Out to sea there are dolphins, porpoise and minke whale to spot. Tours can also be taken at the lighthouse. The town of Stranraer is 9 miles away and offers shops, restaurants and pubs. There are also many coastal villages to explore in the area. Sea fishing, golf and horse riding are all available locally. Day trips to Ireland can be taken from Cairnryan. Beach 7 miles.

Fabulous cottage.

Fabulous cottage. Great location. Would have been good to have handwash in each bathroom (or let people know they need to bring their own). Would definitely stay again
