Loch Dornal is an irregular shaped, shallow, freshwater loch in Strathclyde, in the Southern Uplands of south-west Scotland. It lies approximately 8 mi (13 km) northwest of the town of Newton Stewart.[1]
There are several islets in the loch some of which contain architectural features.[3]
The loch is stocked with rainbow trout and fishing is permitted with permission from Drumlamford Estate.[4]

The loch was surveyed[1] in 1903 by James Murray and later charted [5] as part of Sir John Murray's Bathymetrical Survey of Fresh-Water Lochs of Scotland 1897-1909.
