SRUC

Living in Dumfries

Our Barony campus is set within a working 260 hectare estate, situated in the rolling landscape of Dumfries and Galloway in South West Scotland. The campus is also home to the Scottish dairy technology centre and the Scottish Forestry Technology Centre.

Accommodation options

SRUC Barony, Dumfries has two hostels each offering 16 single study bedrooms. Each hostel has central facilities including tea and coffee making, fridge, microwave and television. Shower rooms are communal.

Kirkmichael House is a converted 18th century manor house. On the upper floors there are 27 bedrooms, offering both twin and single accommodation, mostly en-suite.

All accommodation at Barony Campus is currently on a catered arrangement as there are no facilities suitable for cooking yourself.

There are residential staff available to deal with any issues that arise in halls outside of office hours.
