This is the ONLY place to stay in Glasgow! Bryan welcomed us and answered all of our questions. The apartment is huge and can easily accommodate up to four. We had four massive windows with a street view. The shower was great with perfect water pressure. It was easy to adjust the temperature in our apartment. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, pots, pans, etc. It has a washer AND dryer, which was necessary for our extended stay! The wi-fi was a solid connection. Communication with the staff, Ged and Bryan, was almost immediate, clear, and helpful. The many popular murals are within walking distance and along with many places to dine, snack or drink. Our apartment was our home away from home.

Brig O'Doon
"Until standardisation of weights and measures in the 18th century, a "mile" in Scotland could be a variable distance. Generally a Scottish mile was longer than a mile in England, a fact which was immortalised by Robert Burns in his poem "Tam o' Shanter" - "We think na on the lang Scots miles..." After the Union of the Parliaments in 1701, the standard English measure began to be introduced in Scotland, gradually replacing the Lang Scots Mile. The Lang Scots Mile Walk was created in 2002 on the seafront of Ayr to commemorate the town's historical links with Burns as well as to encourage healthy exercise. It was estimated that a 10 stone man or woman walking Lang Scots Mile would burn off 115 calories and a 16 stone person, 184 calories."
