[email protected] GENERAL Kirkburn Cottage sits just on the very edge of the small village of Durisdeer. Durisdeer itself is a very pretty collection of estate cottages, some of which are still in the ownership of the Duke of Buccleuch, and features a striking parish church. The current building was erected in the 1720’s to serve the surrounding Queensberry Estate and Drumlanrig Castle, but there has been a church there in some form since medieval times, and it houses a mausoleum built for the first Duke of Queensberry. Local amenities are available in nearby Thornhill, which has a range of boutique shops, hotels and restaurants as well as solicitors, bank, library, health centre and the renowned Wallace Hall Academy secondary school. Further south, the regional capital of Dumfries provides a wider range of schools, shops, retail outlets, and other services including a major hospital with A&E and various outpatient departments. Also in Dumfries there is the Crichton Campus (Universities of Glasgow and The West of Scotland), providing further and higher education courses, as well as a sports and leisure facilities.
