Idyllic rural surroundings, a friendly welcome and waters that cater for every type of fishing - Galloway offers all of this and more!

Scotland's 'forgotten corner' provides superb river fishing for salmon, trout and sea trout while its still waters support a variety of coarse species including pike, perch, carp, roach, tench and bream.

Combine this with numerous lochs holding wild and stocked trout as well as a coast that offers fantastic sea fishing from shore or boat, Galloway is truly an angler's paradise.
