The Clachan has a reputation for excellent food, cosy, well-equipped bedrooms and a welcoming atmosphere.
It is the Local CAMRA Dumfries & Stewartry Branch Pub of the Year 2019.
The menu is varied with excellent daily specials and the kitchen makes use of local produce including organic lamb and venison. The pub has an attractive traditional main bar, a relaxing lounge bar and a separate restaurant - both bars have wonderfully warming open log fires in winter. A handy stop for walkers on the Southern Upland Way.
There is a limited daytime bus service to Castle Douglas from Monday to Saturday. Twice a day there is a connecting service to Ayr via Dalmellington. There is no bus service on Sunday.
Winter opening hours may vary particularly on Mondays.
