Drive north from Carlisle and head west along the north side of the Solway Firth through Dumfries, Kirkcudbright and Newton Stewart before turning south down the far west side of Luce Bay, and you will arrive at Drummore a tiny harbour in the little known, completely unspoilt extreme south-west of Scotland known as The Rhins of Galloway.
 
This is now a quiet pastoral area with not much commercial fishing.   The row of cottages, facing Luce Bay, just outside the village (shops, pubs, fishing trips) and 300 yards from the harbour, were purposely designed to look like fishermens' cottages. Gigha is in the middle of this terrace and is extremely well furnished and fitted, with   its own patio area facing south; and there is a shared play-area with swing and chute for children.

This is a renowned area of natural beauty a paradise for walkers and ornithologists who can walk or drive up to the lighthouse at the top of the Mull of Galloway, watch the birds, and see the Isle of Man; and also for gardeners as it is warmed by the Gulf Stream and there are several very well-known Gardens. There are many attractive pubs, such as at Portpatrick where you can eat on the harbourside, see Ireland, and watch the ferries coming in from Larne; or find the hotel in a hidden bay where Churchill had secret meetings with Eisenhower in World War 2.
