Description

Belmont is a substantial stone built property set in a prominent position on the hillside overlooking the River Dee. The accommodation is on three levels and includes a self-contained one bedroom annex. Belmont has ample space for off-street parking and the spacious grounds.

This delightful and elegant property is situated in an elevated position on the edge of Kirkcudbright overlooking the River Dee and the rolling hills beyond. The property is located adjacent to the first green of Kirkcudbright Gold course and features a spectacular rooftop terrace providing what must count as one of the most spectacular views in the town.
The spacious lawn provides ample room for those keen on gardening. The seating area provides the perfect setting for “alfresco” dining in the summer. Mature trees, shrubs and lawns complete this well-tended garden.

Kirkcudbright itself is an attractive harbour town which boasts an array of historical and architectural features of interest including a castle in its town centre, an ancient High Street, Tollbooth Arts Centre, Stewartry Museum and numerous galleries, including the newly opened Art Gallery and café on St Mary Street. Known as the “Artist Town”, Kirkcudbright was the home to the renowned artist E.A. Hornel (one of the “Glasgow Boys”).  The town has an affiliation for art exhibitions and crafts. Within the town there is a wide variety of family owned  shops, pubs, hotel and restaurants, active sports club facilities including the golf course, the marina, swimming pool, tennis courts, squash courts, as well as an active summer festivities program including its own Jazz Festival, tattoo and riding of the marches celebrations.
