Dinvin Cottage

Dinvin Cottage comes ready for a week away. The kitchen has an electric oven and hob, dishwasher, microwave and fridge-freezer, so you can cook properly or keep things simple. Electricity, heating, bed linen, towels and wifi are all included, along with initial fuel for the wood burner. There's parking for three cars on site, and the whole cottage is yours alone.

The layout spreads across two floors. Downstairs, a sun room with patio doors opens onto an enclosed garden with seating and lawn space. The living room has a wood burner and smart TV, while the kitchen-diner handles both cooking and eating. Upstairs are three bedrooms: one with a super king bed, two with doubles. A single shower room serves the sleeping areas. One step at the entrance, and slopes in the grounds, are worth knowing about.

Stranraer is close by on the Dumfries and Galloway coast, and Portpatrick lies nearby. No smoking inside the cottage. One well-behaved pet is welcome.
