Southern Scotland

Dramatic coastline, dense forests and hidden castles: take a short break in Southern Scotland and adventure awaits! Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, family holiday or weekend away with friends, we have the perfect holiday cottage in Southern Scotland for you! 

Galloway Forest Park to the west was the UK’s first designated Dark Sky Park, making it perfect for stargazing. By day, there’s plenty to do, with cycling and walking routes, kayaking and climbing. 

For those looking for a slightly more relaxed stay in Southern Scotland, we recommend a trip to one of the many castles. How about the unusual triangular Caerlaverock Castle near Dumfries? History buffs will love an afternoon pottering around the various curiosities hidden away at Sir Walter Scott’s home, Abbotsford near Melrose.

The Southern Scotland coastline is as beautiful as you will find anywhere in the world but bring a wet suit if you fancy venturing into the surf at any time of year!
