The Galloway Arms Hotel is a heritage listed, quality 10 bedroom hotel lying midway between the town centres of Castle Douglas and Dumfries. These towns are 18 miles apart, so that Crocketford over the years became fondly referred to as 'The Nine Mile Bar'. We are a family owned and managed heritage hotel in the heart of South West Scotland, benefiting from a rural location which is also central.
The Galloway Arms has been serving the needs of weary travellers and visitors to the area for more than two hundred years and pride ourselves on delivering service built upon years of tradition and experience. Relax and unwind in the Nine Mile Lounge Bar with one of our premium malt whiskies or choose from our continually growing gin collection.

Report
The Galloway Arms Hotel is owned by Pat Watson and her daughter Paula and son in law Stuart. I have worked in the hospitality industry for over four decades and re-opened the Galloway Arms with my late husband James Watson (Noky) in 1996. I was born and raised in Crocketford and I was delighted to return to the village where I feel truly at home.
History
Report
The Buchanites founded Crocketford village in 1787. This religious sect comprised of adherents of Elizabeth Buchan (1738-91), who believed she was the woman referred to in Revelations 12. Elizabeth Buchan managed to persuade others that she had heavenly powers, and they joined her to become the original settlers in Crocketford.
