www.westviewcottage-portwilliam.co.uk Port William has been a family holiday destination for the "Websters" for over four decades, and we recently made the decision to buy a property to ensure that we can continue to visit this idyllic location as often as possible. Over the course of two years, we have fully renovated the proper

ty back to bare stone and rebuilt it with the intention of creating a high-quality, cosy, peaceful retreat for holidaymakers to enjoy the area and for our family to return to year-round. With its prime location on the shores of Luce Bay and the large windows on the first floor, our cottage offers stunning views of the sea, the beach, and the surrounding landscape. The area is renowned for its unspoiled natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere, making it an ideal spot to relax and unwind. Whether you enjoy coastal walks with breath-taking sea views, strolling along woodland paths in nearby Galloway Forest Park, or taking on a challenge with a cliff-top hike along the Mull of Galloway, there are plenty of walking trails to explore. For those seeking places of interest to visit during their stay, the historic town of Whithorn, the Isle of Whithorn, and the picturesque village of Garlieston are all just a short drive away. You can also venture to Wigtown, Scotland's National Book Town, which is only a 20-minute drive from Port William. If you're looking for a day out, we recommend a visit to the nearby distilleries Bladnoch and Crafty, both of which offer tours and tastings. Alternatively, you can explore the stunning Glenwhan Gardens, enjoying the tranquil setting and a café lunch. I have put together 5 different day itineraries that I will share on this page that may give you some ideas as to what to do, as well as listing some other activities and where to read more! If you wish to book, then we are listed on Sykes Holiday Cottages. If you have any questions in the meantime, send them over ! Annabelle & Dean

Ruaridh Soutar has been working hard today, leading groups including this one from Wigtownshire U3A. We also just wanted to share a review from another recent group led by Finlay: "My group was on a tour of the iron age roundhouse on thursday and we just want to say it was an absolute pleasure, and i want to personally send my thanks to our tour guide Ruairidh, he was majorly knowledgeable and very very welcoming all round a brilliant tour. Is there a better place i can leave a public review because i believe everyone should experience this tour. 10/10". Well deserved Ruaridh Soutar👏👏
