A Dram Good Day with Sam Heughan! 🥃 📚

A brilliant Sunday afternoon at The
Wigtown Book Festival this weekend with none other than Sam Heughan! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

We were proud to sponsor Sam’s event at this year’s festival which as we're sure everyone who attended will agree, was utterly fantastic!

It was fascinating to hear Sam talk about his journey and experiences alongside stories from around the world, with plenty of Scottish inspiration along the way and his eventual 'coming home' to Galloway Distillery and his exploration of Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🥾

But naturally, we couldn’t leave it there…

We’re already looking forward to bringing a little taste of Sam’s book, 'The Cocktail Diaries' back to Dumfries, with plans to introduce some of Sam’s cocktails to our menus featuring Sassenach spirits very soon… 🥃🍸

A huge thank you to the team at Wigtown Book Festival for another fantastic event and for continuing to bring such brilliant atmosphere and authors to Dumfries & Galloway 👏

We’re already looking forward to next year and celebrating 30 Years of the festival 🥂 📚

🇺🇸 Across the Atlantic, Back to Dumfries 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

One of the very best parts of hospitality is the people you meet along the way and it was an absolute pleasure to welcome our friend Russ back to The Cairndale once again❤️

Russ is 90 years young and has now made the journey across the Atlantic from America to Dumfries several times, travelling solo each time.

His first visit began with a desire to trace his family ancestry back to Dumfries. But somewhere along the way, Scotland became much more than a place to research his family history....it became somewhere he simply loves coming back to.

I asked Russ during this visit whether there was anywhere else in the world he still wanted to travel to.

His answer was simple: “No. Just Scotland.”

And he means it! He’s already talking about his next trip across the pond, when he hopes to explore some of the Scottish islands.

Russ has become a familiar face to many of us at The Cairndale, and I know plenty of guests who have crossed paths with him during his stays have enjoyed his stories and company just as much as we have.

A special mention, too, has to go to Mark at Dumfries Tours , who always takes such great care of Russ on his visits. Mark welcomes many guests from America and around the world who come to Dumfries & Galloway hoping to discover more about their Scottish roots and I know the personal care he gives them makes their trips all the more memorable.

At 90 years young, travelling solo across the Atlantic and still planning the next Scottish adventure, is something we can all aspire to!

It was a pleasure to see you again, Russ.

Safe travels home, and we’ll look forward to welcoming you back to Dumfries for adventure number five! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️
