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.

A lovely, well-equipped flat in an interesting building. Situated in a quiet, historic area, ideal for exploring Paisley and Glasgow. Station is only 10 mins walk away with very frequent trains into Glasgow. Good off-street parking.

This was our second stay at Brough Hall, it was excellent again. Interesting architecture in a great location. It is amazing how peaceful the location is considering that it is a five minute walk to the centre of Paisley. The only night time noise we heard was an owl. The apartment is comfortable and very well equipped. The private gated parking is a bonus.

Comfortable large first floor apartment, well equipped with off road parking. A bit tricky to find without satnav and post code, as the instructions from Cottages.com were incomplete.
