GUEST TESTIMONIAL:
Penninghame is a hidden jewel nestled into the southwest corner of Scotland - a stunningly beautiful and often overlooked region whose temperate climate is cocooned by the Gulf Stream. Nestled into that environment sits an estate whose beautiful grounds abut the River Cree. The remarkably beautiful and well maintained buildings and grounds, including a magnificent walled garden, offer a tranquil respite from a day’s hiking, biking, fishing or relaxing in Dumfries and Galloway’s peerless countryside and coastline. And when you return to Penninghame you will be met by hosts whose peerless hospitality, friendliness and attention to detail will complete your day. Oct 2021
