Features and description
We are delighted to bring to the market a substantial commercial premises extending to approximately 160m² over two floors, in a prime trading position close to the town centre and within easy walking distance of all local amenities. At present the premises are used as an office and shop for Wigtown Book Festival, although they are equally well suited to a variety of uses.
Wigtown was officially designated as Scotland’s National Book Town in 1998 and is home to a wide range of book shops. The annual Wigtown Book Festival takes place over 10 days and offers more than 200 events for adults, children and young people including literature, music, film, theatre, arts and crafts. The Machars Peninsula has stunning coastal walks, harbours and sandy beaches. The area is steeped in history and the landscape is a haven for birdwatchers. The Mull of Galloway is Scotland’s most southerly point with amazing views, lighthouse and visitor’s centre. The Galloway Forest Park, is also located nearby, one of the most attractive and peaceful areas of South West Scotland with its rugged and beautiful scenery and quiet roads. The forest park is an ideal centre for a range of outdoor activities including walking, mountain biking, world famous 7 stanes cycling routes, fishing and just enjoying the countryside in general. Recently the park has achieved recognition as being one of the best places to observe the night sky at its best, with no light pollution for miles, and has been awarded the title of a Dark Sky Park.
