You are more than welcome to stay in my caravan Mull of Galloway. Check it out Newt on a search,Clashwhannon caravan park,Drummore.
Hopefully I will be there with my good lady and we can see some of the sights - they are magnificant
If I cannot be there I can arrange for the caravan keys to be left in the pub on the site. In the van there are cooking facilities,toilet,shower.
The pub on the site does bar meals
The caravan park is on the edge of the village of Drummore! In it there is not a lot - 2 pubs but both do food,one shop,one cafe,one post office and thats it. Mind you it is Gods Country my friend.
If I cannot be there for your visit - if you want to,I will arrange for Freddie the bass to take you fishing
All of my fishing gear in the van will be at your disposal as well. Also an OS map with all the fishing marks on.
You must also book a day with Ian Burrett for the tope or pollack if you decide to come to the caravan,by the way it is a freebie
There are loads of things to see locally,4 botanical gardens - check out the size of the palm trees (Gulf Stream effect)
Walks in the nearby Galloway Forest
Saint Ninnians Cave - if you are religeous it is a must.
The Southern tip of the Mull - on a clear day awesome - due south the Isale of Man about 25 miles away,to the west Ireland about the same distance,to the east the Lake District peaks about 90 miles away.
Something to think about.
To get there by car - basically you travel up the M6 to Carlisle then turn west onto the A75 towards Stranraer and then take the Drummore turn off just before Stranraer
Like Isay you are more than welcome.
If you decide to come over and we are not there sleeping bags will be there for you. Also grub,microwave,dvd player and dvds,etc
Go for it
If you decide to go further north it could be a good stopping off point for a few dats
