About this property
Idyllic 3 bedroom cottage in the Village of Wanlockhead
No. 3 Dialknowe Holiday Cottage, at first glance is an unassuming holiday cottage sleeping up to 6 people over 3 bedrooms. It's welcoming and comfortable but what really makes it stand out is the location in the heart of Wanlockhead, Scotland's Highest village, which is only 6 miles from the M74 and only 1 hour from Glasgow, Edinburgh and Carlisle. Fantastic views, breath-taking walks which will leave you deeply envious of the locals. Wanlockhead is also part of the SWC 300.
Inside the cottage there is a comfortable and cosy space which provides the ideal home away from home.
A living room with Smart TV is on the ground floor.
Within the kitchen, also on the ground floor, there is all you would need to prepare meals after a day’s exploring and enjoying your surroundings.
There are 3 bedrooms in the cottage. Two on the ground floor which sleeps two in each double room, whilst the bedroom on the upper floor has a double bed.
The bathroom with the over bath shower is downstairs. This cottage is ideally suited more towards families.
