DUMFRIES & GALLOWAY. .
. .
is one of Scotland's best kept secrets with its unspoilt coast line,
varied countryside and mild climate influenced by the Gulf Stream. The
roads are quiet, the towns and villages provide lots of things to do
and see, but above all you will find the people friendly and helpful.
If you prefer an active holiday there are hills to climb, paths to walk, golf courses to conquer, pools in which to swim, and fish to be caught. For those who like to potter we have Castles, Museums, Art Galleries & Craft Centres and many beautiful Gardens to explore.
TWYNHOLM.....
is a working village with a School, Church, Post Office, two pubs, The
David Coulthard museum(The Pit Stop), a garage and a village store bursting
with hundreds of different items - almost everything from a pin to an
elephant!
KIRKCUDBRIGHT.....
with its wide streets, castle, harbour, galleries & museum has a good
selection of shops, pubs and eating places.
