By land or by sea, the Isle is easy to get to. A couple of centuries ago, the Isle of Whithorn was indeed an island, connected to the mainland by a causeway. Over time, houses and other buildings were built along it, and the attractive harbour area that we have today was formed.

The map above shows approximate journey times by road from the Isle of Whithorn.

The village is about a half-hour's drive from the A75 Euroroute that links Dumfries and the ferry terminal of Stranraer. Lying at the tip of the Machars peninsula, the Isle is one of Scotland's most southerly communities - further south than Newcastle on Tyne in England!

Getting to the Isle of whithorn by Road....

We are just under 1 hrs driving time from Stranraer & Cairnryan harbours and high speed ferry services to Northern Ireland (Belfast & Larne). Glasgow (City Centre) is approximately 2 ½ hours; Manchester and Liverpool - 4 hrs and the north-east of England 3 hrs away. Local bus services connect with principal long distance coach routes at Newton Stewart, 22 miles from the Isle. The local roads of the Machars peninsula are both quiet and free of major gradients, so Cycle Expeditions to the Isle are easily planned.
