 Welcome to our page of accommodation in
Kirkcudbright! Established as a Royal Burgh in 1455, Kirkcudbright
has always been supported by a busy fishing trade. Behind the
harbour the streets have housed generations of creative artists,
a tradition maintained today by a flourishing colony of painters
and craftworkers. This has led to it being called "The Artists'
Town". The original town was built around the old High Street
where many old town-houses still survive. With its castle, harbour
and mote, it was protected on all sides by the tidal waters of
the River Dee and has prospered over many centuries since. Other
well known features of the town are the pastel coloured houses
and wide streets. |
