This is a property we highly recommend viewing, situated in a quiet part of the village, just a short walk to the amenities and outdoor walks along the river and the Douglas Estate.

There are many local walks around the village, including a circular walk into the estate grounds surrounding the old castle site (Douglas Castle), of which only a single tower remains.

There are many interesting walks in the area, including the Hidden Side of the Falls of Clyde, near Lanark (about 10 miles), with gorge cliffs and the ruins of Corra Castle.
