New Lanark is an 18th-century village, originally designed as a model industrial community. Today, its historic mill buildings, school and workers’ homes have been beautifully restored and transformed into shops, museums and the 4-star New Lanark Mill Hotel. Overlooking the River Clyde and the surrounding Conservation Area, the hotel features comfortable bedrooms and a charming rooftop garden with stunning views. Guests can also enjoy excellent leisure facilities, including a six-metre swimming pool, modern gym, sauna and steam room. It’s the perfect setting for a festive break in the Scottish Borders, complete with a visit to Edinburgh on Christmas Eve and a Boxing Day outing to watch a traditional pantomime.
