Lives in Dumfries, Scotland
HI I'm William, I've lived in Dumfries for 25 years now and wouldn't move to anywhere else in Scotland. The area has so much to offer travellers and my property Number 3 @ Victoria is the perfect base in the regional capital Dumfries to explore beautiful Dumfries and Galloway. I have renovated Number 3 @ Victoria which has been a labour of love and has taken over 6 months to complete. I'm excited to now share Number 3 @ Victoria with travellers. I live nearby so if there are any issues which is unlikely I am on hand to resolve these quickly.
