Strike out across the Scottish countryside with your faithful friend at your heel when you stay at this Lanarkshire cottage. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom, single-storey retreat is perfect for a small family or two couples eager to bring a canine companion. Situated 4.5 miles from Lanark, the property, which nestles on a working sheep farm, is also 4 miles from Carluke and 25.5 miles from Glasgow. It sits within an enclosed garden for your delighted dog to explore at his leisure.
Pull yourselves away from the views of the Pentland Hills and enter via the vestibule. Dry damp paws and hang outdoor clothing before following your puppy pal inside. The colourful lounge, with its rural views, sits at the heart of this hideaway and is where you can rest tired paws and aching feet as you you stream your favourite show on the Smart TV. When puppy eyes start pleading for dinner, take him through to the kitchen/diner to dish up his dinner and prepare your own delicious meal. There is also a farmhouse table in here to dine at. Open the door to the garden to bring in a cool breeze on summer days. Pop damp dog towels into the washing machine in here to rinse them through. When night falls, settle your pet then head through to one of the two king-size bedrooms. Have a hot shower in the family shower room in the morning before calling your chum for his first walk of the day. Enjoy breakfast outside on fine mornings as you take in the views.
Venture 6.5 miles together to see the Beautiful Falls of Clyde, where pups can walk and even swim. Take your pal to Archie’s Dog Acres, 4 miles away, where he can bound about the park to his heart’s content.
