Lovely spacious house in the heart of portpatrick. Very comfy beds and nice bedding. It was good to have three bathrooms / showers. Could definitely do with more towels and tea towels. Only one bath towel per guest, no extra hand towels. Had a lovely BBQ one day, however, there are only 3 garden chairs in the back garden, for 8 guests.Overall a really nice house, would stay again.
