Crossbasket Castle Hotel & Restaurant

On the banks of the River Calder in High Blantyre, just outside Glasgow. A historic castle-turned-luxury hotel about 12 km from the city center and roughly a 15-minute drive to Glasgow Green and Hampden Park. Nearby highlights include the University of the West of Scotland, Calderglen Country Park and the David Livingstone Centre; Glasgow International Airport is the closest major airport.

A restored 15th-century estate that blends historic stonework with modern comforts. The hotel has nine individually decorated guestrooms with pillowtop beds, Egyptian cotton sheets, flat-screen TVs and DVD players, plus private bathrooms stocked with designer toiletries. Expect riverside terraces, manicured gardens and a vibe that’s luxe but lived-in—perfect for weddings, special events and boutique escapes. Pet-friendly and family-friendly options are available, with babysitting offered for a surcharge.

Take in garden and terrace views, enjoy concierge service, and book wedding or event services on site. The property features a library and a children’s playroom, free valet parking, laundry and dry-cleaning, and complimentary Wi‑Fi throughout. Wake up to riverside mornings and unwind in the bar/lounge after a day of exploring.

Two meeting rooms for small events, 24-hour front desk support, complimentary newspapers in the lobby and high-speed internet throughout the property. Valet parking and laundry/dry-clean services add convenience for business travelers.
