This attractive, stone built, semi-detached house dates back to 1790 and is in a wonderful position overlooking the harbour with spectacular sea views. The house is newly refurbished yet retains charming original features including beamed ceilings and open fireplaces. The cottage style lounge and bedrooms all have stunning views and the house is very comfortably furnished in keeping with the traditional ambience.

Around the local area there are many historical places of interest to visit, the local golf clubs welcome visitors and magnificent coastal walking can be enjoyed. The house is within a few minutes walk of the village centre with its selection of shops and pub/restaurants.

Customer Reviews of Harbour Cottage, Isle of Whithorn - Sleeps 4


"Lovely cottage with an interesting view"

5 of 5 stars

Clean and well presented, it was a comfortable cottage with a fine view of the small harbour, where there was always something to watch. The pub nearby served good food at reasonable prices and was popular. The area is quiet - with some travel required for a change of scenery.

"Great location"

3 of 5 stars

Loved the location, by the harbour, near a pub with good beer and food. The house was comfortable, kitchen was pretty basic though. An old style house with low ceilings gives it loads of character but tall folks, like myself, have to be very careful.
