Location
The desirable village of Crossford commands a prime position within the Clyde Valley, long known as “the fruit bowl” of west central Scotland, spawning a number of cottage industries within the neighbouring towns of Carluke and Lanark. The village provides a highly reputable primary school and the town of Lanark provides first class secondary schooling.
Glasgow provides a range of private schools, which are renowned for their academic excellence, and distinguished universities. The town of Lanark is 5 miles to the south east. Perhaps the best known town within the Clyde Valley, it provides a broad range of shops, a supermarket, banks, a selection of restaurants and a variety of sports and recreational facilities including the Lanark Golf Club which boasts a championship standard 18 hole golf course. New Lanark, internationally recognised as a World Heritage Site, is a beautifully restored 18th century cotton mill village close to the Falls of Clyde and is still a working community, attracting visitors from all points of the compass.
