The hamlet is situated on two main roads, A73 and A721, so many of Central Scotland's communities can be accessed from there. It contains only a few houses, and a motorstore.

In 2019 it was recognised as being among the 10 healthiest places to live in the UK, according to research by Liverpool University.[1]
