Take a stroll along the seafront and spend a few hours in Agnew Park which has a wide range of leisure facilities for all ages, including a boating lake, a play park for the younger kids, and an 18-hole putting green, or just enjoy a morning coffee in the café making the most of the views over Lochryan Bay. The town also offers a wide range of shops, pubs, and restaurants where you can dine out. This beautiful area of southwest Scotland is a delightful area and boasts rugged coastlines and secluded sandy beaches, which benefit from the warmth of the passing Gulf Stream, and is surrounded by breathtaking scenery. There are many beautiful gardens to explore, including the world-renowned Logan Botanical Gardens. Take a drive out to some of the many pretty little ports such as Sandhead and Portpatrick, or the rspb Scotland Mull of Galloway Nature Reserve, Scotland’s most southerly point, where thousands of sea birds nest in the cliff face during the spring and summer. Walking is a delight, whether clifftop, beaches, hills, or forests, and the Southern Upland Way passes close by. Perfect for cycling enthusiasts, the world-famous 7Stanes are within easy reach. If you prefer golf, there are many facilities nearby, and the county course is just a short drive away. Nearby Cairnryan is home to the Stena Line ferry, making a day trip to Ireland a great day out.

Lovely cottage, great open plan kitchen, diner, living room. Two good size bedrooms, rear having spectacular morning views.Comes fully equipped with lots of thoughtful extras. The location is perfect, right on the shoreline. Great having off street parking and patio too. Close to all local amenities, free parking in town (few minutes drive) or a 15 minute walk through a lovely park with pond for the swans.Note that the staircase is open so if you have small children or dogs bringing a stair gate.

FAB - U - LOUS!!!Accommodation was 1st class with every consideration given by owner Emma to any possible request we might make. I cannot fault the property or the care that she has given to making her guests feel so at home. It was all those 'small touches' that made the difference. We looked to extend our stay but (unsurprisingly) she was fully booked for the next few weeks, so just have to book another stay for later in the year.
