Two miles west of Biggar, just off the A72, this 12-room country hotel is undergoing a facelift and expansion under new owners. Set on the Clyde, it's a striking chateau-style building that offers artistic, opulent decor. Rooms are very sizeable, with loads of character. It books out at weekends for weddings. There's a good on-site restaurant.
For a special experience, book out the honeymoon suite, an amazing space that occupies its own tower, with spiral stairs leading up to a private champagne loft.
