Golf
With over 30 courses to choose from there are great options for those who want to play a round in the region.
From courses designed by golfing luminaries like Mackenzie Ross (Southerness) or James Baird (Stranraer) to the course at Thornhill where local lad Andrew Coulthard perfected his swing golfers will be spoilt for choice.
The region is also packed with driving ranges and there are a host of golf professionals on hand to help iron out the kinks in your game.
Whether you prefer to play on parkland, hilltop, moorland or links there’s a course to suit your needs. Dumfries and Galloway is one of golf’s best kept secrets and home to some of the best courses you’ve never heard of.
Why not come and see for yourself?
