Stay in the Artist’s Town

We loved overlooking the Harbour Square and great view over the River. Kirkcudbright is a pretty town with lots to see and do in the town and surrounding countryside. Pete is a thoughtful host and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We had a lovely stay in this quirky little apartment. The kitchen lets it down a bit, but the bedroom is cosy and the living/dining room is a delight. It is bright and airy with nice artistic touches and great views. The location is excellent - right in the heart of a beautiful little town.

Hadn't realised the bathroom was on the first floor and the rest of the flat on the second floor. We are mature residents so the stairs were slightly challenging. Otherwise a really good little home from home, in a great location. Pete was very helpfull.

Review Corbie Neist

Charming cottage style flat well decorated with interesting local art and great views out to the harbour and castle. TV a bit tricky to set up for local news and difficult to remove subtitles on bbc iPlayer. Bathroom a bit cold at times and not on same floor as bedroom and lounge. In need of some painting to upgrade. Otherwise very convenient for all amenities.

About the host

Hosted by Pete Machell

Host profile image
Hi, I am Pete.
I have lived in Kirkcudbright for nearly 20 years, but currently live in the Galloway Forest Park area to the north, about 12 miles away.

Why they chose this property

I bought this flat over 20 years ago when I first met my partner who lived in Kirkcudbright. I bought it to live in myself, but have never needed to. I started to host AirBnb and VRBO in June 2022, after very extensive renovations. There is a dedicated area to park bicycles safely in the lobby.

What makes this property unique

The Living Room looks out over the Harbour to the North, and over to the Churchyard to the south, and is literally steps away from Butchers, Bakers, Cafes, Restaurants, Museums, Art Galleries, Designer clothes shops, Book shop. The Moat Brae across the road offers a lovely outdoor space underneath the Rookery trees, looking out over the river and harbour. Kirkcudbright is always a very active town, with Art Tours, A Cookery School, a Gin Distillery, a Planetarium, a Tattoo, Summer festivities, Arts & Crafts Trail, Jazz parade, Cycling events, Marathon running, and more. Kirkcudbright is a great centre for walking, cycling, wildlife, historic sites and touring.
