Description by the author

Dumfries is a city in the South of Scotland located about 140 kilometers west of Newcastle upon Tyne. The city has a cozy center with a few old streets where medieval buildings are the rule rather than the exception. This ensures that walking through Dumfries is definitely worth it and with sights such as the Devorgilla Bridge, the Midsteeple and the Robert Burns House, a trip to this beautiful location will not be forgotten!
