Galloway is a relatively undiscovered corner of Scotland, yet it has some of the most spectacular scenery from the majestic, often snow-capped Galloway hills to the most amazing and rugged coastline.

We also have beautiful sandy beaches, the largest forest park in Britain, the largest Local Nature Reserve in the UK and a wealth of charming, small towns, each with their own distinctive character and fascinating history.

The former County Town of Wigtown is now Scotland's National Book Town and each year in late September, early October, Wigtown plays host to well known authors, broadcasters and celebrities for the annual Literary Festival.

The centrepiece building, just a stone's throw away from the Wigtown Ploughman Hotel, is The County Buildings, a stunning example of gothic architecture dominating the northern end of the town square. Discover Galloway for yourself from your base at The Ploughman.
