Description
Forth 1 mile.
Mousebank, a lovely, detached holiday home on a quiet road opening to the countryside surrounding the village of Forth, near Lanark in central Scotland.
Fully refurbished and offering quality accommodation, this cottage is a great place for couples or families to use as a base while exploring this part of the country.
All ground floor, with three steps up to the front door and steps down from the metal balcony in the rear garden, this holiday home offers flexible accommodation for up to four people.
There is a super king-size double bedroom and a second room that is a twin, (no zip/link).
The kitchen has a dining table while the spacious living/dining room also hosts a dining area as well as views across the garden to the trees as the ground slopes down to the Mousewater Burn.
The sliding doors open onto a metal balcony which leads down to a garden and patio area.
Walk or cycle from your front door and explore the former Wilsontown Ironworks site, now converted into attractive woodlands with a variety of trails and guided walks to the settlement where many workers used to live and work the mines.
There are other cycle trails in nearby Fauldhouse and the famous Glentress cycle trails are less than an hour away.
Visit the World Heritage Site of the former 18th-century cotton mill at New Lanark and discover why Robert Owen is renowned as a social reformer for developing social and welfare programs and transforming the lives of the workers living in the planned village alongside the mill.
Why not spend a day in Glasgow or Edinburgh or tour the beautiful Borders only a short car journey away through stunning scenery?
A lovely holiday home with many attractions within easy reach, whatever the season.

What guests are saying
An absolutely beautiful property that has been fully renovated and is immaculate, with everything you could ever need!
It is in a lovely quiet village and situated perfectly for close travel into Lanark, Edinburgh, Glasgow etc. The only issue we had was with the ‘bond’ of £250, which I thought was taken within my original booking payment with Sykes, but it wasn’t, and is to be paid separately by bank transfer to the owners - this isn’t just to cover any damage to the property, but for cleanliness too - there’s a full list of instructions in the property information book, which are not explained in the description or before booking. E.G Dogs not allowed in any of the bedrooms, and any hairs to be fully vacuumed, and the property to be fully deep cleaned before departure. We always leave a property as we found it, so it wasn’t a problem to us - but it did make us very conscious of everything, and a little on edge just in case we accidentally missed something!
We had a very comfortable stay and the fixtures and fittings are excellent.
The owner James is nearby to help if needed, and he can advise on good venues and locations in the area.
Lovely bungalow in a quiet road.
Very well equipped and spotlessly clean. Beds very comfortable.
