Carluke Hotels and Accommodation

Situated slightly south of a straight line between Scotland’s capital city of Edinburgh, and Glasgow, Carluke lies in the heart of the South Lanarkshire countryside in the Clyde Valley. Originally a Roman settlement, the town dates back to 700AD and is believed by some to be the resting place of the Holy Grail. During the industrial age, the town was a centre for corn milling, cotton weaving and coal mining, but being right at the heart of the county’s fruit growing area, Carluke is also famous for its production of jam. More recently, the town centre has undergone major redevelopment and now boasts an attractive shopping centre with many excellent hotels and restaurants. Staying at one of the budget hotels in Carluke, booked through EasyToBook.com, will see you situated in one of the filming locations for the movie, Braveheart, starring Mel Gibson. For golfing fanatics, Carluke’s Parkland Course, lying within the boundaries of a former country estate, will provide an excellent days’ entertainment.
