About this property

Elegant Victorian Apartment With Amazing Views In Glasgow's West End

This elegant Victorian Period three bedroom flat is located in Hyndland in the heart of Glasgow’s fashionable and historic West End. Hyndland is the true gem of the West End; a virtually intact neighbourhood of Victorian tenements that is like traveling back in time. Located at the top of the hill in a quiet tree lined street above Hyndland Bowling Green, the apartment has unrivalled breathtaking views across the Westend skyline and, further afield, landmarks on the river Clyde, the Campsie Fells and the hills of Dumgoyne. This stunning traditional red sandstone flat of over 1900 square feet comprises of six spacious rooms retaining many original features, including period fireplaces in each room, hardwood floors, and corniced high ceilings. All rooms in this elegant flat are wonderfully peaceful and private, and the flat has been included as a filming location for a BBC4 programme.

The lounge features dramatic views from an enchanting five window turret where you can watch the day start in this peaceful neighbourhood. The room is handsomely decorated with period furniture throughout and includes a television, multi-region DVD player and cd player. The recently renovated kitchen is very spacious and features a two sided cooking/preparation area, dishwasher, Nespresso and Delonghi coffee machines, panini maker, and a large kitchen/dining table which can seat four. An adjacent utility room includes a large fridge/freezer, microwave and washer/dryer. In addition, a separate formal dining room provides a lovely atmosphere for evenings, and can also serve as an office space for visiting professionals. Each comfortable and quiet double bedroom is fully carpeted and a long hallway leads to all of the rooms in the apartment, making each very private. All of the three bedrooms are uniquely themed and attractively furnished. Guests are provided with luxurious down comforters and pillows (non-allergen available on request) and plush bath towels. Free wifi is provided throughout the flat, and there is an extensive library of books, including regional guidebooks, for you to enjoy during your stay.

Make this your Scottish home in Glasgow and take home great memories of your stay. We look forward to welcoming you.

We loved our stay here! Close to transport, restaurants, pubs and the Uni! Great place to walk about and get lost. Margaret met us and made us feel very welcome. Also met the neighbours across the way at #5. Classic very friendly Glaswegians! Invited me in for a wee glass.

Nice Flat- Quiet Neighborhood
I am currently traveling through Scotland and England with my wife and two adult children. We just stayed at the Hyndland flat; we checked out of there this morning. Overall, our stay was very good. The flat is in a nice, quiet neighborhood that is close to a lot of restaurants and shops, and it’s only a 6-8 minute walk to the train station. We used the train several times to get to City Center and to Edinburgh. There are lots of things to see and do in those two places alone. In addition to places to eat, there are a couple of bars and a small grocery store in the immediate area. Multiple restaurants, bars, and Kelvingrove Art Museum are all within a 15-20 minute walk. The flat is set up nice. There’s a fully furnished kitchen to those that want to prepare a meal or two, and the place is comfortable. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat, but there are two issues that came up with my wife and kids. First, you’ll have to climb three flights of stairs to get to the flat. People with mobility issues, or people carrying large bags of luggage, or groceries, might have a problem with that. I knew what I was getting when I booked this- I read the reviews- but the stairs, multiple times a day, always carrying something, can be a pain. The only other thing I can, or will, document, is the amount of noise the floors make. There are hard wood floors pretty much throughout the flat, and other than a few spots, every step you take will creek. If you’re staying alone, it’s not a big deal, but If there are others that like to sleep in a bit, they won’t get the extra sleep (unless you pick a spot and stay there). I’m an early riser, and just walking to the bathroom or kitchen to make coffee, it felt like I was waking everyone in the flat with me, and probably those below. Other than these two things, I’d say the place is perfect. It really is. If you don’t mind climbing stairs several times a day, after walking all day, or squeaky floors, this place really is for you.

Wonderful accommodation in a lovely part of Glasgow. Comfortable, clean and spacious. Quiet at night. Near to tube station for easy access. Went to Loch Lomand and Stirling by train. Botanic gardens in Glasgow are a lovely place to visit. Thank you to Margaret for her introduction to the property. Highly recommend.

Overall this property was really special. There were a few minor items that could do with improvement (non working radios, blunt kitchen knives, weak shower pressure) but the important things were between good and spectacular.

A happy visit.
The apartment was spacious and well equipped. The beds were very comfortable and cosy. Local shops nearby as well as good transport links into the city. The views from the lounge window were amazing - - chimney tops close by and all the way to mountains in the distance when looking in two directions. The dusk skies offering a variety of changing colours.

Lovely Flat
My husband and I came to Glasgow with our 2 daughters from Canada. We’ll recommend this flat to our friends. The hosts were lovely, the location is central to activities and public transportation. It’s a quick walk to the Hop On Hop Off tourist Bus and trains. We loved the flat. It was clean and comforting to come home to after a long day out! Everything you need is available, and it’s quiet. Perfect.

Perfectly located luxury flat
We enjoyed our stay at this Hyndland flat. It is beautiful and spacious. The flat has 3 lovely, well appointed bedrooms. The kitchen fits the era of the home, yet it’s completely new with everything one would need and sparkling clean. This home feels like a real home, with the lovingly cared for antiques and books, not just a rental property. The views are amazing. From the living room we could watch the sunset and see the lights go on in the flats around us, which makes one feel a part of this lovely neighborhood. We walked to shops and restaurants and always felt comfortable and safe. I would recommend you stay here to feel like you actually live in Glasgow! One warning: you may end up just staying in one day, (as we did), to laze around and enjoy this luxurious, homey, & comfortable flat...and miss a few sights of Glasgow!

A wonderful period apartment in a beautiful area
A relaxing week here in a comfortable and well equipped apartment. We especially liked the views from the lovely large sitting room. We found the area of Hyndland very pleasant and we were able to travel into the city centre many times as the local railway station was only a 5 minute walk. The reason for us awarding the accommodation 4 rather than 5 stars is that the only toilet is in the bathroom!

Excellent and Quiet
This was our first travel in UK and the week dedicated to Glasgow was most enjoyable in this spacious and quiet flat with « vintage » furniture that changes it little bit , for those who like, of modern interiors a bit interchangeable that can be seen on Homelidays/Airbnb websites. The neighbourhood is very calm and even luxurious with beautiful architecture perfectly homogeneous of sand-stone in all surrounding streets. The top floor flat delivers clear vews on a park and in the distance the hills arounds Glasgow but it must be earned !! The climb requires sharpened calves. Kitchen is very complete in ustensils of all kind, particularly a competition gas cooking stove where we could cook excellent local products , salmon pigeons, meat from James Allan, seafood from Fish Plaice and so on ...almost three persons can easily take meals in the kitchen. Journeys : Subway station is 15-20 mn on foot in a commercial area with student bars. An to get city-center there is Hyndland Station at 10 mn. We rented a car for a few days and no problem to park within 100 yds Very good welcome by Margaret with much detailed informations and also from other users of the building : Lorna meet us on our arrival and tell us about Doors Open Days in Glasgow and she came again to our flat to bring us the corresponding documents. We would highly recommend this rental D M Rouyer
