Auchencairn is an attractive village of whitewashed stone cottages, mainly dating from the early 17th century. It is located on the heritage coastline of the Solway Estuary, a National Scenic Area of unspoiled hills, cliffs, islands, bays and beaches known locally as the Scottish Riviera.

The village is on the A711 coast road from Dalbeattie to Kirkcudbright and provides a quiet and pretty base for exploring all that the area has to offer walkers, cyclists and wildlife. Auchencairn enjoys a particularly mild climate due to its coastal position and there is a lively and welcoming community that takes pride in the appearance and history of the village, several craft and    specialist businesses operate successfully here.

A wider range of professional services can be found in the nearby towns of Dalbeattie, Castle Douglas and Kirkcudbright.
