Moniaive is a small village at the head of the Cairn Valley in the hills of northern Galloway, where three glens meet at a mercat cross.

The village has an artistic and alternative character - the Moniaive Festival of music and arts draws visitors each summer and the village has attracted a community of creative residents.

James Renwick, the last Covenanting martyr, was born near Moniaive in 1662 and a monument on the hillside above the village marks his birthplace.

Moniaive is one of the most remote villages in Dumfries and Galloway, reached by single-track roads through beautiful and empty hill country.

Dumfries and Galloway is the most south-westerly council area in Scotland, stretching from the English border at Gretna to the Mull of Galloway - the southernmost point in Scotland - and from the Solway Firth coast inland to the hills of the Southern Uplands.

Dumfries is the largest town and administrative centre, a handsome red sandstone burgh on the River Nith where Robert Burns spent the last years of his life and is buried in St Michael's Kirkyard.

The region divides naturally into three historic areas: Dumfriesshire to the east, Kirkcudbrightshire (the Stewartry) in the centre and Wigtownshire to the west - each with its own character, landscape and loyalties.

The Galloway coast and countryside have a mild climate influenced by the Gulf Stream, fertile farmland, dark-sky reserves and a string of small harbour towns that attract artists, writers and visitors drawn to the quiet and the landscape.

Despite its size, the region is one of the most sparsely populated in Scotland - a place where community is strong, the pace is slower and the landscape ranges from river valleys and rolling farmland to wild moorland and rocky coastline.
