About this property
Private garden
On street/residents parking
Double glazing
Whithorn, often called the Cradle of Christianity in Scotland, is one of the country’s most historic and spiritual destinations. It was here that Saint Ninian founded the Candida Casa, or “White House, establishing Scotland’s first stone church and marking the beginning of Christian worship north of the Roman frontier. Today, visitors can explore the Whithorn Priory and Museum, where the Whithorn Trust showcases over 1,500 years of history through early Christian stones, relics, and exhibitions telling the story of pilgrimage and faith. Just a short drive south lies the Isle of Whithorn, a picturesque fishing village connected to the mainland since 1790 by a causeway. St. Ninian’s Cave, about three miles west, is traditionally believed to be the saint’s place of prayer and remains a popular site of pilgrimage today. Visitors can also enjoy walks along the rugged coastline, explore the Isle Head Lighthouse and the remains of an ancient promontory fort, or simply watch fishing boats come and go from the harbour once used for trade with Ireland and the Isle of Man. The village even features in film history, having served as a location for The Wicker Man. Surrounded by the Galloway and Southern Ayrshire unesco Biosphere, Whithorn offers opportunities for cycling, birdwatching, fishing, golf, and peaceful nature walks. Whether you come for its sacred heritage, beautiful landscapes, or sense of tranquility, Whithorn and the Isle of Whithorn offer an unforgettable glimpse into Scotland’s spiritual and coastal past.
