Kirkcudbright is an attractive harbour town situated on the banks of the River Dee. The town itself is of historic and architectural interest with its ancient High Street, Tolbooth Arts Centre, Stewartry Museum and numerous galleries. Long frequented by artists, Kirkcudbright was home to the renowned artist, EA Hornel, one of the “Glasgow Boys”. This tradition is maintained today by a flourishing colony of painters and craft workers which has led to Kirkcudbright being named the “Artists’ Town”.
Kirkcudbright enjoys a wide variety of mainly family owned shops, pubs, hotels and restaurants, whilst offering a wide range of facilities, including its own swimming pool, 18-hole golf course, marina, bowling green, squash & tennis courts and an active summer festivities programme, including its own Jazz Festival, Scottish Nights and Tattoo. There is also a modern primary school, Kirkcudbright Academy secondary school, health centre, veterinary practice and library.
