ABOUT SHERBROOKE Two-Bedroom APARTMENT Your “Home from Home” (Graded 4 Star by Visit Scotland prior to retirement of Quality Assurance Scheme) "Self-Catering" Apartment in Pollokshields on Glasgow’s leafy South Side which will cater for your every need in a safe and prestigious environment. Apartments have a tranquil and safe atmosphere and are quietly situated on the ground floor of a small, private residential apartment block in the highly desirable Millionaires' District of Pollokshields. Pollokshields was Glasgow’s first garden suburb and still retains that old Victorian charm relating back to its history when it served the rich Victorian merchants who established the City of Glasgow. It is sometimes hard to believe, as you stroll along the tree lined avenues with their grand architecture, that you are only 5 mins from the bustling City Centre and just 2/3 mins to the M8/M77/M74 Motorways which means that it is easy head off in any direction. Dumbreck Train Station on the Paisley Canal Line is a 2 minute walk away and a short 5 minute hop will take you straight into the centre of Glasgow. Local buses are also nearby. The exclusive, up-market Sherbrooke Castle Hotel is closeby and the Bar and Restaurant are open to non-residents with a small local convenience store nearby. Not only this, but you will be ideally and centrally situated to enable you to visit Edinburgh, Loch Lomond, Stirling Castle and the Wallace Monument, Ayrshire (Rabbie Burns/Auld Lang Syne Country), all of which are only a short 40 minute drive away. After your busy day, you will be able to come home to Sherbrooke and enjoy a glass of wine or perhaps even “A Wee Dram of Scotch Whisky” relaxing on the pleasant outdoor terrace with its seating and planters. Elevated and set well back from a quiet road surrounded by trees and garden, from your large north-facing windows you can enjoy unique wonderful panoramic views north over the city spotting many of Glasgow's famous landmarks over to to The Campsie Fells and The Trossachs - Views especially good after Autumn leaves have fallen!

About the host
Hosted by Michele George
Hello! My name is Michele George and I am the Owner and Manager of Boswell and Sherbrooke Apartments, collectively called "Glasgow Self Catering Apartments". I offer "Home from Home" Self Catering Accommodation (Prior to retirement of Quality Assurance scheme Graded 4 Stars by Visit Scotland - The National Tourist Board for Scotland). I have an conscientious, knowledgeable but unobtrusive approach. I am a member of the ASSC - The Association of Scotland's Self Caterers so you can be assured of a professional and efficient service.
The most important thing to me is that my guests are happy. I know that, from experience, if you stay once, you will return again if you come back to Glasgow, as my many repeat guests do, time after time.
I graduated with Honours as a Teacher of Physical Education in 1982 and then taught in London. I worked as a Holiday Representative for Thomson Holidays for six years and I bring that valuable experience very much into how I organise what I do now in terms of hospitality, organisation and attention to detail.
I then retrained as a Teacher of Primary Education before meeting my husband and starting a family.
I started "Glasgow Self Catering Apartments" in 2007 and have welcomed thousands of happy visitors, many of whom return again and again.....
I look forward to welcoming you to the wonderful City of Glasgow.
Why they chose this property
I have been operating since 2007 when I started off with just one apartment. I now operate four apartments (Graded 4 Stars by Visit Scotland which is the National Tourist Board for Scotland prior to their retiral of the Quality Assurance scheme) in two different but equally lovely areas on Glasgow's South Side - Langside and Pollokshields West. I was born and brought up in Shawlands on the South Side of Glasgow so I am very familiar with the area and its benefits. I truly want all my guests to experience the best of what Glasgow has to offer and so my locations were carefully chosen for their peaceful, safe and prestigious aspects. City Centres can be noisy, Car Parking can be non-existent or very expensive. My locations take away all this stress and yet allow quick and easy access to the hustle, bustle and excitement of the City Centre. Minutes from M77/M8/M74 makes this a great central base to explore the friendly City of Glasgow and beyond.
What makes this property unique
You will love the feeling of "Coming Home" when you stay at Sherbrooke or Boswell Apartments. Each unit is unique and yet each retains the air of welcome and relaxation with everything in place to enable guests to enjoy a stress-free stay. The experience is based on quality and a high standard of hospitality and you can be sure of a warm welcome and a stay which is tailored to your own specific needs.
