Company information
On behalf of our entire team, I am delighted to welcome you to our beautiful country estate steeped in Scottish Heritage. We are thrilled to have you here and are committed to making your stay as enjoyable and relaxing as possible.
About Your Stay:
Life on the estate is very peaceful but we do have quite a variety of wildlife visiting. Swallows, pheasants, partridge, rabbits, ducks, red squirrels, kite’s woodpeckers, owls, deer and the otters are regular visitors by the riverbank.
Our estate offers a perfect blend of comfort, luxury, and tranquility amidst stunning natural surroundings. Whether you’re here to explore the picturesque landscapes, indulge in our exceptional amenities, or simply unwind in the peaceful atmosphere, we have something for everyone.
Our Commitment to You:
Our lodges and apartments cater for almost every need but if there is anything else that we can help you with that will make your holiday more memorable, then please feel free to ask. We love to share our recommendations with our guests.
The team work extremely hard to keep everything the way we know our guests like it, but if something is not to your satisfaction, feel free to bring it to our attention so we can sort it for you. We are on the phone 24/7 for anything you may need - it’s far easier to phone than to hunt us down on the estate!
Feel free to explore our grounds, take advantage of our facilities, and indulge in the various activities we offer – from hiking and biking to enjoying our wood-fired hot tub or cooking school experiences.
Once again, welcome to the estate! We hope you create beautiful memories during your stay.

Nestled in the heart of the Galloway countryside, Penninghame Estate offers a peaceful and scenic retreat on the edge of the Galloway Forest Park.

Despite the tranquil surroundings, the vibrant market town of Newton Stewart is just a five-minute drive away, offering independent shops, cafés, and restaurants, plus access to outdoor adventure centres, golf courses, and local attractions.
