Kirkcudbright (pronounced kir-koo bree) is a pretty little town with attractive coloured houses positioned along its historic High Street. It has a fascinating history illustrated by the Tolbooth with its gothic tower, the Old Jail and of course MacLellan's Castle. The town has a fantastic programme of events throughout the year including the spectacular tattoo, brolly parade, jazz festival and a medieval fayre. Not forgetting the arts and crafts trail and the Spring Fling. Discover the history behind the Riding of the Marches and the Kirkin 'of the Cornet!

Visitors are impressed by the superb coastline of this region with quiet sandy beaches all with a backdrop of either, the Galloway Hills, the rich fertile agricultural land, superb castles or pretty little market towns.

Accommodation overview: Braemar is a delightful cottage over a century of age and in the very heart of New Galloway which is nestled in the valley of The Glenkens and surrounded by beautiful countryside. The village lies close to the Galloway Forest Park; the largest forest park in Britain covering some 300 square miles of forested hills, wild moorland and numerous lochs. The Galloway Hills are very accessible from the cottage and although not as lofty as the mountains further north they are every bit as challenging but surprisingly devoid of people. New Galloway was once Scotland's smallest Royal Burgh and is a delightful village with pretty white washed houses. To the west of the village the Galloway Forest Park is vast and beautiful and provides many opportunities for cycling and walking. It is home to falcons and buzzards, feral goats and red deer. The Red Kite Trail is on the doorstep and there is a feeding station at Laurieston. The Southern Upland Way one of Scotland's long distance footpaths crosses the park. Highly recommended is a drive along the Queen's Way a 19 mile stretch of scenic road. There is a visitor's centre by Clatteringshaws Loch and take a short stroll to Bruce's Stone. Further down the road guests may be able to witness wild goats and red deer close at hand. Take a detour onto the Raider's Road and spend time at the glorious Otter Pools for a spot of paddling and don't forget to discover the Labyrinth. Pike fishing is renowned in Galloway, especially on Loch Ken, which is the venue for many annual course fishing competitions. The village is home to New Galloway Golf Club, a gem amongst rural courses in Scotland and noted for its superb natural greens and views of the Galloway Hills and Loch Ken. Members feel it is arguably the best nine hole golf course in Scotland! The newly opened CatStrand is on the doorstep and promotes a varied music, arts and exhibition programme and offers a cinema, local information and a cafe. No visit to New Galloway is complete without a visit to Kitty's to enjoy a high tea in a traditional tea room; it's like walking onto a Miss Marple television set! Loch Ken has a sailing centre on its east side and there are a host of watery activities including water skiing. Property has electric heaters.
