Castle Douglas is a thriving Galloway market town, lying approximately 18 miles south-west of Dumfries and enjoying an enviable range of shops and other facilities in a town now promoted as a “Food Town” with an annual food festival. The town also has a wide range of facilities including excellent primary and secondary schools, modern health centre, veterinary practices, supermarkets, library, swimming pool, 9-hole golf course, bowling green, tennis & squash courts and a thriving community run theatre & cinema, The Fullarton.

The Dumfries and Galloway Region is renowned for its beautiful countryside with rolling pastures broken by stone dykes and amenity woodland with a rugged coastline. Benefiting from the Gulf Stream, the general climate is mild and there are consequently many beautiful gardens nearby including the National Trust Gardens at Threave. The area has a wide range of sport and outdoor activities with opportunities to take in shooting, fishing on river, loch or sea, golf, sailing, and an extensive range of walks and cycling routes
