Port William Cottages
Dubbed 'Scottish Village of the
Year' in 2008, Port William is a proud and welcoming village on
Scotland's dramatic Atlantic Coast. Should you rent a cottage
in Port William, you'll be made to feel extremely welcome; the
residents here - though vehemently proud of their village - are
happy to share it with visitors, something which lead Port William
to be named Scotland's "most vibrant" village in
2007.
Thanks to its location on Scotland's
wild Atlantic seaboard, Port William is perfect for coastal
holidays. The village has a proud fishing heritage, with a once
bustling harbour and bronze statue of a fisherman on the seafront.
Take a walk along Port William's shoreline on a clear day, and
both the Isle of Man and Ireland are visible thanks to the
village's south easterly aspect - don't forget the
camera!
