Experience a little Scottish splendour at this beautiful collage on the stunning Penninghame Estate – just 3.5 miles outside Newton Stewart. Sleeping 10 people across five bedrooms, it’s perfect for large families or groups looking for a stylish retreat where they can celebrate a special occasion in Dumfries and Galloway. Wake up and head into Newton Stewart (3.5 miles) to browse its independent shops and take a stroll along the River Cree. Or spend a morning spotting red deer in Galloway Forest Park (6 miles). Further afield, explore the 15th century Cardoness Castle (19 miles) – the views across Fleet Bay from its striking medieval tower are outstanding. Head into Gatehouse of Fleet (22 miles) to browse the art galleries and stop off for lunch in the 18th-century Mill on the Fleet or spend some quality time browsing the amazing bookstores in the ‘book town’ of Wigtown (11 miles).
Step inside and you’ll find sophisticated space with warm wood floors, large glass windows and elegant furnishings. Head to the traditional kitchen to cook up a storm and get everyone together to eat at the long table in the dining room. Afterwards, make your way to the sitting room to lose yourself in a good book, or head up to the first-floor landing to catch up on your favourite TV shows in the sitting area. There are five beautiful bedrooms - a double and a twin on the ground floor, and a double and two twins on the first floor. There’s a handy shower room on the ground floor and a family bathroom with a shower over the bath on the first floor.
Fire up the charcoal BBQ and host a fun al fresco dinner on the patio. Afterwards, take a stroll through the grounds of the Penninghame Estate and then retire to the fire pit to toast marshmallows. Private parking is available for three cars.
