  • Family-friendly Lanarkshire glamping five minutes’ drive from Carnwath
  • New Lanark 20 minutes’ drive and Clyde Valley Family Park 25 minutes
  • Smallholding with a communal barbecue, firepit and outdoor eating area
What’s it to be – Edinburgh or Glasgow? Book a stay at North Lodge Glamping, five minutes’ drive from Carnwath in Lanarkshire, and you’ll have no such quandaries, as the site is pretty much mid-distance between Scotland’s two biggest cities. Visit one or visit them both – you’re guaranteed scenic drives in the Pentland Hills to Edinburgh, and through pretty Lanarkshire countryside to Glasgow. On site, all is calm and peaceful, and thoughts of city days out may well fade from your mind as you relax in woodland surroundings on a smallholding with chickens, sheep and friendly pet cats. In the morning, you may be woken up by the roosters – a sign that it's time to go and get some fresh hens' eggs for breakfast (usually available to buy daily). A communal barbecue, firepit and outdoor eating area make it a breeze for you to eat al fresco, but if you’re not a fan of cooking outdoors, you can head to pubs and restaurants in Lanark and Biggar (both 15 minutes’ drive). Local takeaways will also deliver straight to your tent. You can easily keep everyone occupied without straying too far… kids have a spacious play park to run around in, and there are numerous quiet walking and cycling routes accessed directly from the site. You can also relax away any woes in the hot tub – wait for a clear night and watch a myriad of stars dancing above as you soak.

Local attractions

Major days out to Edinburgh (45 minutes’ drive) and Glasgow (50 minutes) are a cinch, but there’s no need to travel that far if you don't fancy it. Perhaps make a beeline for the UNESCO-listed industrial heritage site at New Lanark (20 minutes), where you can tour former cotton mills and take walks along the River Clyde. If you have kids in tow, next stop might be Clyde Valley Family Park (25 minutes), popular for its mini-train rides, crazy golf and animal encounters. There are some quite niche cultural activities in these parts too: Little Sparta (15 minutes) is home of an art walk celebrating the work of sculptor/poet/gardener Ian Hamilton Finlay. The market town of Biggar (15 minutes) is a lively spot with lots of pubs but also has the Victorian-era Purves Puppets, a theatre with a café and shop selling puppets attached. For a spot of shopping, the pleasant market town of Peebles (half an hour) has a decent selection of shops selling quality Scottish memorabilia; otherwise head for Livingston Designer Outlet (20 minutes), where you can unearth discount labels and treat the kids to world cuisine in the food outlets.

2 bedroom static caravan (hot tub, pet friendly)

Liked Everything!
Caravan was spotless.
Kids kept entertained with trampoline and outdoor space.
Hot tub was all set up when we arrived, ready to go.
The rooster’s were so funny and came to say hello many times!
Enjoyed stargazing at night.
Great location, quiet and relaxed.

Disliked Outdoor heat lamp didn’t work- Cameron did explain on arrival that it had to be disconnected but would have been great to have and sit outside in the colder weather.
Extra bedding/blankets would have been handy, was freezing at night aswell as
extra robes for after hot tub we only had 2 but we were a party of 5.
WiFi not great but this was a bonus for us and meant our kids actually spoke to us instead of staring at their screens! But could be an issue for anyone who’s relying on decent WiFi.
But honestly these are little things and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come back.
