In this issue of Community Update, we are pleased to award Kenmuir Arms for its Commitment to Excellence.
The Kenmuir Arms is situated in the beautiful village of New Luce in the Dumfries and Galloway region of Scotland. A cosy local village pub at heart, the Kenmuir Arms has been delighting guests from across the UK for over 100 years and in 2025 it was awarded regional pub of the year by the prestigious National Pub & Bar Awards
The pub strives to provide an unforgettable hospitality experience. Using the best local ingredients across its varied menu. For owner Chris Dougan, the pub’s dedication to local produce is of central importance,
“We use local where possible. From our organic belted Galloway beef, to free range eggs from just next door; our food is unparalleled in the region. We make our sausages, black pudding and haggis in house and bake our own bread and burger buns. You will need to search far and wide to find someone who matches us for hand made products.”
As well as standout dining, the Kenmuir Arms offers an extensive range of drinks, cocktails inspired by the different flavours of Scotland and a focus on regional ales. There’s also three drinks packages, including a discovery pairing that explores wines from lesser known regions and varieties.
More than just a pub the Kenmuir Arms also offers an exquisite, AA 5-Star hotel experience. Three beautifully furnished bedrooms give guests the opportunity to unwind and relax amongst the stunning scenery of the Kenmuir Arms garden and its peaceful river views.
