Both of our flats at The Smiddy come equipped with basic amenities such as soaps, towels and toilet roll in the bathrooms. Our kitchens also include cooking essentials such as pots, pans, and dishes to serve food and drink. Everything you need to get settled in on your first night, with the Co-op supermarket less than a five minute walk up the road. Book with us directly by emailing [email protected] 😁.
After the longest day on June 20th, slowly but surely southern Scotland will begin to gain back the darkness that is required at night to see the stars. The Smiddy is a short drive from The Galloway Forest Park, one of the best places in the country to observe the cosmos. So, your day does not have to be over after exploring what the town has to offer! Layer up, make a hot chocolate and head out to enjoy our skies.
Wigtown is best known for being Scotland's National Book Town.
With so many shops to explore, it's the perfect opportunity to set
aside a weekend, grab a map of the town from one of the
booksellers and start exploring. Stay with us at The Smiddy
Accommodation, and relax with a book in one of our cosy living
areas! Email [email protected] to reserve your stay
directly. We cannot wait to welcome you 📚🥰.

If you’re a keen walker, our accommodation at The Smiddy is a perfect base for you to enjoy many well known trails and hikes within Wigtownshire. One is even visible from the window of the double bedrooms, and that is Cairnsmore of Fleet! It’s considered a challenging route, but the views at the top are more than worth it. If you’re looking for a more leisurely path, the Kirroughtree Visitor Centre has a number of different walks for all abilities. Book with us now directly at [email protected] 📧!
Among the many tourist attractions near our accommodation is Bladnoch Distillery. The scenic walk to the neighbouring town takes less than half an hour, with the opportunity to be given a guided tour through the estate. Book in advance on their website, and get a taste of the local whisky! 🥃
The Smiddy is close to areas in town that are especially good for viewing the night sky. Although the light nights make seeing all of the stars a challenge at the moment, we are entering into the season for Noctilucent Clouds. This photo was taken on Harbour Road, just minutes away from the accommodation. See how they glow! Book with us directly by contacting [email protected] for a chance to experience the South West skies.
When you book to stay with us during the summer, you are in for a treat with the gorgeous light nights. This was taken on a calm evening over the Wigtown Harbour, only half a mile from The Smiddy Accommodation. Email [email protected] to enquire about availability!

Thank you to our recent guests for this lovely review. We are so delighted you enjoyed your stay. Haste ye back.
"We stayed at Anne’s place for two nights and absolutely loved it. The property is a converted blacksmith’s forge (a wonderful job done) and it is cosy and home-y, with plenty of amenities alongside some games/jigsaws (which are always welcome in our books!). The property is located just off Wigtown centre so access to the bookshops takes literally 2 minutes. Anne was a great host and left the place spotless, gave us clear instructions on how to check in etc, and was quick to respond. 5 stars all round, cannot recommend enough!"
