Days Inn Abington – M74

We are continently located between Douglas and Crawford Castles. Despite being a little worse for wear, the ruins are very impressive and give you an idea of the history in the area. For history buffs, we are also close to the Crawfordjohn Heritage Centre, the Polish Memorial Garden, and the Leadhills Mining Museum.

The surrounding areas are perfect for walks and taking in the scenery. Mennock Pass is particularly breath-taking, and the Tinto Hill walk is a firm favourite. Our guests also love visiting with their dogs, as they thoroughly enjoy the fresh air and endless opportunities to stretch their legs. Our Abington M74 hotel staff especially enjoy meeting our furry visitors and always look forward to their next stay.

A little further away at the head of the Clyde Valley is the historic town of Hamilton, thought to date back to the days of Strathclyde (900-1100). Places of interest include the Hamilton Mausoleum famed for having the longest-lasting echo of any building; the oldest surviving building in Hamilton is the Low Parks Museum which details the history of South Lanarkshire; and the Hamilton Old Parish Church designed by noted Scottish architect William Adam.
