With some awesome road trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore all that Cumnock, 30 miles away, has to offer. Dumfries House, New Cumnock Community Open-Air Swimming Pool and New Cumnock Golf Club alone justify the drive. Kirkcudbright is another popular destination. It’s 30 miles away and home to an array of awesome things to do. MacLellan’s Castle, Broughton House and Tolbooth are just the start.
