Kirkcudbright seems a small village / town but it has a library, museum, swimming pool, tennis courts, post office and many independent shops. It also has a marina and is an active fishing harbour. It has styled itself as anArtists Town but I did not explore this side of Kirkcudbright. It is also a dark skies area and has a dark skies planetarium. In short I think there is something for everyone.

Kirkcudbright is a great wee town.
Kirkcudbright is a great wee town. Plenty of cafes, galleries and things to do both in the town and its surrounds. It is a great place if you are interested in art and the countryside is fantastic to explore by car or bike if you are feeling fit. Broughton house was our favorite paid for attraction and the Kirkudbright gallery our favourite free one. We would also highly recommend a trip to the Red Kite centre at feeding time for an amazing display of avian aerobatics.

We were there to explore family history and had a car. That took us to the small villages and farms around Kirkcudbright, and all of that was lovely - the countryside, seaside, farmlands were all wonderful.

A very pretty small town with plenty of good cafes and restaurants. Highlight for us was the Solway Tide Cafe - gorgeous cakes and scones and really nice coffee. No shortage of galleries, museums, great local walks and friendly locals.
Breakfast was lovely, and there was a great choice on the breakfast menu, full Scottish , kippers and eggs we could choice what we wanted, Staff were very very friendly, The room was spacious and very clean,
We had a lovely evening meal, and again a lovely menu, and also the days specials to choice from.
But what a Really loved was the kindness of the staff, and the infos every morning on the menu... ie: Tide Times and a daily walk route, brilliant idea , I have been to many hotels but this little details was fantasic
Perfect location! Right at the heart of Kirkcudbright and an easy walk to the river and to the rest of the town. The room was very spacious for a single. It was decorated to a high quality and immaculately clean. Breakfast, from the Full Scottish to the porridge was very generous and delicious. All of the staff I met were friendly and welcoming. The skies in that part of the world are amazing. My room was at the front and I had stunning evening sky views towards the sunset.
Our trip was for the purpose of going to Galloway where my McClellan and Seaton family originated. A lifetime wish. I initially chose the Kirkcudbright Bay Shore Hotel because of its close proximity to MacLellan Castle. Our hosts, Lisa and Nish made our stay most memorable in their historic and tastefully restored property. The food was exquisite and some of the best on our wonderful journey. Salute to the chef 👨🍳
What a great hotel, perfect room “a deluxe suite” 😁 with loads of space and a separate seating area from the bedroom. Great value at £120 for a night. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Great restaurant with an excellent Tapas menu, which was exciting for my Spanish partner. Would certainly recommend staying here and if we visit again we’d happily book at the Kirkcudbright Bay Hotel
The cottage was spotless and it was like home from home. Kirkcudbright is such a friendly place that you don’t want to leave. The town is like one of those Christmas films with all the little independent shops. So many places to visit with breathtaking scenery that you need several days here. The hosts were excellent. Good Wi-Fi, warm comfy beds and everything was within walking distance.
The staff where exceptionally helpful especially when it came to helping with meals from the menu. I am gluten and lactose intolerant...but had 2 stunning evening meals in the restaurant where the chef catered/altered things to suit.
Great position in the town. Dogs were allowed to stay. Clean hotel and lovely atmosphere.
Beautiful house close enough for a walk into Kirkcudbright. Large, spacious and well-equipped with everything we needed for our holiday. Easy parking, small but attractive garden to sit out in and in a quiet residential area. The whole visit felt like a (very spacious) home from home. All the mod cons.
Central location, comfortable beds, quality towels, good shower, plenty of storage. Staff very friendly, could not do enough for you. Tasty well cooked breakfast, plenty of variety to suit all tastes. Quiet rooms, lovely snug area where children and dogs are welcomed. Would recommend this hotel.
Beautifully clean house and such a joy to stay somewhere genuinely pet-free as we have some allergies in our family. Extremely comfortable beds and a high quality of furnishing and decoration. Perfectly situated near the centre of Kirkcudbright but still felt tranquil.
The location is excellent being right in the centre of Kirkcudbright. The room was warm on arrival which we appreciated as the weather was very cold. It was clean and the bed comfortable and we were pleased to find tea making facilities in the room.
A bit more high-class than I'm used to. Room and shower were excellent. Clean towels provided every day. Good breakfasts. All of my fellow travelers were of one mind. This was a high-quality hotel. Staff was very friendly but professional.
Our room and seemingly the whole hotel has been newly renovated. The staff were excellent and the Scottish breakfast was one of the best I've ever had!
We also had our three dogs with us and there were welcome.
Lovely apartment, just a short walk from Kirkcudbright centre. The apartment is very well equipped, with everything you need for a comfortable stay, bed was really comfortable and it was very quiet.
Everything was quality. It was a little more expensive than other hotels we used on this trip, but we most definitely got what we paid for. Highly recommended. Would definitely stay again.
The staff were lovely, food was excellent and plentiful. The hotel was clean and rooms were comfortable. Would certainly use this hotel again if ever was this way again.
Location in Kirkcudbright was excellent and the accommodations perfect for our stay in the area. We explored the whole area and had a great experience.
