The village of Carnwath nestles in the Clyde Valley. Notable in the village is the Wee Bush Inn dating from the 1750s, the Market Cross, and St Mary's Aisle which is the only part of the Collegiate Church on the current Parish Church and dates back to 1386. Further afield is the garden of Little Sparta with its amazing sculptures.

Plenty of room, warm & cosy. Very close to the village pub without any noise impact. Parking is on the road and is ample and safe.

The cottage was spotless and everything we needed was there. The bed was so comfy and the pillows are excellent quality. We had nothing negative to say about our stay. Even the weather was kind It was decorated for Christmas, and pressies for us and Eddie our dog. We loved our stay, and the surrounding area is perfect for dog walks.
