Portpatrick RNLI Lifeboat is launched from the harbour and can be seen going out to sea for both rescues and training days. There are good walking opportunities, including walks to Sandeel Bay and Lairds Bay, and from Portpatrick you can take a short walk up to Dunskey Castle, a 16th century ruin, set around a small bay with cliffs forming the backdrop. For the more adventurous hill walkers you can walk the Southern Upland Way, with Portpatrick providing the start or end point in the West. Stranraer is the nearest major town, 7.4 from New House, where there is a secondary school, primary schools, hospital (Galloway Community Hospital), supermarkets, shops, offices, hotels, restaurants, and a train station. The port of Cairnryan, 13.7 miles from New House, has two ferry operators running passenger and freight services to Northern Ireland.

There are a number of golf courses in the area including Dunskey Golf Club, within walking distance, Stranraer Golf Club, Wigtownshire County Golf Club and the famous Turnberry Golf Course is approximately 43 miles from Portpatrick. Both curling and horse riding are also very popular in the area, Stranraer & District Riding Club offers training and holds regular events, and curling is available at the North West Castle, Stranraer.

The kitchen is a bright and welcoming room with space for dining, the heart of this home, with French doors connecting indoors with the garden area. Cooking facilities are provided by a Rangemaster cooker, with a 5 ring electric hob and a Belfast sink sits perfectly within the solid oak worktop. The wooden floor continues into the sitting room adjacent, which can also be accessed from the hall, the layout is such it provides a flow throughout the property.

A bay window with a window seat provide additional well-lit space to sit and relax.
