It states on the website Newton Stewart, Dumfries and Galloway
The town of Newton Stewart, known as “The gateway to the Galloway hills”, is beautifully situated on the banks of the River Cree. One can’t help but be seduced by the sprawling heather-covered hills and charming stone bridge spanning the river. The town is particularly popular with mountain bikers searching for scenic and exhilarating trails to test their skills.
If your interests are more sedate, then try the walk through Galloway House Gardens which leads you through green glades and down to the beach. And for refreshment? The Riverbank restaurant provides a very satisfying coffee and scone.
