Brough Hall is a wonderful listed Victorian building located in the Oakshaw conservation area within Paisley, just west of Glasgow. This first floor, self-catering apartment is ideal for a couple who want to enjoy all that Glasgow - a City of Culture - and the surrounding area have to offer, whilst staying in a charming historic property. The building is named after Peter Brough who was one of the wealthiest men in Paisley during the late 19th century and lived on this very site. Brough Hall was built after his death in Scottish Baronial style and was originally designated as a nurses home. This is carved above the front door, from where the nurses ministered to the sick and pregnant of Paisley.
Today there are five privately owned apartments. Flat Four is located on the first floor, looking out over the front of the property. Oakshaw Street is quiet, leafy and is a no through road. Inside the apartment there is an open plan living space with high ceilings and large windows. Everything leads off from the lounge, the kitchen is tucked round the corner and is galley style, and the dining area sits within the tower alcove. The bedroom has a wonderful large super kingsize bed.
Brough Hall really does make a fantastic holiday location from where to access both city life and countryside locations across central and southern Scotland alike.

Apartment looks lovely and has many good features. However there were problems with the oven. These had been noted consistently in the visitors book, by other visitors, for more than a year. Only the grill worked. Also, the oven was filthy. All internal surfaces were thickly coated with grease. Using the grill resulted in a noxious stench of ancient fat permeating the whole apartment. Fortunately, the microwave worked.

We really enjoyed our stay at Brough Hall. The flat was a good size and it had everything we needed. It's a unique building, it felt like returning to a mini castle at the end of the day! We had our bikes with us, and from there could get onto the canal bike path and head west on dedicated cycle tracks to the coast. The train services were frequent and excellent, it's quick and easy to get into central Glasgow.
