Kirkcudbright Quay

Highlight • Settlement

Pretty and lively quay with loads of restaurants and cafes. There's a good view of the bridge(s) and Maclellan's Castle so it's a nice place to stop for a break.

Tip by

15.8 km

Apparently James Brown (not that one) bought the estate for £14,000 in 1894, and immediately filled it full of cars.

Often referred to in historical documents as "The Toy Fort", you can now rent the castle on Air BnB!
