The Anchor Hotel is located in the heart of the beautiful waterside village of Kippford. South-West Scotland is a paradise of perfect destinations and Kippford is a true gem amongst them. The village is nestled on the banks of the River Urr as it makes its final journey into the Solway estuary. On a clear day there are views across the estuary to the spectacular peaks of The Lake District and nearer at hand are Rough Island and Hestan.
Popular with locals and tourist alike, The Anchor is well-known for a friendly welcome and great food and drink. With six bedrooms providing comfortable bed and breakfast accommodation, The Anchor is the ideal location for anyone wanting to spend some time in one of Scotland's most attractive areas. Call in for a pint of local real ale from the micro-brewery in Castle Douglas, or come for a meal from our team of chefs. Using local produce, we can offer you a real taste of the area.
The area has a wealth of activities on offer, from golf and mountain-biking to bird-watching and rambling, as well as water-based activities and local attractions.
