New Luce

New Luce is a quiet picturesque village in the Scottish unitary council area of Dumfries and Galloway. It has a shop, pub (Kenmuir Arms) and two bridges. In the summer it has a popular gala day. The coast to coast walk, the Southern Upland Way, passes close to the village. New Luce is surrounded by good walking countryside and there are a number of excellent golf courses nearby. The Galloway Dark Sky project is only a few miles away. The Covenanter Alexander Peden spent time preaching in the village.
