1 Bedroom Cottage in Newton Stewart, Isle of Whithorn
Resting upon the Isle of Whithorn in Dumfries and Galloway is Tides Reach, a well-positioned, ground-floor apartment. Enjoying sea views and a remote setting, whilst offering two guests an open-plan living space, designated parking, and a pet-friendly abode, Tides Reach makes the ideal base for a romantic getaway. Park up in the designated parking space to the rear of the apartment and head towards the communal entrance, before reaching Tides Reach. Enter the open-plan living space where you can prepare meals in the well-equipped kitchen, dine as a two with sea glimpses in sight, and relax upon the plush sofa. When sleep calls, locate the spacious double bedroom, before awakening to a refresh in the bathroom; both a bath and shower are on offer. Venture outdoors to explore the marina, stopping off at The Steam Packet Inn for a bite to eat, or St Ninians Tearoom for a coffee and to stock up on the essentials, before hiking towards the Isle Head Lighthouse for a breath-taking scene of the coastline. By car, traverse towards Whithorn Priory & Museum, the pretty grounds of Galloway House Gardens, enveloped by colourful blooms and planters, tour the remains of Sorbie Tower, perfect for historian buffs, or brush up on your local knowledge at Creetown Heritage Museum; Gem Rock Museum, Kirkmabreck quarry, and Garrocher Market Garden are also popular attractions in the area. Complete your break by visiting the Galloway Forest Park, an expansive landscape ideal for hiking, cycling, fishing, wildlife spotting, and exploring, before returning home in time for supper. Enjoy all of this at Tides Reach. EPC Rating: Band D
The Isle of Whithorn, sometimes known as "The Isle," is a recognised excellent conservation area. In the viewfinder of any camera, the harbour's elegant crescent of shore and tidy dwellings combine for the ideal scene. Ninian, Scotland's first missionary and saint, established his church at Whithorn at the very beginning of the country's Christian history, more than 1600 years ago, when the town was already established. Even at the greatest tides, the Isle Church, a former Free Kirk, stands out prominently. The Isle Harbour, which used to be the destination for shipments of coal, fertiliser, and timber, is now bustling throughout the year with local boats going out to fish for crabs and lobsters and bringing back scallop catches from the Manx fleet that is in town. The award-winning Steam Packet Inn on the waterfront, however, welcomes some of the best right in!
