Location
Roberton is a small hamlet situated about 10 miles from Biggar, and just 3 miles or so from the M74, giving easy access to Glasgow, the south and Edinburgh in the east. Roberton boasts a busy village hall with community clubs ranging from mother and toddler groups to gardening clubs. In addition to great road links, ultrafast broadband is available in the village.
Biggar is a thriving former market town situated a stone's throw from the Scottish Borders. It has long been a popular commute for those seeking country living within easy access of both Edinburgh and Glasgow city centres. Biggar is just 28 miles from Edinburgh and 39 from Glasgow and is well located for access to the M8, M9, M74 and both Edinburgh and Glasgow International Airports.
The bustling high street boasts an excellent range of general stores, speciality retail outlets, cafés and restaurants. Biggar has a golf course, boating pond and tennis courts, along with popular bowling and rugby clubs. Biggar also boasts the famous Biggar Puppet Theatre and the popular, family-friendly, Biggar Little Festival which is held in October. The surrounding countryside provides almost limitless opportunities for fishing, hillwalking, trail running and mountain biking, (the nearby Glentress Forest is a mountain biking mecca).
In terms of education, there is private preschool/daycare provision , as well as both nursery, primary and secondary schooling.
