The South/Borders region
Often referred to as Scotland in miniature with its steep heather covered slopes, its rivers, lochs and sandy beaches and its ancient forests, this area has much to entice the visitor to return again and again. Warmed by the Gulf Stream, the area abounds in a variety of wildlife (RSPB reserve) and the spectacular gardens -Glenwham, Castle Kennedy, the Logan Botanical and Threave Castle Gardens- display a variety of plants normally found in the sub-tropics. The nearby town of Kirkcudbright is famous for its artists' colony and its galleries and exhibitions bring visitors flocking throughout the year.
Dumfries and Galloway / Gatehouse Of Fleet area
