Barrhill Woods Bed and Breakfast

This new Bed and breakfast, located in the delightful harbour town on the River Dee, Kirkcudbright is a gem in Dumfries and Galloway, is ideal for a quiet, relaxing stay.

Do you love walking, cycling, fishing, golf, art, photography and stunning scenery? Visiting Dumfries and Galloway, and more importantly, using Kirkcudbright as a base to explore is a great choice. With its range of independent shops and many galleries Kirkcudbright (pronounced Kur-coo-bree) is also known as the Artists Town.

Barrhill Woods B&B is located in an elevated position above the town just beneath Barrhill Woods. There is just a short walk into the town to sample the delights it has to offer.

If wildlife, art and photography is your interest, look no further. The woods, which are just a minute or two’s walk away, has a wildlife hide that is easy, and free, to access. There is an abundance of birds and plenty of red squirrels, so it should be possible to take some delightful images.

Alternatively for the writers and creative types, relaxing in my B&B should inspire.

If you have mobility challenges, the access is via a ramp. All facilities are on one level. The private bathroom to Bedroom One has a door into the bath, a winch strap within, plus a powerful over head shower. There is also a deployable handle by the standard height toilet.

To aid a restful nights sleep the bedding in all the rooms is luxurious Egyptian Cotton. The location is also peaceful and quiet.

To start your day, indulge in a 5 course breakfast. With fruit juice, fresh fruit salad, cereal, yoghurt and a full cooked English or Scottish breakfast the choice is yours.

To see the full list of events that, and there are plenty, which are hosted in Kirkcudbright check out the local website www.kirkcudbright.town.

I look forward to welcoming you.

The Crown and Anchor Bed and Breakfast and Tearooms, was the local pub in the small village of Dundrennan, the building has been completely renovated to a very high standard, whilst retaining as many of its original features as possible.

We are situated on the A711, Solway coast road between Dalbeattie and Kirkcudbright, opposite the old Cistercian Abbey in the small rural village of Dundrennan. Nestled amid some of the most beautifully stunning countryside.

Our rooms have been furnished and decorated to a very high standard. We can provide either a kingsize bed or twin beds, which ever our guests prefer.

Both rooms have tea and coffee making facilities and flat screen TV’s with a built in DVD player.

Both rooms are en suite with large showers, over mirror lights with electric shaving points and complimentary toiletries.

Tearooms

We are also a small, family run cafe which is very popular with locals and tourists alike. We offer a varied menu that we hope has something for everyone to enjoy. Our cakes are all homemade, we try to source all of the produce on our menu locally.

The cafe is cosy with stunning views over Fagra Hill, and Dundrennan Abbey. We have a small parking area next to the tearooms. Although we only allow assistance dogs inside the tearooms, we have an outdoor eating area for our dog walking friends.

Enjoy the peace of this beautiful Gothic abbey set in tree-fringed pastures where Mary Queen of Scots spent her last hours in Scotland.

This was the major abbey of the Cistercian order, which was founded on austere principles but became very wealthy from farming – especially sheep farming. The abbey’s surviving
stonework includes beautiful carvings.
