Situated in the heart of the Southern Uplands, Leadhills is Scotland's second highest village and is surrounded by beautiful hills. A popular spot with walkers, hikers and cyclists, it lies a short walk from the Southern Upland Way. The village is a mile from the Dumfries & Galloway border and has a hotel, a shop and a 9-hole golf course. There are also gold-panning excursions - you might be lucky... Leadhills is home to the UK's oldest subscription library and a lovingly restored narrow gauge railway.
