| Video Discription | SOUTH WEST COASTAL 300 E10: A tour of the south Scotland market town of Dumfries on my final day driving the SWC300. What a beautiful place! Includes the River Nith, the Old Bridge and Midsteeple. ➡️ See all of my SWC300 Road Trip in Scotland here → https://bit.ly/mwt_swc300 My road trip around the South West Coastal 300 began in Dumfries 6 days ago and will now end with a more in depth tour of the town nicknamed Scotland’s Queen of the South. I’ll start with a room tour at my hotel The Aberdour on Newall Terrace. Dumfries is a pretty market town with the beautiful River Nith weaving through it. I started in the High Street where I visited the historical Midsteeple Buildingand then made my way across to Robert Burns House - the place where Scotland’s National Poet lived and died. Opposite is a well maintained memorial garden with paintings, words from some of his poems and a well kept garden. Across the street is St Michael’s and South Parish Church where I came across the final resting place of Robert Burns - the Burns Mausoleum. In the corner of the graveyard I also found his original burial place. After soaking in a lot of history throughout the morning I crossed the river and walked through a local park alongside the River Nith - the scenery was striking and it was terrific how the blue sky interacted with the old buildings and water - the whole place lit up! I headed back across the river via the Devorgilla Bridge (Old Bridge) which is a 15th century pedestrian bridge perfect for admiring the spires of the old buildings and keeping an eye out for wildlife in the river. This has to be my favourite location in Dumfries. I spotted the Robert Burns Statue standing in front of the imposing St Bride's Anglican Church, passed Dumfries Academy and learnt a little bit about the author of Peter Pan JM Barrie as I admired Moat Brae and the National Centre for Children's Literature and Storytelling. I had no idea that Peter Pan had a connection with this southern Scottish town but now I do! What a perfect day for exploring Dumfries and how incredible to round off my week long road trip around South West Scotland than to enjoy some time in the place where the route begins and ends.
