🐾 A day in the life of a dog-friendly stay at Kirkstyle Hotel…

🌅 Morning
Wake up in the heart of Biggar with your four-legged travel companion by your side. At Kirkstyle Hotel, dogs are part of the getaway too! 🐶

🥾 Time for walkies
After breakfast, it’s time to stretch those legs. Head out for a wander around Burnbraes Park, explore the paths around Biggar, or, if you and your pup are feeling adventurous, venture a little further for a walk up Tinto Hill or Coulter Fell and take in those beautiful countryside views. 🌿🐾

☕ An afternoon in Biggar
Make your way back into town and spend some time exploring Biggar High Street and its fantastic independent shops.

And, of course, your four-legged friend deserves a little holiday treat too! 🦴 Pop into Healthy Pets, our local independent pet shop, and let them pick out a treat (or two!) to take back to the hotel. 🐶🛍️

🔥 Dinner by the fire
As evening rolls around, take the short stroll to our sister hotel, The Elphinstone Hotel, where you and your pup can settle in for a cosy evening in front of the fire.

Enjoy a delicious dinner and a well-earned drink while your four-legged companion curls up beside you after a busy day of exploring. 🍽️🍷🐾

🌙 Time to call it a night
Then it’s back to Kirkstyle Hotel for a cosy night’s sleep, ready for another day of adventures.

Because a getaway is always better when your best friend can come too. ❤️🐶

⭐ Meet the Team ⭐

One of the things that makes an independent hotel a little different, is the people behind it!

Meet Janice, one of the faces you might see during your stay with us at The Kirkstyle Hotel.

Janice has been part of the team at Kirkstyle Hotel since 2024. I have two roles, customer facing so you will see me at reception and at breakfast and I support guests over the phone and by email.
I also support the business behind the scenes with bookkeeping, payroll and all things financial.

Outside of work I enjoy horse riding, all forms of dance, diy and I am studying for a degree with the Open University.

Next time you’re visiting, make sure to say Hello! 👋

A Weekend in Biggar

Looking for a relaxed weekend away? Biggar is the perfect place to slow things down, enjoy good food and discover some brilliant independent local businesses.

Start Saturday with a wander along the High Street. One of the best things about Biggar is the number of independent shops you can explore — pop into Merry & Bright, Cloud Nine, Biggar Bookshop and Arbory Rose, along with plenty of other small local businesses dotted around the town.

Take your time browsing, pick up a gift or two, then stop for a coffee at Aroma, The Coffee Spot or Zest. And if you fancy something sweet, pop into Taylors of Biggar for an ice cream before continuing your wander.

For a little local history, visit Biggar & Upper Clydesdale Museum and discover more about the town and the surrounding area.

When evening comes around, head to The Elphinstone Hotel on the High Street for dinner and a drink before settling in for the night.

On Sunday, enjoy a leisurely breakfast before heading out for a walk around the Boating Pond and Public Park — a lovely way to enjoy some fresh air and a slower start to the day.

You could also check what’s on at Biggar Puppet Theatre, a much-loved local attraction and something a little different to add to your weekend.

Afterwards, take another wander through town, enjoy the surrounding countryside, or revisit any of the shops and cafés you missed the day before.

Biggar really does lend itself to an easy weekend away — independent shops, good food, local history, countryside and plenty to discover along the way.

Sometimes the best weekends are the ones where you don’t need to rush anywhere.
