Let your holiday begin at the beautiful Ben ma Cree, a stunning cottage in an idyllic coastal location with the most spectacular sea views in Portpatrick, probably one of the most fantastic locations in Dumfries and Galloway. Ben ma Cree sits in an elevated position overlooking the pretty little harbour town of Portpatrick. It dates back several centuries and is steeped in history, having once been in use as the toll house regulating the passage of traffic from the harbour.
Your stay at Ben ma Cree is made all the more perfect with meticulous attention to detail throughout from the modern, well equipped kitchen, stunning beds and the icing on the cake is the upstairs sitting room with a balcony taking in those stunning views over the fishing harbour and across the sea to Ireland.
Take a stroll down to the harbour and watch the boats coming in, or for the more adventurous, the dramatic cliff top walk is a must after which you can enjoy a superb meal and a glass of wine in the Mount Stewart Hotel, a beautiful boutique Hotel overlooking the water, where you can take advantage of a 10% discount privilege card while staying at Ben Ma Cree.
