The property is a short walk to the train station or the "downtown" area of Barrhead for food & drink. It's outside the main city of Glasgow which is what I wanted: a bit of quiet countryside at an affordable rate. The owners have 2 lovely dogs and one of them smokes - FYI if you're allergic or sensitive to smells (though the dogs are not allowed in the rooms). Comfy bed, hot shower, friendly and welcoming proprietors, a fox, highland cows, deer, and all the birds are just up the road.
