Hidden within the tranquil landscapes of South West Scotland, Contained Bliss offers four beautiful cabin getaways designed for couples seeking calm, comfort and connection with nature. Each cabin has its own character and setting — from forest-edge retreats to hillside hideaways — but all share a love of outdoor living. Expect a sense of seclusion, the luxury of simplicity and that special feeling of being immersed in the Scottish countryside. Every cabin comes with a double bed, ensuite bathroom, covered alfresco dining area, and a Nordic wood-fired tub for two — perfect for stargazing under the vast, dark skies. Fire up the outdoor log burner, settle into your chairs with a dram, and let the quiet work its magic.
Set high at the top of the farm, Forest Dawn is where wide-open views and peaceful mornings steal the show. Step out onto the giant deck to watch the first light spill across the forest ridge while buzzards wheel overhead. Inside, everything you need is close at hand — a double bed, kitchenette with fridge, microwave and hot plate, and a modern ensuite with heated towel rail. As evening falls, light the outdoor log burner or slip into the steaming wood-fired tub for a soak beneath the stars. Whether you’re brewing coffee as the dawn mist lifts or sharing wine as the sun dips low, Forest Dawn makes slowing down feel effortless.
Tucked away in its own secluded grove, Woodland Copse is a charming woodland retreat wrapped in birdsong and dappled light. Follow a winding path through the trees to discover your private deck overlooking the forest. The large bi-fold doors blur the line between indoors and out, inviting fresh air and the scent of pine into your cosy living space. The interior includes a comfy double bed, small kitchenette with toaster and kettle, and an ensuite shower room. Outside, your wood-fired hot tub and alfresco grill area are made for lazy afternoons and late-night conversations by the firelight. When darkness falls, the stars here seem impossibly close.
Drive to the far edge of the farm and step through your private gateway to find Rockery Retreat — a romantic hideaway overlooking meadow, woodland and a peaceful trout lochan. Here, you’ll feel cocooned by nature but with every comfort at your fingertips. Inside, there’s a double bed, a neat kitchenette with hob and microwave, and a stylish ensuite. Outside, sink into your Scandi-style tub as dusk settles over the hills, then grill supper in the covered outdoor kitchen before unwinding by the fire. Rockery Retreat is pure escapism — wild yet refined, simple yet special.
Aspen Dazzle is perched on an elevated ridge with panoramic views over forest, rocky crags and shimmering water. It’s a cabin that lives up to its name — light-filled, uplifting and perfectly private. Large sliding doors open onto a wraparound deck where you can spot deer or even otters near the lochan. Inside, you’ll find a double bed, kitchenette and ensuite shower, all styled with modern simplicity. Outside, the covered dining area and glowing fire make for atmospheric evenings, while the wood-fired tub beckons for a morning dip as mist rises from the valley below. Aspen Dazzle is Scotland at its most serene.
These cabins sit just outside Dalbeattie, a small market town nestled in Dumfries and Galloway — a region known for its wild coastline, rolling forests and quiet lochs. Explore the trails of Dalbeattie Forest on foot or bike, or wander down to the Solway Coast for windswept beaches and birdwatching. Visit the artists’ town of Kirkcudbright, browse local galleries and craft shops, or head to nearby Castle Douglas, famous for its food scene. For outdoor lovers, there’s kayaking on Loch Ken, stargazing in the Galloway Forest Dark Sky Park, and long scenic drives through one of Scotland’s most peaceful corners. However you spend your days, you’ll always look forward to coming home to your own little bit of bliss.
