Glenluce

Ireland

Glenluce lies along the A75 in Dumfries and Galloway, serving ferry traffic between Stranraer and the Scottish mainland. The village sits in a sheltered glen with mild weather despite its Atlantic exposure. Local routes connect to Dunragit and Castle Kennedy, whilst the A75 continues east to the M74 at Gretna. The ruins of a 12th-century Cistercian abbey, once amongst Scotland's wealthiest religious houses, stand at the village's heart.
