Lochmaben is a small royal burgh in Annandale, sitting among a cluster of lochs between Dumfries and Lockerbie.

The town is associated with Robert the Bruce, whose family held the lordship of Annandale - the ruins of Lochmaben Castle stand on a promontory on the Castle Loch south of the town.

The Castle Loch is a nature reserve and home to the vendace, one of Britain's rarest freshwater fish, found naturally in only a handful of locations.

Lochmaben has a compact centre with a town hall, local shops and a quiet residential character and sits on the A709 between Dumfries and Lockerbie.

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.
