"This is an extraordinary place merging the history of a 500-year-old building with contemporary high-end comforts. It is like time travelling but Braidwood Castle also offers Wi-Fi a dishwasher and a fabulous en-suite master bedroom right at the top of the tower. Braidwood Castle is in a class of its own a rare gem owned by the same family for 350 years but however tempting it sounds please be aware that the stairs are steep and narrow and a stay here would not be advisable if you would usually prefer to take the lift Orchard Cottage set beside the tower ref UK10671 sleeping 2 would be a more suitable choice.\nSet in the lovely Clyde Valley and also known as Hallbar Tower Braidwood Castle has a venerable history being built around 1581 as a fortified tower to protect the Douglas family and neighbours from Border Reivers and it still is a refuge of peace today. The tower was restored with enormous care and attention to authentic historical detail throughout this ancient building and the great hall has a unique painted ceiling.\nThe somewhat austere exterior has crow-step gables narrow windows and an external parapet walkway with fantastic views over the Braidwood Burn and the surrounding countryside. The tower was designed of course for that very purpose of giving early warning of unwelcome visitors\nVery effective electric central heating helps maintain this ancient stone building and is very cosy for visitors too. A steep stone staircase with deep treads built within the 1.5-metre exterior wall connects each floor with the kitchendining room and a toilet on the ground floor. The kitchendining room has a stone floor a barrel-vaulted ceiling and is fully equipped. On the next floor is the great hall which has a low 5ft 6in doorway a huge original fireplace with a wood burner and it is beautifully furnished with period oak furniture and lovely fabrics. The painted ceiling shows heraldic motifs flowers and beasts of the forest reflecting the fact that hunting was an everyday pursuit 500 years ago. Just imagine an evening in the peace and warmth of this special room then going up onto the battlements to look at the moon and stars. The bedrooms are on the next three floors and include a pretty single room and well-appointed bathroom above the great hall. There is also a spacious twin bedroom with a wash hand basin period furnishings and a vaulted ceiling. Finally the master bedroom at the top of the tower is reached by going out onto the parapet walkway it has a good sized shower room and lovely period furnishings.\nThe surrounding enclosed 1½-acre grounds comprise native woodland and an orchard with a seating area which is shared with guests in Orchard Cottage. A walk leads to the River Clyde directly from the grounds. The central location of this historic tower house enables easy access to some wonderful countryside in the Clyde Valley Woodlands National Nature Reserve just north of Lanark 5 miles where there are way marked trails to explore while at the UNESCO New Lanark World Heritage Centre on the magnificent Falls of Clyde you can discover how life was lived at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. Youngsters will love a visit to the Clyde Valley Family Park close by or enjoy a day in Glasgow which is very easy by train from Carluke. Shop 1 mile pub and restaurant ¾ mile.\nBraidwood Castle can be booked together with Orchard Cottage at Braidwood Castle ref UK10671 to accommodate up to 7 guests."

The Clyde Arc (known locally as the Squinty Bridge), is a road bridge spanning the River Clyde in Glasgow, in west central Scotland, connecting Finnieston, near the Clyde Auditorium and SECC with Pacific Quay and Glasgow Science Centre in Govan. A prominent feature of the bridge is its innovative curved design and the way that it crosses the river at an angle. The Arc is the first city centre traffic crossing over the river built since the Kingston Bridge was opened to traffic in 1969.

Words: Kate Coughlan Photos: Rachael McKenna “Not awesome,” says Christina Perriam, with more than a touch of southern understatement, about how she and her husband Callum Grant felt as they closed the doors of their four-day-old Christchurch retail shop, Perriam, and sent their newly trained staff home indefinitely. It had been a big project to launch a third brick-and-mortar retail outlet, which added to two others — the original Perriam store in Tarras, north of Cromwell, and the more recent premises on Wānaka’s main shopping street. As they headed home themselves, the long drive back to Wānaka gave them plenty
