Crofthead Maidenhill

Newton Mearns has grown from a rural village to a highly desirable residential area. The Maidenhill
development brings an attractive new neighbourhood to a strategically outstanding location close
to the junction of the M77 and the A726 Glasgow Southern Orbital. There are good bus links
between Newton Mearns and Glasgow, and frequent train services between Whitecraigs, three
miles away, and Glasgow Central.

There is a wealth of green spaces and play areas in and around the town, ranging from the urban
parks and the woodlands lining Capelrig Burn to Rouken Glen Country Park and the superb Dams to
Darnley Country Park, a vast expanse of forest and meadow incorporating five reservoirs. Nearby
golf courses include Eastwood and East Renfrewshire.

Excellent amenities can be found within walking distance of Maidenhill. The traditional independent
shops are complemented by The Avenue, a retail park in the town centre with more than 40 stores
covering fashion, footwear and food, including M&S, Asda, Waterstone’s and Boots. There are
banks, a post office, diners and bars within the complex, and a dental surgery and a large GP
practice close by. Local schools include Mearns Primary and Nursery, on the edge of Maidenhill, and
St Cadoc’s Primary, approximately a mile away. A new Primary School and Nursery is due to open
at Maidenhill in early 2019. Secondary schools include Eastwood, north of the town centre, which
has a state-of-the-art Sports Centre with gym and swimming facilities for public use.
