About this property
3 Bedroom Miners Cottage - Wanlockhead D & G
Quirky Two-into-One Cottage in Scotland's Highest Village – Sleeps 6
No.1/2 Dialknowe may have a strange address, but it all becomes clear when you spot the second staircase: this was once two cottages. It's a little bigger than it looks, with a few quirky touches that can't help but make you smile. It sits in Wanlockhead, 1,531ft up in the Lowther Hills of Dumfries & Galloway, about an hour from Glasgow and Edinburgh and just 6 miles from the M74.
DOWNSTAIRS • Living room at the front with Freeview Smart TV (log in to your own Netflix etc.) • Kitchen with electric cooker, microwave, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer and fold-away table • King-size bedroom • Modern bathroom with shower over the bath
UPSTAIRS (attic bedrooms, up two separate staircases) • Double bedroom • Twin bedroom
INCLUDED • Oil central heating and electricity • Bed linen and towels • Superfast fibre broadband • Travel cot on request • Private parking for 2 cars
PETS Up to 2 pets welcome, £20 per pet.
ON YOUR DOORSTEP The Southern Upland Way runs through the village. Visit the Museum of Lead Mining, go down Scotland's only underground mine open to visitors or try gold panning. The Wanlockhead Inn is a short stroll away for home-cooked food by the log fire. Admittedly Wanlockhead isn't a nightlife hotspot – that's the whole appeal. Hire Lowther Leisure Pool for a private swim, or walk to Leadhills for the village shop, the Hopetoun Arms and Scotland's highest 18-hole golf course.

A lovely, well equipped.and clean cottage.in Scotlands highest village. Had everythibg our family needed for our stay. Comfy beds meant a great nights sleep. A few walks to do around the village and only a short stroll to the village pub.
This is a fantastic cottage in an adorable village. It has rolling hills, a burn and lots of sheep! The cottage itself was quite large and was fit for our family of 6, including adult children and their spouses. It was clean, decorated well and rather comfortable. There are amenities within walking distance such as a pub, museum, etc. We wished we had stayed longer and we'll definitely return!
Property was spotless, beds comfortable, Wi-Fi very good, kitchen well equipped, though none of the odds and end like salt and pepper often found in a self catering place so take absolutely everything you need with you.
Perfect wee village- pub excellent with a limited choice of pretty good pub grub and less than a 100yard stagger away!
Lovely walks on the doorstep and beautiful scenery, and sheep.
