About this property
Fabulous rural cottage a 10 minute walk to the beach with stunning view all around. Ideal for summe
A charming single storey cottage a few minutes walk away from a fabulous dog friendly beach. West Lodge has two good sized bedrooms (a double and a twin) a bathroom with a shower over the bath, and a lovely light and airy living area with a cosy wood burning stove and a separate kitchen with a door that leads out to the enclosed garden with stunning sea views. It is set on its own a 10 minute walk away from Powillimount Beach. There are lovely walks straight from the door and a garden you may not want to leave - just stay put, enjoy the peace and quiet, the lovely views, the birdsong and the glorious Galloway countryside that surrounds you. The beds are comfortable, it is spotlessly clean, and there is everything there that you will need for a great holiday. Masses to do and explore nearby .
