Annan & WhiskyAnnan has no Distilleries - at present - Annandale (2 miles) is being rebuilt and hopes to be distilling again in 2013.
There's a Whisky Shop in Dumfries - TB Watson (aka Drambusters) (15 miles). Avoid the tourist trap of Gretna Green (9 miles), which does sell Whisky, but at extortionate prices. Nearest current Distillery: Bladnoch (60 miles). |

Annan (ANN) rail station has level access to both platforms (Platform 1 from Station Road off St John's Road, Platform 2 from path off Elm Road) with fairly regular trains to Glasgow & Kilmarnock, a few more (especially on Saturdays) to Carlisle - some of which go on to Newcastle - except on Sundays when the service is awful - first train 1315 - and not many more - only two each way to Glasgow all day!
