Bedroom: Kingsize (5ft) Bed

First Floor:

Living room: Freeview TV, Woodburner. Electric central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Initial fuel for wood burner included, remainder available locally. Welcome pack.. On road parking. No smoking.. The Old Toll House is a distinctive and unique bow-ended cottage, formerly a Toll House in the 19th century set in a prominent position as you drive down towards the Harbour in this pretty little village. The Old Toll House has been completely renovated throughout in 2021 and the owner’s eye for detail is evident as you step through the door.

With quality and comfort paramount throughout on the ground floor, there is a modern fully fitted kitchen/dining room, a plush shower room and the large bedroom is delightful with its bowed walls and luxurious bed. Upstairs is pretty special – the large living room has windows on two elevations where you can get a glimpse of the sea, a wonderful log wood burner for those chillier evenings, and comfortable sofas and chairs to complement the room.

Portpatrick is one of the most popular little holiday villages on the coast in beautiful Dumfries and Galloway. Set around a small bay with cliffs forming the backdrop in years gone by, it was a busy transport port to Northern Ireland. On clear night you can see the lights on the Irish Coast and the sun setting behind the Mourne Mountains. The Old Toll House is only a hundred yards or so from the bustle of the Harbour where you can take a sea fishing or sightseeing cruise, or why not relax in one of the several pubs along the seafront and just watch the boats coming and going? Walking is a pleasure in and around the village with spectacular cliff paths which take you past the ruins of Dunskey Castle and several secluded bays and from the village for the intrepid walker you can start your journey on the Southern Upland Way.

The village is a hive of activity throughout the year for guests at the Old Toll House to enjoy from the RNLI Lifeboat week, the Music Festival, Farmers Markets and Craft Fayres to Vintage Truck Rallies. Being on the recently formed South West Coastal 300 a stunningly beautiful touring route throughout the whole region, Portpatrick is the perfect base for your holiday. Beach 1 mile.

We had an absolutely lovely week stay at The Old Toll House. The location is perfect for exploring the local area either in the car or on foot. Additionally the cottage itself is well equipped, clean and comfortable. We will definitely recommend it to others. Thank you

The old toll house is in a great location close to the sea front. We enjoyed our stay very much and would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday with the added benefits of being able to explore the nearby coastal paths.The house was very comfortable, especially with the log burner in the upstairs living room. The Downstairs area was a bit cooler with the heating adjustment limited to the bedroom. The kitchen is very well equipped. Overall it is an excellent home and is well worth a visit.
