This spacious detached house dating to the late 1800s is situated on the edge of the pretty village of Whithorn and 3 miles from the first of many sandy beaches, with open uninterrupted views across the countryside from the rear.

This is an ideal base from which to explore the breathtaking scenery and areas of outstanding natural beauty, wilderness and romance.
