Douglas Arms Hotel by Paymán Club

History

Douglas Arms Hotel is over 200 years old and is a former coaching inn.

Built into the wall is a stone often put on a lintel bearing the name of the man and his wife who built the house.

The town’s founder, William Douglas most probably stayed here before he built his residence at Kelton.

On the King Street wall of the hotel is a milestone in tablet form, rescued from a ditch by a former provost, Dr. T. M Donald, which shows mileages to a few destinations such as Dumfries, Carlisle, London, Edinburgh, and Glasgow.
