About this property
Entire place
Idyllic 3 bedroom cottage in the Village of Wanlockhead
Wanlockhead is a captivating mix of hills and charming whitewashed cottages like Dialknowe. It's elevation 1531ft makes it Scotland highest village. The hills aren't only beautiful to look at, they hide lead, gold and other precious stones and minerals which have been mined since Roman times. When walking through the village it's hard to believe the the village was once a very industrial area with visible remnants such as the Beam Engine. The Museum of Lead Mining is a main attraction and you are able to pan for gold and hopefully find your fortune.
The Southern Uplands Way passes through the village and other footpaths lead to the nearby village of Leahills which has a well stocked shop and the Hopetoun Arms Hotel which offers a well varied menu. Other places to explore include Biggar and Moffat which is about half an hours drive from Wanlockhead. Other local attractions include the Leadhills and Wanlockhead Railway and Drumlanrig Castle. With good road links Glasgow, Edinburgh and Carlisle are only around an hour away.
Dialknowe Holiday Cottage is a great place to stay if your looking for a summer break away for hillwalking, biking or the magical winter break with snow covered hills.
