The small town of Stranraer is surrounded by sea and forest in the middle of Galloway region, yet still offers all necessities within walk distance. Shops, supermarkets and restaurants are all nearby. A fully equipped kitchen is there for anyone who likes to stay home for a meal.

Cliff walk, hidden beach walk, castle ground walk, botanic garden and hiking routes are all about 10 to 15 mins drive away. Wigtown, for book lovers, is also a short drive away. Nearby we also have Galloway Forest park, the only dark sky park in the country. There are wild deer and goat parks 40 mins drive away, which are super fun for both kids and adult animal lovers.

The big fenced garden at the back is convenient for those with pets for a quick evening potty. However, we kindly ask the guests not to leave their pets at home while they are away and take no responsibility of their pets jump over the fence and cause injuries. Guests are expected to pick up their pets’ waste and throw in one of the street bins.

The neighbourhood

There are two much larger greenery areas just 1-2 minutes' walk from the cottage—lovely off-site spots to relax or spend time with your furry friends!

A corner shop is 2-min walk by the junction of Glebe St and Sun St.

There are Lidl, Tesco, Argos, Morrisons, Subway and other shops and cafes nearby. Most of them are within short walking distance with a couple within 5 mins drive.

Fig & Olive is a great Café that offers authentic tea and really nice brunch

For fine ding, we recommend Henrys Bay House Restaurant, great atmosphere and locally sourced fresh seafood and meat. They offer 3 course meal for £25. A must-go in our opinion
