Ideal touring base for a traditional seaside holiday (pets welcome!). Situated in the Rhins of Galloway in the coastal village of Drummore, Scotland’s most southerly village, this holiday cottage stands on the shore of Luce Bay with its sand and shingle beaches just across the road. The well-equipped cottage offers stunning views across the expanse of Luce Bay with its white tipped waves and sea birds, beautiful in the summer, but equally spectacular for wave watching in winter. The area is unspoilt, the scenery idyllic, and the seascapes around the Rhins as dramatic as they are beautiful. Attractions include golf courses and the rspb Scotland Mull of Galloway Nature Reserve where thousands of seabirds nest in the cliff face during the spring and summer. Harbour porpoises, dolphins, seals, red squirrel and otters can all be seen in the area. Logan Botanical Gardens is a must during spring and summer with its beautiful displays of rare and native plants. Other beautiful gardens in the area include Castle Kennedy, Glenwhan and Dunskey. Logan Fishpond in the nearby village of Port Logan is an interesting and unusual local attraction.

The cottage is very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. We loved the views and the fact that it was very quiet. We received a warm welcome at The Ship and we found the food to be very good. Overall our experience was very good and we hope to return.

Ideal getaway for those seeking a quiet crowd free escape. Beautiful local beaches and interesting places to visit such as Mull of Galloway lighthouse and Logan gardens. Port Patrick a short drive away with lovely harbour and great cliff top walk to castle. The Ship Inn Drummore is very friendly with great food and real ales.

This isn’t our first, and won’t be our last stay Jura! It’s in a gorgeous location, the sunrise and sunsets are spectacular. Stranraer is 20 mins down the road, and it’s the perfect slow down holiday but with lots to explore. We come home with bucket loads of beach treasures every time and find new activities to do. This trip we spotted dolphins at Port Patrick and the Mull of Galloway lighthouse. The hosts are wonderful and the house feels like a home! I’m already planning next year.
