Newton Stewart: 16.6 miles, Glasgow Airport: 98 miles, Edinburgh Airport: 132 miles Directions From Dumfries, head west on the A75 to Newton Stewart. From the roundabout at Newton Stewart, follow directions to Wigtown (A714). Continue for approximately 5 miles and before reaching Wigtown take the road on the right hand side which is signposted to Port William/Garlieston and Whithorn. Continue south along the A746 and continue to the B7004. Turn right at Garlieston into the village of Sorbie and continue along the B7052 turning left into Reiffer Park Road. Continue along this road for 1 mile and Reiffer Park House will be on the right hand side. Access to private driveway. Situation Reiffer Park occupies a beautiful rural position surrounded by carefully tended gardens which include a wide variety of mature trees and shrubs. The surrounding grounds encompass paddocks and numerous outbuildings and extend to approximately 15 acres. Although occupying a prime rural position, the historic and picturesque town of Wigtown is easily commutable while a wide range of additional professional services, supermarkets and restaurants can be found in Newton Stewart. The southwest of Scotland is well known for its livestock farming, magnificent hills, coastline and the mild gulf stream climate. Wigtown is a pretty, traditional market town and is known worldwide as Scotland’s National Book Town, a designation that reflects its dozen or so quality bookshops and annual literary festival. Founded in 1999, the ten day book festival is now one of the UK’s best loved literary events. As well as offering a good range of local shopping and professional services, Wigtown and nearby Newton Stewart are regarded as natural bases from which to explore the Galloway Forest Park which covers a vast and sparsely populated area stretching north east. The wild landscape and extensive woodland and unspoilt coastline provide many opportunities for outdoor pursuits. Country sports in the area include fishing and stalking as well as pheasant and partridge shooting on surrounding estates. There are eight good local golf courses to choose from. The coastline offers sailing and sea fishing and there are safe anchorages at Port William and the Isle of Whithorn. The A75 provides excellent road links and there are railway stations at Stranraer and Dumfries. Description Reiffer Park House is an historic, Category B Listed Georgian country house which has been renovated and extended by the current owners and now offers excellently presented, updated accommodation along with a wealth of traditional features. The house is entered through a vestibule with mosaic tiled floor which leads to the reception hallway with hardwood flooring. The drawing room is a wonderfully elegant space with 12 pane sash and case windows overlooking beautifully tended surrounding gardens; it has a stone fireplace and open fire at its focal point. There is a formal dining room and a sitting room, again with feature fireplace and log burner. Also on the ground floor is a home office / study which could be utilised for a variety of purposes, and a superb open plan dining sized kitchen formed by an extension built in 2006. It has a fine range of Alno base and wall mounted units with an island unit, Corian work tops and a four oven cream Aga at its heart. Off the utility room is a cloakroom/wc, boot room and boiler room. The first floor is home to four well proportioned double sized bedrooms all with delightful views over the surrounding gardens and countryside beyond, with the master bedroom having a dressing room and en suite bathroom. There is an additional bathroom on the first floor and an attic room plus floored roof space which provide excellent storage. Gardens The gardens are a credit to the current owners with immaculate front gardens with an avenue of silver birch trees with a walled and fenced surround. To the side of the garden is an arboretum with a wide variety of mature trees and shrubs including monkey puzzle trees and rhododendrons. To the west of Reiffer Park House there is an access gate leading to the surrounding fields with grazing. The outbuildings are located mainly to the north of the property and include a former garage, polytunnel, and a barn/stables with two loose boxes and feed room.

  • Whithorn Conservation Area Character Appraisal
    Dumfries and Galloway Council LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2 Whithorn Conservation Area Character Appraisal Draft Supplementary Guidance - January 2018 draft www.dumgal.gov.uk draft This conservation area character appraisal was first adopted as supplementary planning guidance to the Wigtown Local Plan. That plan has been replaced by the Local Development Plan (LDP) which is reviewed every 5 years. The conservation area character appraisal is considered by the Council to remain relevant and so will be readopted as Supplementary Guidance to LDP2. Policy HE2: Conservation Areas ties the conservation area character appraisal to LDP2. The policy reinforces the importance and value of conservation area character appraisal as the policy states that “The Council will support development proposals within or adjacent to a conservation area that preserves or enhances the character and appearance of the area and is consistent with any relevant conservation area appraisal and management plan.” draft Whithorn Conservation Area Appraisal Contents Whithorn Conservation Area Character Appraisal .......................................... 3 Introduction ..................................................................................................... 3 Background ...........................................................................................................................3 The Conservation Area .........................................................................................................3 The Character Appraisal .......................................................................................................3

  • Strategic Transport Projects Review Report 1 – Review of Current and Future Network Performance
    Transport Scotland Strategic Transport Projects Review Report 1 – Review of Current and Future Network Performance 7.16 Corridor 16: Stranraer to North West England and beyond 7.16.1 Setting the Context Corridor 16 extends from Stranraer across to the northwest of England, approximately 157 kilometres in length The corridor follows a largely east-west alignment, serving the regional centre of Dumfries and the settlements of Newton Stewart, Castle Douglas, Annan and Gretna, and providing links to Carlisle across the border and beyond. The corridor is largely rural with small settlements. The extent of the corridor and the location of the main settlements are shown in Figure 7.16.1. The corridor has a total population 106,500699, which is forecast to remain unchanged between 2005 and 2022699. At the same time, the number of households in the area is forecast to increase by approximately 4,000, a rise of eight per cent699. Much of the pressure for housing development is concentrated in the larger towns such as Dumfries, Stranraer and Annan which also act as employment and service centres700. The traditional agriculture and manufacturing sectors are facing decline and tourism is predicted to play an important role in the future local economy. Settlements which are close to the A74 (M) benefit from being able to access wider markets which could generate business employment opportunities. The ports of Cairnryan and Stranraer provide frequent and heavily used ferry services between Scotland and Northern Ireland. Stena Line, who currently use the port of Stranraer, are progressing with plans for a new ferry port development on Loch Ryan.
