The Hopetoun Arms Hotel in Leadhills is in a quite remote area but the welcome was warm and friendly and the food was good pub grub. Many walkers miss this little pub but after a rainy day on the hills we found it cosy and friendly. The rooms were fine and there was a real coal fire in the lounge... More

We stayed here for one night on the way up to Inverness on our honeymoon. It was very convenient for popping off the motorway. There is a fabulous road leading to Leadhills from the M74. Good fun! We started in a little flat separate from the other rooms, which had been newly decorated and was very nice - very good... More

Hopetoun Arms Hotel is situated in the beautiful village of Leadhills, not far from the M74 motorway when you cut off for Abington, Lanarkshire. Just follow the signs for Leadhills ( Railway ) Beautiful journey through the hills especially on a nice sunny day. First visit was in Feb 2012 and since then, it has not been my last. Owned... More

After a couple of nights camping outside Wanlockhead, my partner and i decided to stay for a night or two in a hotel and found the Hopetoun Arms in Leadhills to be the closest and best placed for our needs for the few remaining days of our break. On arrival, although the hotel doesn't open untl 5.00pm, a very nice... More

What a gem of a place! I had a fantastic weekend with friends, Rab, Rachel & Gillian gave us a very warm welcome. Rooms are clean and cosy, breakfasts are just what the doctor ordered and the coal fires in both the lounge and snug bar are perfect to doze by after a long walk in the beautiful surrounding scenery....

Arrived without great expectations in this small ex-mining community receiving welcome from host in bar with coal fire burning. Simple rooms but clean with plenty of hot water and Bath. Simple home-cooked well priced supper. I had excellent liver. Good crack in the bar. Would recommend this to anyone for a genuine community experience. Very near South Upland Way and... More
