Large luxury self catering near Edinburgh and Glasgow - sleeps 10

 

Stunning, modern church conversion in rural Lanarkshire

 

 

Luxurious, unusual and perfectly placed between Edinburgh and Glasgow yet in a beautiful rural position, this smart, modern church conversion is a perfect self catering venue for a group of friends or family to have a fantastic holiday combining the peace and quiet of the countryside and all the wonderful urban treats that Edinburgh and Glasgow have to offer.

Stunning features such as the bespoke metalwork on the helical staircase, tall, arched windows, rooflights which open at the touch of a button and the most beautiful stained glass which was designed and made by the owners, make this modern church conversion special. There is plenty of space for a group of ten to chill out in the large open plan living area, plus the mezzanine snooker area and snug provide a variety of spaces to spread into. Underfloor heating keeps the whole house cosy and bright, minimalist decor gives a smart, modern feel.

For meals in, the kitchen has been well set out and equipped to cater for a larger group, with double range oven, plenty of fridge and freezer space and all the right labour saving gadgets including, importantly, a dishwasher. Because of the open plan layout, those on chef duty are not isolated from the rest of the party whilst being creative in the kitchen. Step through to the patio for al fresco meals with a view!

Bedrooms are cosy and luxurious; I especially love the upstairs master bedroom with its huge circular window looking out over the hills - what a view to wake up to! Very helpfully for a large group, there is plenty of flexibility so far as sleeping arrangements go: three bedrooms may be set up as double or twin; one of the downstairs bedrooms has an ensuite wetroom and is set up for disabled use and - what a treat - there's a sauna and steamroom too!

So here we are in the middle of the beautiful Lanarkshire countryside, in a unique, luxury self catering house with everything we could possibly need for a great holiday right on our doorstep - there are walks and cycle routes to explore close by and a pleasant, easy forty minute drive will take us to Edinburgh in one direction or Glasgow in the other. If you don't fancy parking in the city, nearby train stations have regular services to both cities.

Of course if you come in August you'll find theatre going on all over the city of Edinburgh, both on the street and in hundreds of temporary and permanent venues.

Follow in the footsteps of William 'Braveheart' Wallace and visit Lanark, where there are plenty of bars and tea rooms along with small shops, a museum and a farmers' market. No visit to this area would be complete without a visit to the World Heritage Village of New Lanark.
