About this property

Kringlands is an attractive, detached home on a dairy farm on the outskirts of Kirkcolm. The property sits on a hillside overlooking the beach and sea, the perfect place for a family or group of friends to get together. Set within a beautifully maintained garden with plenty of space to play, the house is filled with warm colours throughout and has a games room with pool table and ice-cream freezer. Be greeted by ample off-road parking before entering the hallway, and from here, locate the sitting room with plush sofas to unwind on and a wood burning stove to light up on cool evenings. Walking through the property, the spacious kitchen/diner offers granite worktops to prepare home-cooked meals and a double electric oven and gas hob to do the cooking. Gather at the large dining table to recount the adventures of the day or follow the French doors out of the lounge to the lovely garden to savour your meals in the sun. After a day filled with fun, the snug room offers a peaceful setting to catch-up on your favourite shows on the TV, which can be followed by a soak in the first-floor bathroom to relax your muscles. The first floor hosts a super-king-size bed, zip/link for flexible sleeping and two king-size bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms whilst the ground-floor is home to a super-king-size with an en-suite shower room. In the morning, begin your day with a stroll along the beach to let the sea-air awaken you. Venture to the historic town of Stranraer, home to beautiful beaches, the Stranraer Museum, which is housed in a restored Georgian mansion, The Castle of St John and enjoy a coffee in one of the numerous eateries around the town centre. Savour the freshly caught local seafood at Henry’s Bayhouse or a great choice of modern European cuisine at Landos Restaurant. Alternatively enjoy a great choice of freshly made pizzas at Papa Rab’s restaurant. For sporting enthusiasts, there are several golf courses close-by, including Portpatrick and Dunksey, whilst the history buffs can learn about the past at Castle Kennedy Gardens.
