About The Lodge

Cottage rental includes

What a wonderful base to discover this beautiful area of Galloway! The Lodge is idyllically placed sitting adjacent to Loch Ryan and overlooking the volcanic rock of Ailsa Craig rising from the sea! The 'Cottage' is tucked away in a quiet and relaxing area of Stranraer where you can find solitude whilst the facilities of the town are easily accessible. Loch Ryan is a sea loch which acts as a natural harbour providing calm waters for the ferries operating between Scotland and Northern Ireland. A voyaging ferry ablaze with lights against a clear night time sky is a sight to behold! Stranraer is the largest settlement on the loch's shores and the town is reached in just over a mile; a very pleasant walk along the loch side. For children Agnew Park has pedal boats, train rides, an adventure playground and crazy golf and thanks to its unique geographical position the area is touched by the warm breezes of the Gulf Stream, however if it does rain there is always the leisure pool! As one would expect from the gentle climate, this country has some beautiful, diverse and spectacularly stunning gardens on offer including, Logan Botanic Gardens, Castle Kennedy and Glenwhan gardens, all being within a short distance. With around 200 miles of amazing coastline on offer, the area boasts some stunning beaches and on many days the only footprints in the sand will be your own. The coastline north and south of Portpatrick is indented with secluded bays and beaches - Morroch Bay, Sandeel Bay, Lairds Bay and perhaps the loveliest of them all, Killantringan. Portpatrick is cradled at the foot of rocky cliffs and looks across 22 miles of the Irish Channel to Donaghdee. This is where the annual lifeboat week and the acclaimed folk festival is held. Just down the road from here is Port Logan where the BBC's 2000 Acres of Sky was filmed. Stranraer is a great centre for the serious walker and it is skirted by the Southern Upland Way which runs 212 miles from Portpatrick in the west across the South of Scotland to Cockburnspath on the east coast. If you wish to venture a little further then head for the Galloway Hills where there is some seriously challenging walking to be had. The area is a haven for golfing enthusiasts with a plethora of excellent courses; 18 holes of golf at Creachmore, Glenluce or Dunskey at Portpatrick. Further east is a championship course at Southerness and you could spend a day in the area calling in at the Artisit's Town of Kirkcudbright, The Granite Town of Dalbeattie and Scotland's Book town at Wigtown. Let's not forget the cycling enthusiasts too as the area has a good choice of world class cycling on offer with various venues offering the 7Stanes world acclaimed mountain biking experience. A really different experience would be to visit Logan Fish Pond, a fish larder for storing live sea fish within a natural rock formation on the shore. Recent additions to the original pond now include Touch Pools, Cave quarium and Gift Shop. On the rocks next to the Fish Pond is the Bathing Hut, now restored and open for viewing. Since early times the area's proximity to Ireland has established close links with the Emerald Isle and why not take the fast ferry across the water and see for yourself how green it is on the other side! Belfast has some excellent shopping on offer for a day of retail therapy. Scotland's most southerly point is at the Mull of Galloway which unbelievably is further south than Hartlepool. On a clear day, Ireland, The Isle of Man and Cumbria are visible!Property is all on ground floor level.
