If you’re considering taking your loved ones away to experience a beautiful part of Scotland for the very fisrt time, then you should consider staying in South Scotland. The Scottish Borders and Dumfries and Galloway are stunning areas home to gorgeous bays and beaches, bustling harbours and historic market towns, and visiting these on a self-catering break is a wonderful way to explore these areas.
There are plenty of holiday cottages dotted around the south of Scotland that make a great base for your break. If you’re travelling with your partner, you might want to rent a quaint cottage with character that you can retreat back to in the evenings to snuggle by the fire. Or you might be wanting to bring your dog along, in which case there are plenty of pet-friendly properties waiting for you and the pet pooch.

Try the gentle south of Scotland as a first holiday adventure

South Scotland is home to coastal walking paths including the Southern Upland Way, Britain’s first coast to coast long distance footpath, fascinating castles such as Caerlaverock Castle nearby to Dumfries, and vibrant towns like the quayside of Eyemouth. If you’re looking to discover a part of Scotland that isn’t as well known as the Highlands but is just as beautiful, then it might be a great idea for you and your nearest and dearest to explore South Scotland as you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Find a good quality holiday home to rent and you'll be as happy as a lark for a week

Self-catering holiday accommodation in Scotland ranges from bungalows on the edge of a loch to apartments and houses overlooking the sea in a friendly village. Wherever you choose for your holiday, it won’t take long before you settle in and feel like your accommodation is a second home. You can shop for groceries in a local farmer’s market or a village shop, cook your favourite meals from back home to enjoy in the dining room of your cottage and fall asleep in a comfortable bed, waking up whenever you like. Whether you always take this kind of holiday or if you’re new to self-catering breaks, the south of Scotland is an excellent choice for those looking for a peaceful time in a picturesque area.
