Hotels in South Lanarkshire, United Kingdom

South Lanarkshire stretches south of Glasgow, with a cool climate-summers average 60°F (15°C), winters around 38°F (3°C)-and is famous for the 18th-century New Lanark cotton mill village, a UNESCO site where Robert Owen created a model industrial community. In summer, you can hike the Clyde Valley woodlands or paddle the River Clyde, while winter invites you to explore New Lanark's restored mill interiors and the interactive story of the workers' lives. The region splits into the historic mill hub and the rolling farmlands around Biggar, where you can cycle past Roman forts or fish for trout in the River Clyde.
