The Hideout Stag Reviews

Alex Turner
Great service and quality
Amelia
We've tried quite a few micro cabins, but The Hideout (we stayed in The Stag) really stands out. It's super peaceful, cosyand has everything you could need. Perfect if you're after some proper downtime. Plus, getting out to explore is easy - local cafes, barsand the lovely New Lanark Falls are nearby for nice walks. We stayed from Saturday to Tuesdayand honestly, it was just the right amount of time. Would definitely recommend!
Jamie
We stayed in the pod and loved the incredible view of the fields and woodland with Mount Tinto in the background. It was spotlessly clean and thoughtfully arranged, with everything we needed for a comfy stay. Relaxing on the decking or soaking in the hot tub while watching wildlife-cows, sheep, owlsand hares-was just perfect. The location is ideal, within walking distance of Biggar and great for exploring Edinburgh or Glasgow. Definitely a peaceful spot we'll return to!
James
This place is just lovely, with stunning views right at the door. Relaxing in the hottub while watching cattle run by was truly special. Definitely would come back again and again!
Emma
The place is in a fantastic spot-beautiful scenery and just a short walk to a lovely little town. The pod was cosy, well-equippedand the hot tub was a lovely bonus. Would definitely stay again!

Smoo Cave - IV27 4QB
about 28 Miles
Smoo Cave is a popular attraction which can be enjoyed all year round but visitors should wrap up warm during the winter months.  This spectacular limestone sea-cave in Sutherland is the largest in Britain and is simply spectacular. The cave was formed by a burn that runs down into the rear chamber, as well as erosion caused by the sea. Guests can take the path from the car park which runs right through the cave. Boat trips are available in the summer months and are an excellent way to fully appreciate the cave from all angles.
