Kirkcudbright is a lovely town on the estuary which still has a busy and bustling harbour. Stroll through the town and visit the famous Broughton House, once home to E. A. Hornel. Kirkcudbright is known as the ’artists’ town’ having hosted generations of painters, craft makers and artisans – a culture still thriving today. Visitors are attracted throughout the year, drawn by the harbour, the historic high street and the diverse range of annual events and visitor attractions. The popular programme of summer festivities culminates with the spectacular Tattoo, an event not to be missed.

With sailing, swimming, riding, fishing, golf, tennis courts (110 yards away), boat trips and water sports close by, there is sure to be something for everyone.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 9a. It felt like home from home with everything we needed to make the stay comfortable. It was in a perfect location to enjoy Kirkcudbright and everything it has to offer. Everywhere is in comfortable walking distance, making it easy to enjoy the atmosphere of the town. The people in the town are very welcoming and the neighbours to the let hospitable. Thank you to Lyndsey and Phil for the provision of the apartment.

We had a wonderful stay at 9A Church Place. The apartment is very comfortable and had everything we needed - with lovely little touches like the Welcome basket and lots of carefully curated information about the local area. The bed was ever so comfy and it was lovely to sit with a cuppa and look out at the bowling green! The location was really good as it was a very short walk to Tescos and cafes, and the harbour. The owner gave us lots of recommendations for the area (we had a three year old with us) and we loved some of the places she recommended. Lots of places were closed for the winter but there was enough open to make it a great stay.

Great accommodation, very clean, cosy and with everything you might need. The bed was super comfortable!!! Lovely places to eat in Kircudbright… the Auld Alliance was fab and Scran and Swally was excellent and we had a warm welcome at the Masonic Arms pub. Lovely walks from the house. I would definitely recommend 9a Church Place.
