Property code: 91247

A single-storey cabin with an open-plan lounge/kitchen at its centre, this is a romantic bolthole for dog-owning couples seeking adventure in the Southern Uplands. Five-and-a-half miles from Biggar, the cabin also features a king-size bedroom, an enclosed garden and an exercise field.

Overlooking open fields and surrounded by other similar properties, the cabin’s authentic wooden interior is minimalist and functional. Cushioned, non-slip floors help your four-footed guests move around easily, with enough room for everyone. The open-plan lounge/kitchen is a compact space perfect for lazy mornings and evening snuggles, while a light and spacious double bedroom is only a few paw prints away. You will feel rejuvenated after a warming spray in the wetroom, that is if you’re not relaxed with a drink in the enclosed outside area after a long soak in the private hot tub. The dogs will get the chance to make friends with other animals on the farm, take training classes or nose for scraps around the indoor BBQ.

The abundance of paths and trails crisscrossing the hills, woodlands and rivers of the Clyde Valley are the perfect excuse to explore the local area on foot with the dogs. Biggar and Lanark (both within 10 miles) are just two of a host of bustling market towns found across South Lanarkshire offering a warm Scottish welcome to visitors on two or four paws. If you need to wear the dogs out, the majestic surroundings of Pentland Hills Regional Park (18 miles) are a feast for the senses, with plenty of dog-friendly walks right across the site.

The cottage was lovely. It was warm and cosy. It was outstandingly clean and had all the equipment you needed. Maybe some oven gloves would have been useful.

We had a brilliant stay. Cabin was cosy and comfortable, with everything we needed. Loved how dog friendly it was, knowing our dog was secure within the cabin and garden when we were in the hot tub was much appreciated. So close to nice walks and Biggar too. We will be back!

The Chicken Coop was ideal for the 2 of us & the dog over the new year, no fireworks to upset the dog. The hot tub was fantastic in the cold and rain. A very cosy little cabin and the walks in the woods and field were great

The most amazing location and the loveliest people, there is plenty to do around and a lovely touch with the guest book allowing people to add recommendations if things to do.

What a stay! Anyone that wants peace, relaxation and calm - this is the place. We will be back! Brilliantly equipped cabin, with the private hot tub on tap whenever you wanted it. Just superb. Theres loads of walking direct from the cabin - from forest walks, to walking round the animal paddocks and in the woods by the cabins. Its a brilliant base Read morefor exploring - going in all directions! We enjoyed Drumlanrig Castle and the Falls of Clyde. Two happy humans and two tired hounds! Hide

Booked the Chicken Coop for our anniversary and took our dog with us for 3 nights. Beautiful setting, perfect to get away from everything and very relaxing. Had everything you need to self-cater and hot tub made it extra special. Good value for money, great communication from owners and would certainly visit again in the future.
