The village of Carsphairn is
situated in South West Scotland on the A713 between Ayr and Castle Douglas (25
miles to each) and is on the edge of the Galloway Forest Park so is ideal for
walking, cycling, fishing and bird watching.
Carsphairn is close to the
Southern Upland Way and the Red Kite Trail and is on the Galloway Tourist Route
to Ayr from Gretna and the Burn’s Trail, which follows many places frequented
by Robert Burns and runs from Dumfries to Ayr. From Carsphairn it is possible to
visit Edinburgh, Glasgow or the Isle of Arran for a day trip.
In the village itself there is a
Post Office/Tea- room/General Store and a Heritage Centre with local history
information. In both you will find brochures
on the many places of local interest as well as transport information and local
maps.
Behind the village there is an
excellent river for trout fishing, in season. This is by private agreement with
the landowner. Permits are available
from the Post Office in the village for fishing at other areas close by.
