About this property

Nestled in the town of Biggar, 6 Kirkstyle is a lovely base for a family or group of friends looking to explore wonderful South Lanarkshire and the Scottish Borders. The house has recently been renovated to a high standard without losing its period character. Enter through the front lobby into a delightful open-plan living space, featuring a well-equipped kitchen that has all the appliances you need to rustle up a delicious meal, which can be enjoyed at the ample dining table, before settling into the corner sofa beside the woodburning stove and Smart TV. Upstairs you have two bedrooms: a spacious king-size and a double, each with views across the local town and plenty of storage in drawers and on hooks. There is one bathroom with a large basin, WC and an elegant shower with high-quality fixtures and fittings. When the sun shines (it really does sometimes!) enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of your favourite drink in the rear courtyard. The local town of Biggar is a lovely location for your escape to the Scottish Borders, offering a great selection of pubs, tasty eateries and cafes, as well as a supermarket and convenience stores for your essentials. It has many excellent shops, boasting a home-made ice-cream shop, a well-stocked independent bookshop and a stylish clothes shop. Young ones can enjoy the splendid play-area in the nearby Biggar Burnbraes Park, whilst both gentle and more invigorating walks can be found starting from the property. For the energetic, don't miss a climb up Tinto Hill 6 miles away. Further afield, you will find walks at Clyde Valley Woodlands, Dawyck Botanic Gardens, and Cartland Craigs. For an interesting day out, visit New Lanark. Or for more amenities and attractions head over to the bustling city of Edinburgh where there are many amazing historic sites including Edinburgh Castle, Craigmillar Castle, the Palace of Holyroodhouse and a fantastic museum where you can learn more about the local history and heritage. Or travel to Glasgow where you can visit the world-renowned Burrell Collection and Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. Explore Scotland with a stay at 6 Kirkstyle.

The town of Biggar on the edge of Scotland’s Southern Uplands is believed to have been inhabited since prehistoric times, and the present A702 is on the line of the former Roman road, linking the fort at Musselburgh with the Clyde Valley. The Normans followed in the 12th century and Biggar Burn was finally bridged, providing the first permanent crossing. The town today, with the market place at its centre, retains the linear layout showing the historical importance of the A702. It has many shops, cafes and bars and is particularly renowned for its collection of museums reflecting the history of notable individuals from the area. Visit the Moat Park Heritage Centre in a disused church for a flavour of Biggar’s history. With both the Southern Upland hills, the Borders town of Peebles and cities of Glasgow and Edinburgh all within easy reach, Biggar has something for everyone.
