With its rspb visitor centre, the area is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest, and you can enjoy a stunning circular walk where thousands of seabird nests in the cliff face during the spring and summer. Harbour porpoises, dolphins, seals, otters and minke whales can also be spotted.

The walled garden is particularly breathtaking with its blaze of colour. Beach 200 yards.

Great cottage in a remote location.Garden a sheltered sun trap.As you expect with a remote location you have to travel a few miles for the nearest shop.

Ardwell Park is very comfortable, well maintained and so peaceful. The village is very quiet and the beach is only a short walk away with fantastic views over the Bay of Luce. This was our second visit and we enjoyed discovering new places to walk to from the cottage. We particularly liked our morning stroll through Ardwell Estate. We took the car to visit nearby Logan Botanical Gardens, well worth a visit and also spent a day in Stranraer to complete a parkrun, have lunch and do a supermarket shop. Cycling around the peninsular can be a bit of a challenge as it's quite undulating but the roads are fairly quiet and the views are well worth the effort.Janet and Nick are fabulous hosts and are willing to help at very short notice. They went to great lengths to provide a welcome pack that was suitable for a diabetic and they had remembered that information from our 1st visit!We are already planning our 3rd visit and I can highly recommend this place.
