For Two of You
Walks before breakfast, stargazing after dinner, and a corner of Scotland that hasn't been overrun yet. Short breaks built around quiet.
See Scottish BreaksSelf-Catering Holidays In Dumfries & Galloway at Three Lochs
Three self-catering holiday homes. Three lochs. 1,200 acres of countryside and a park full of things to see and do.
Some breaks need an itinerary. Ours doesn’t.
We’ll set you up in a self-catering holiday home in the woods between three lochs, hand you the keys, and point you at the heated pool, the horse paddock, the fishing pegs, the kayaks and the kids’ play barn. The rest is up to you.
Some guests don’t leave their self-catering holiday home until day three. Others wear the place out before the kettle’s cooled. Both are good holidays.
Pick Your Three Lochs
For the Whole Family
Pool in the morning, ponies in the afternoon, fish-and-chips at the bar — and a holiday home to come back to when everyone's worn out.

For You and the Dog
1,200 acres of woodland to explore, three lochs to splash in, and a pub at the end of the loop where wet paws are part of the welcome.

Nine Reasons You Won’t Need the Car Keys
All on-site. None of the half-hour-each-way driving that ruins a day. (And one of them, since 2025, is a giant inflatable obstacle course on the loch.)
South West Scotland's Quietest Quarter
Three Lochs sits inside a thousand-and-a-bit acres of wooded countryside near Newton Stewart, deep in Wigtownshire. The drive’s easy from Glasgow, Carlisle and the Cairnryan ferry, but the postcards stop at Loch Lomond — most of the people up here live here.
Beyond the gates: Galloway Forest Park, the Machars peninsula, the village book town of Wigtown, and the long, empty Solway coast.
