Smugglers Cove Gift Shop

Reviewed By Bandlo

It was a bit rainy whilst we were visiting Port Patrick so decided to pop into Smugglers Cove and after I'd been in, I was pleased it was! It's looks are very deceptive, it goes back a long way, so it holds much more than the antiques shown outside. I bought a lovely pair of earrings and could have bought much more. The staff were friendly and helpful and my earrings were beautifully wrapped.

Can't go in but the view is worth the sometimes muddy walk. Good view back over the town and different route back along old railway track.

Southern Upland Way

Reviewed By Tillyman

So, we began the Upland walk at Portpatrick and were soon clinging to the land-side of a cliff walk. Scary at times for a novice no matter what your age, and demands great care. We only went as far as the second bay and then returned via a forest walk. That was enough for us, but it was exhilarating . Proper shoes and gear definitely required. After rains the paths can be very slippery.

Lovely to explore this area and find such a historic spot. It was so lovely that I sat and painted it. Port Patrick is a lovely little sea front town. Wander the back streets to find these hidden gems
