Kirkintilloch was recently named as the best place to live in Scotland based on research on by independent buying agency, Garrington Property Finders.
The town is only nine miles away from Glasgow and has a great selection of bars, cafes and restaurants to head to for a bite to eat or drink with there being Japanese, Indian and Thai cuisines on offer.
