Accommodation

Step inside this lovingly restored 300 year-old self-catering cottage in Kirkcudbright and you’ll experience all the warmth and comfort of a home from home.

Kirkcudbright is known as ‘The Artists Town’ having hosted generations of painters, craftmakers and artisans, a culture still thriving today. The Yellow Door is in a peaceful central location from which you can explore all the amenities of our bustling harbour town. Along with just four other houses, the cottage is tucked into a narrow close off the High Street and benefits from a good degree of privacy.

This is a 300 year old property with its original beams and the room dimensions are therefore commensurate with a cottage of this era.
