Grand Dining Room

This long and elegant room, with its authentic wood-panelling, is allegedly where the idea of the Howff Club was first conceived in 1889. Since then it has served many purposes including, most recently, the landlady’s apartment. On stripping out the partition walls, the majesty of this ‘lost’ room finally revealed itself and the idea of a private meeting and dining room was born.

Most of the original features, including the fireplace, wooden panelling and vaulted ceiling, have been retained and restored. Now furnished with locally sourced period antiques and a grand dining table made by local designer and furniture maker, Ian Cameron-Smith, The Globe’s Grand Dining Room is the ideal location for social gatherings and business meetings. You’ll find it perfectly located in the centre of Dumfries with ample parking.
