The neighbouring village of Sandhead includes a primary school, a village shop/Post Office, a hotel and restaurant, a doctors surgery, a bowling green, and a beautiful long beach.

The town of Stranraer lies approximately six miles away and has a good range of services and facilities, including a primary and secondary school, three supermarkets, banks, a community hospital, hotels, restaurants and cafes.

Accommodation
Dalvadie Farmhouse has four reception rooms, and the two at the front of the property each have a fireplace which could be reopened. The kitchen is a large room which can easily accommodate a six or even eight-seater table. There is plenty of cupboard space and a large gas range. To the side of the kitchen is a conservatory/boot room, and walking through the kitchen is another spacious room which could have several uses, from a dining room, television/family room, or playroom. Off this room is the room housing the boiler, which has enough space for use as a pantry, storeroom or even a small office.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, each with its own ensuite. Bedrooms three and four are separated from the main landing by a door and are accessed by a second hallway. This would allow the opportunity for a B and B business, or alternatively, if one ensuite was converted to a kitchenette, with the relevant planning permission, this could be easily turned into a neat little flat. Outside, the house has solar panels on the roof, providing a very high feed-in tariff. This tariff increases on an annual basis in line with the September inflation rate until 2036. The house is heated by an oil-fired boiler and has private drainage.

To the front of the house is a large space which could accommodate several cars. To the side of the kitchen is the decking area accessed by a door from the room behind. The field measures 2.7 acres and is divided into two, and is suitable for horses or keeping livestock. There is access from the lane via a gate at the top of the field. There are two sheds and a duck pond secured by a fence. There is a henhouse and duck shelters within the fenced area.

In the general area, there are several points of potential interest, including horse riding, walking and cycling. There are three botanical gardens, a wildlife park, and following along the lane outside the house lies the seaside town of Portpatrick, offering a selection of shops and cafes, a hotel, and sporting activities including rowing, sailing and boating.
Extras: Superfast broadband up to 60Mbps, Two static caravans, one industrial freezer unit.
