Surrounded by large gardens and scenic countryside, but just a mile from picturesque coastal village Portpatrick, this detached bungalow delivers the best of all worlds. Perfect for any pet-loving party of six, it features both a sun room and a wood burner for all-weather appeal.
Park on the driveway and unpack at your leisure, pausing for sniffs of fresh air and far-reaching country views. Step through the small porch and straight into the kitchen/diner, where there’s a Smart TV, floorspace for Fido to stretch out, and a table by the window that serves up more fabulous views. Adjacent, the lounge has a choice of soft seating and another Smart TV, while a wood burner will warm paws and toes in the cooler months. A second social space, the sunroom is off the lounge and has plush seating, a cooling tiled floor, a picture window, and patio doors leading directly into the garden. At the end of each day, settle Fido in his bed then choose your own – the bungalow has one super-king-size and two double bedrooms, all complemented by a chic shower room. There’s plenty for Fido to sniff as you unwind in the large, enclosed gardens – with mature trees, shrubs and hedges, they are sloped and include a separate patio area.
This welcoming abode sits just a mile from Portpatrick. Let the dog take the lead as you explore the village; low tide reveals a small, sandy beach, and the inner harbour is the starting point of the Southern Upland Way, Scotland's original coast-to-coast long distance walking route. Head to the Mull of Galloway (22.5 miles) for stunning views, or visit vibrant Stranraer (5.5 miles) on the southern shore of Loch Ryan. For waggy-tailed walks in well-tended grounds, Castle Kennedy and Glenwhan are both within 12 miles.
