About this property

With convenient off-road parking for two cars, ground-floor living, and a toasty woodburning stove, this chic abode is perfect for families or friends seeking a relaxing getaway in a picturesque coastal setting. Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a stylish and spacious open-plan living area, where contemporary design meets comfort. The well-equipped kitchen is perfect for preparing your favourite meals, while the elegant dining area, framed by French doors, opens directly onto the garden, ideal for savouring meals with a view on those warm summer evenings. The sitting room invites you to unwind in front of the woodburning stove, with a Smart TV ready for movie nights in. For a quieter escape, the snug offers a pleasant retreat, complete with a TV, PlayStation, and a Velux window that reveals a charming sea view, a great spot to relax and watch the world go by, or for the kids to enjoy some friendly competition. Throughout the home, a subtle coastal theme adds a touch of seaside serenity, blending beautifully with the contemporary and classy décor. The ground floor hosts two beautifully presented bedrooms, a double and a twin, each offering generous storage. A sleek bathroom features a gorgeous freestanding bath, a handheld shower, and a separate walk-in shower. Upstairs, the king-size bedroom provides a private sanctuary, complete with a delightful en-suite shower room featuring a walk-in shower. Step outside into the immaculately maintained garden, where a lush lawn and stylish patio area create a gorgeous setting for alfresco dining or simply soaking up the sun. A sheltered seating area offers the perfect spot for planning your next day’s adventures, whatever the weather. Located just a short walk from Stranraer Harbour and Marina, you’ll find yourself close to the water’s edge, where you might even catch a glimpse of local watersports in action. During your stay, immerse yourself in the vibrant culture and captivating heritage of Stranraer. Partake in a selection of coastal walks and nature trails with stunning vistas, explore the beautifully landscaped Castle Kennedy Gardens, or delve into the fascinating Stranraer Museum. Venture a little further to the traditional market town of Dumfries, where you can relish in the poetic past of Scotland's National Bard at the Robert Burns House, or meander through the tranquil setting of the Crichton University Campus Gardens. Galloway is home to the awe-inspiring Galloway Forest Park waiting to be explored, and the magical Dark Sky Park - one of the best places in the world to enjoy the stars. Whether you're seeking a relaxing retreat or an action-packed adventure, there's something for everyone at Beach House.

Stranraer, which became a Burgh of Barony in 1596 and a Royal Burgh in 1617, lies on the shores of Loch Ryan on the northern side of the isthmus joining the Rhins of Galloway to the mainland. There are many shops and cafes to while away an hour or two and the Stranraer Town Trail explains some of the fascinating history. For walkers, the Southern Upland Way touches Stranraer on its way through the Galloway Hills, having begun in Portpatrick, 7 miles to the west. Three nearby gardens are open to the public and well worth a visit at Castle Kennedy, Glenwhan and Logan. Stranraer has several beaches, however it is worth travelling to Sandhead and New England Bay for wonderful sandy beaches. A short drive south and you come to the Mull of Galloway, Scotland’s southernmost point. The lighthouse on the headland looks over some of the last remaining sections of natural coastal habitat on the Galloway coast and an rspb nature reserve has been set up to retain this spectacular and diverse area.
