The Museum of Lead Mining but still incredibly peaceful with amazing views of the hills throughout the day and beautiful clear skies at night. The Southern Uplands Way passes through the village and other footpaths lead to the nearby village of Leadhills which has a well stocked shop and the Hopetoun Arms Hotel which offers a well varied menu. Please be aware this is a converted miners cottage and some of the bedrooms are in the attic space where there are no doors.

Neighbourhood information
