Property code: 74331

Stylish micro lodge perfect for a romantic getaway with private hot tub and splendid views to enjoy, close to all local amenities and a wealth of attractions, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

This super-stylish micro lodge offers a luxurious stay in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty near the historic town of Biggar. With a BBQ and a hot tub from where you can lie back and take in the superb views, this is the perfect romantic retreat.

Inside, the décor is immaculate and minimal, with contemporary soft greys and creams and natural wood finishes, creating a tasteful, relaxing environment. The underfloor heating ensures cosy nights and toasty toes in the morning.

Entering the lodge from the raised deck area, you come straight into the open-plan living area, with a large corner sofa and a bijou table for two where you can enjoy a romantic dinner before relaxing on the sofa in front of the TV. Further back into the lodge is the neat, well-equipped kitchen, opposite the cosy double bed which is partially screened off from the lounge area. In the morning, enjoy a hot shower in the light and airy bathroom at the far end of the lodge, before wandering out onto the deck with a cup of steaming coffee to contemplate the day ahead.

Outside, the stylish decked area is beautifully designed with twin chairs, a picnic table, a BBQ and a hot tub, neatly enclosed in one corner. Sit outside with a drink in the sunshine or cook up a tasty meal on the BBQ before enjoying a relaxing soak in the hot tub after a day out in the fresh air. There’s plenty of opportunities to spot local wildlife from here, including deer, squirrels, barn owls and hares.

There is an abundance of stunning walks and cycle routes directly from the lodge, but slightly further afield is Tinto Hill (6.5 miles), the highest point in central Scotland. Once at the top, on a clear day you can see as far as the Lake District and Northern Ireland. Enjoy a rewarding cup of tea in the Tinto tearoom on the way down.

Famous for its Victorian Puppet Theatre, the pretty market town of Biggar (2 miles) is a delightful place. Enjoy a stroll along the high street with its historic buildings before relaxing over lunch in one of the many eateries.

For a romantic day out, pack a picnic and head to the spectacular Dawyck Botanic Garden (10 miles), part of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh. Enjoy the stunning tree collection and take a leisurely wander along the Burnside Trail.
