Did you know ... using the Median Centre by Latitude-Longitude method of calculating the centre of Britain, 1 mile north of Moffat is the CENTRE of Britain ! Moffat is Scotland's first "Walkers Are Welcome" Town and has recently launched seven newly way-marked walk routes, as well hosting an annual Walking Festival. The date for the 2013 Moffat Ramblers' Walking Festival has been set for 4th - 6th October 2013.
There are a whole host of great places to stay, to suit all pockets, superb places to eat including a number of award-winning restaurants as well as homely cafes. Moffat is a great base to discover the Borders and Dumfries & Galloway and is only 50 miles from Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Read Paul Colvin's poem "A Journey Down to Moffat", written in 2011.
