Walk a few miles north along the headland on the Southern Upland Way and admire the gorgeous lighthouse and the peaceful beach at Killantringan – where there’s even a shipwreck to see when the water is calm.
Places to Visit
There is an abundance of activities to arrange and get involved in when staying in the Portpatrick area and specifically staying at Fernhill Hotel.
Take a leisurely stroll around the picture postcard village and visit the local craft shops on offer or simply take a break and watch the boats coming in and out of the harbour. The chance to have a quick round of golf is always an option as the Dunskey Golf club is just over the road, or try your hand at Creachmore in Stranraer.
The Fernhill Hotel is a great base from which to explore the surrounding area including:
