As part of the Kingsbeck Estate in the village of Coulter, we have two charming and recently renovated cottages available to book for a self-catering break. While Lanarkshire is the adventurer’s paradise, it also offers a wee bit of escapism from the day-to-day. A wonderful place to curl up in front of the fire with a good book or a glass of something well earned. With so much to see and do on your doorstep you’ll be spoilt for choice.
In each cottage you’ll find a handy local guide to local amenities and suggestions of things to see and do, as well as a small welcome pack. To view availability and further information just click ‘Book Today’ beside your chosen property.
A warm welcome awaits here at the Kingsbeck Estate.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms, the larger of the two has a comfortable kingsize bed while the second bedroom is a little more flexible and can be used as either a twin or super kingsize bed.
