Charming Stone Parlour Cottage set in an area of outstanding beauty.

The cottage lies in a secluded valley, surrounded by open countryside with stunning panoramic views, it has been redesigned and offers excellent accommodation from which to explore the surrounding areas.
The property was created from the conversion of a traditional farm steading, Parlour Cottage was the old milking parlour in a former life.
Wonderful walking and cycling are available direct from the door, and the Southern Upland Way, Scotland's Coast to Coast long distance walk, is close by.
It is an ideal base for hill walking, wildlife and bird watching, sightseeing, or fishing. Or try your hand at gold panning.
Nearby Biggar has a number of specialist shops, pubs, eateries, a Victorian style puppet theatre, museums, and its famous Hogmanay bonfire and street party.
Within easy reach of the cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow both with world class museums, restaurants, and shops. Edinburgh with its famous castle, festival and fringe. (runs throughout the month of August). Glasgow, an exciting, vibrant city – home to the Scottish Ballet and Scottish Opera.

Perfect base
This property was 15 mins drive for the Bombproof Boxer Summer Camp which we attended for 4 days for 2 x 2hrs training sessions with the dogs and also evening lectures. Location was just right for to and from Bowmuir Farm. Nice to have the use of a fenced paddock/orchard for the dogs to have a run around.

Perfect!
So beautiful and comfortable, set in rolling green hills. The cottage is a perfect home base for exploring southern Scotland. The cottage itself is comfortable and well appointed with everything we could have needed. Elaine was so friendly and very quick to answer with any questions we had. The welcome book had directions and contact info for many local interests. We hope to be able to stay again someday.

A nice cottage with beautiful views
Elaine was really helpful and showed me round and how to adjust the heating etc. The cottage is very comfortable and the views from the sitting room are stunning. The kitchen looks out over a courtyard which is also really beautiful. Plenty of space to park outside and Elaine showed us where the girls could play outside in the orchard. We had a lovely time, thank you.
