Revisiting an area I used to live and miss…
Rosebank was all you promised and more. A beautiful home, perfectly situated and lacking nothing you could need. Toasty heating + lashings of hot water !
The weather was kind to us and we have made considerable use of the almost empty beach ! “BLISS”
The boys enjoyed the Logan Fish Pond https://www.portloganfishpond.com/ great staff and tackle and bait available was a bonus.
Mull of Galloway + Lighthouse were a hit. Dolphins in the bay and seals at Ardwell. Ardwell bay deserted & stunning.
Crafty (Gin) Distillery at Newton Stewart https://craftydistillery.com/ is Excellent & the café dog friendly.
Custom House, Stranraer is both dog and vegan friendly !! Clashwhannan Inn, Drummore welcomed us & dog too.

It’s an area we’ve visited before and to be so close to one of the best beaches in the area. Cottage itself suited our needs perfectly; modern, cosy, comfortable, well equipped and immaculately clean.
Definite things to do in the area:-
Enjoy Port Logan beach!! Visit pretty Portpatrick harbour. Stroll on the deserted beach at Ardwell Bay. Spot seals basking on the rocks from the picnic area just north of Ardwell village. Enjoy lunch at Gallie Craig Coffee House taking in spectacular views of the Mull of Galloway lighthouse. Visit Logan Botanic Gardens and treat yourselves to cake in the café.

A “WOW” on the Web site and a bigger “WOW” on arrival.
An outstanding cottage with all mod cons and very clean.
Thumbs up for the freezer it meant I could pre-cook the dog’s dinners and shove in the freezer only needing to defrost.
The “boys” loved exploring the large garden.
A lovely quiet location and great for exploring that end of the map.
Thanks so much for allowing us to stay, thanks for the welcome pack”.

“Katie McGavigan reviewed Port Logan Holiday Cottage – 5 star
We stayed at Rosebank for a week this summer. The cottage is incredibly well looked after, very clean and really well equipped. It was perfect for us. Denise and Nick were really helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. We have 3 children so being across the road from the beach was great and the children cycled around the village for hours. There are very few places where it is safe for young children to have so much freedom. The back garden is a sun trap and very private which is lovely when you want a holiday that means you can get away from it all. The ice cream kiosk along the road was a bonus (open Fri, Sat, Sun). It wasn’t our first visit to the area and won’t be our last”.

“Another perfect stay, cottage spotless and welcoming and as always a lovely welcome pack.
We had so much time relaxing, reading and exploring.
Then sunsets on the path past the pier are amazing.
My daughter, partner and their kids came for a day and went snorkelling while we had a swim in the sea, and they all had the best day and didn’t want to leave.
We also explored Kirk Maiden Cemetery and High Slock in our search of our family tree and got lots of information and pictures.
Thank you so much again for sharing this wee piece of Heaven.
See you again for the New Year.”

“May I say Another wonderful week at your cottage, enhanced by the weather !!
how thoughtful you are with little touches, like tissues and flowers.
Simon says thanks for the fork (Simon is a keen fisherman and needed a fork to dig bait).
May I just say, perhaps some fold up chairs would be useful for us “Oldies” who can’t walk well !
Regular guest here again,
Simon and Jacqui love Port Logan and will be back for a month towards the end of the year.
Simon has just had another Birthday but we don’t consider you to be “oldies”.
We do appreciate the size of our garden so we have just ordered another picnic bench and table for the lower area.
As with your suggestion about a bait digging fork for fishing we always respond.”

“I saw Rosebank Cottage on the internet and thought it looked just right,
a place to stay for several weeks for some well-earned respite.
In I came to a light, airy space as clean and tidy as can be, beautifully maintained garden and right next to the sea.
Villagers made me feel at home local ice cream is a must (https://www.visitsouthwestscotland.com/attractions/cool-licks-and-hot-drinks-ltd/ )
Rosebank held firm and true when storm Horace began to gust.
A knees up at the hoolie I stayed up past eleven, the clean sea air and walks with dog this is my idea of heaven..
So sadly now it’s time for home thank you Denise & Nick, your cottage is a perfect place and leaving makes me sick ! xxxx”

Everyone loved the cottage and we got lots of things in the welcome pack but mummy said we couldn’t have any as doggies aren’t allowed chocolates and biscuits. We did have our sweets with us so we didn’t eat those we had left us by Denise & Nick but thank you.

Revisiting an area I used to live and miss…
Rosebank was all you promised and more. A beautiful home, perfectly situated and lacking nothing you could need. Toasty heating + lashings of hot water !
The weather was kind to us and we have made considerable use of the almost empty beach ! “BLISS”
The boys enjoyed the Logan Fish Pond https://www.portloganfishpond.com/ great staff and tackle and bait available was a bonus.
Mull of Galloway + Lighthouse were a hit. Dolphins in the bay and seals at Ardwell. Ardwell bay deserted & stunning.
Crafty (Gin) Distillery at Newton Stewart https://craftydistillery.com/ is Excellent & the café dog friendly.
Custom House, Stranraer is both dog and vegan friendly !! Clashwhannan Inn, Drummore welcomed us & dog too.

“Hi Denise & Nick,
A “WOW” on the Web site and a bigger “WOW” on arrival.
An outstanding cottage with all mod cons and very clean.
Thumbs up for the freezer it meant I could pre-cook the dog’s dinners and shove in the freezer only needing to defrost.
The “boys” loved exploring the large garden.
A lovely quiet location and great for exploring that end of the map.
Thanks so much for allowing us to stay, thanks for the welcome pack”.

“Katie McGavigan reviewed Port Logan Holiday Cottage – 5 star
We stayed at Rosebank for a week this summer. The cottage is incredibly well looked after, very clean and really well equipped. It was perfect for us. Denise and Nick were really helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. We have 3 children so being across the road from the beach was great and the children cycled around the village for hours. There are very few places where it is safe for young children to have so much freedom. The back garden is a sun trap and very private which is lovely when you want a holiday that means you can get away from it all. The ice cream kiosk along the road was a bonus (open Fri, Sat, Sun). It wasn’t our first visit to the area and won’t be our last”.

“Another perfect stay, cottage spotless and welcoming and as always a lovely welcome pack.
We had so much time relaxing, reading and exploring.
Then sunsets on the path past the pier are amazing.
My daughter, partner and their kids came for a day and went snorkelling while we had a swim in the sea, and they all had the best day and didn’t want to leave.
We also explored Kirk Maiden Cemetery and High Slock in our search of our family tree and got lots of information and pictures.
Thank you so much again for sharing this wee piece of Heaven.
See you again for the New Year.”

“May I say Another wonderful week at your cottage, enhanced by the weather !!
how thoughtful you are with little touches, like tissues and flowers.
Simon says thanks for the fork (Simon is a keen fisherman and needed a fork to dig bait).
May I just say, perhaps some fold up chairs would be useful for us “Oldies” who can’t walk well !
Regular guest here again,
Simon and Jacqui love Port Logan and will be back for a month towards the end of the year.
Simon has just had another Birthday but we don’t consider you to be “oldies”.
We do appreciate the size of our garden so we have just ordered another picnic bench and table for the lower area.
As with your suggestion about a bait digging fork for fishing we always respond.”

“I saw Rosebank Cottage on the internet and thought it looked just right,
a place to stay for several weeks for some well-earned respite.
In I came to a light, airy space as clean and tidy as can be, beautifully maintained garden and right next to the sea.
Villagers made me feel at home local ice cream is a must (https://www.visitsouthwestscotland.com/attractions/cool-licks-and-hot-drinks-ltd/ )
Rosebank held firm and true when storm Horace began to gust.
A knees up at the hoolie I stayed up past eleven, the clean sea air and walks with dog this is my idea of heaven..
So sadly now it’s time for home thank you Denise & Nick, your cottage is a perfect place and leaving makes me sick ! xxxx”

“Lovely cottage, very well equipped with everything we needed. Had a couple of lovely days although the weather was not very good. Would love to come back again when it’s a bit warmer, and will definately recommend this wee cottage. I loved the peace and quiet and the privacy.”

“Cottage is great ! Visit Logan Botanic – superb gardens and our 2nd trip there. Ardwell House & Gardens – hidden gem in lovely walled garden, just us and the gardener – “wonderful “! Portpatrick is great for a day trip – buy gifts from the RNLI shop. Take the ferry from Cairnryan to Belfast to see the spectacular Titanic exhibition. Stena do a day trip 11:30am back 10pm for £80.00 (family of 4). Kirkmadrine Stones is otherworldly and the ancient church is in a very peaceful spot. Otherwise just pootling on the beach and hopefully seeing spectacular sunsets like we enjoyed.”

“Rosebank has a special place in my heart since I was a wee girl and it was so lovely to come back and see the house again. It has changed completely but has been beautifully renovated. So comfortable and the little extra touches touches make it feel very special. Also a perfect place to come with dogs! I loved showing my friend this fabulous area that used to be my home. Will be back soon, I hope.”

Weather has been great so we’ve managed to get out and about a lot. We’ve seen lots of wildlife including seals, deer, badgers and a red squirrel. We would love to come back some time!”
