About Crichton Central
Criffel View
Crichton Central is located at Criffel View within the beautiful Crichton Estate, an 85 acre parkland estate in Dumfries. The historic sandstone building underwent an extensive refurbishment programme in 2020/21 and has been transformed into a modern, accessible café, lounge and co-working space.
The functional and inspiring co-working space, meeting rooms and event spaces opened in 2021 and are also available to hire within Crichton Central and in our other venues.
