The Mull of Galloway Lighthouse Holiday Cottages at Scotland’s most southerly point are the perfect choice for your next self-catering holiday. Located at the Mull of Galloway Lighthouse, our three cottages offer a truly unique and special holiday experience. The cottages are surrounded by beautiful scenery, dramatic coastline and a wealth of wildlife right on your doorstep.

The cottages have been carefully restored and are tastefully decorated to maintain their original charm. Each cottage is fully equipped, centrally heated, light and spacious with all the charm you would expect of a former lighthouse keeper’s cottage.

Thanks to local photographer Graham McPherson,  you can now see right inside the three cottages and surroundings.  With kind permission from the Northern Lighthouse Board, you can also take in a 360 degree view from the Light room at the top of the tower, as well as a stunning view from the balcony.  Click on the image or button below to check it out.

On a clear day experience spectacular clifftop views with uninterrupted views of the Dumfries and Galloway coast, Cumbria, Isle of Man and Ireland. The Mull of Galloway is one of Scotland’s most stunning and undiscovered locations. It is the perfect holiday location for couples, friends or families.

All our cottages are dog friendly.  Up to two dogs per cottage are permitted at an extra cost of £20 per dog per stay.  Please read our Dog Policy before booking to ensure a happy stay for everyone.

How lucky we are to have found such a gem!

This was our second visit which says it all really. There were 3 generations of us visiting and everyone had a fantastic time. We had our 6 and nearly 2 year old and the layout of the cottage really made us at ease that our toddler couldn’t hurt herself falling down steps or anything. The cottage was really well equipped (apart from the fact that we couldn’t find bin bags). The views are stunning from every angle and all the staff we came into contact with were so friendly (we went up the lighthouse a couple of times and into the exhibition). It was easy to book and communication has been perfect throughout. I don’t have a bad word to say about it. How lucky we are to have found such a gem!

We have had such a lovely few days at Puffin Cottage again and been so comfy and enjoyed the peace. We really appreciate all you do to allow folk to stay in this stunning spot. A highlight was seeing 6 Dolphins larking about for half an hour! Plenty of birdlife and just ambling around the headland sea watching has been perfect. Love having the Lighthouse so close and watch it silently lighting the night. Thank you and yes we really hope to come back to this beautiful place. A real tonic.

A stunning location, plenty to see and do. The accommodation was spacious and comfortable, with everything you need for a pleasant and peaceful stay. It was great to see the Lighthouse and Foghorn being preserved, with loads of information on hand and everyone there very helpful. The weather was amazing too, couldn’t help but relax! Will definitely be back.

The cottage was clean, spacious and comfy, even in quite wild conditions it was warm and cosy. Wonderful place to be and great to keep this going as a community venture. We would definitely come back

Peaceful

We fell in love with the Mull of Galloway last year and knew we’d return.

As before, the holiday cottage had everything we needed. The cottage was spotlessly clean and the beds super comfy.

We love the remoteness and the peace and quite the Mull of Galloway offers. It really is a place to get away from it all.
We were so lucky to spot a large pod of dolphins on our last day there. A truly magical experience.
