I go on holiday near this lighthouse and I've been going since I was little. From the first time I've always looked forward to going. You can climb the lighthouse then go outside when you get to the top, it has lovely walkways. Definitely recommended.

What a beautiful place to visit. The views were amazing from the lighthouse and fog horn. We thankfully had a beautifully warm sunny day and could see for miles, lovely walks around and about here. Would defiantly recommend a visit

Worth the trip for the views alone, on the day we were there little wildlife around, but we had a nice walk and the cafe is excellent. You only pay if you go up the lighthouse. There is wheelchair access to the cafe and disabled parking. Followed it with a picnic on Ardwell Beach (single track access, no facilities) and... More

Back at the Mull of Galloway Lighthouse over the holiday weekend. Weather on Saturday and Sunday was fantastic and the views were great. Even saw a pod of porpoises. Well worth a visit!

Having decided on a trip of the lighthouse imagine our disappoint to find once we get there that the only thing open is the Cafe. So it was a case of walking round the outside in the freezing cold wind and then warming up with a cup of tea. NOT IMPRESSED

Went to mull of Galloway lighthouse in set 2012. It's a few miles drive down a single track with a few passing places. So take care. Ample parking at lighthouse. Brilliant cafe and shop next to it with reasonable prices. It's only a couple of pounds entry and that gets you into museum and up to the top of the... More

Visited with 2 young boys. Staff very friendly and helpful. Everyone got a certificate for climbing lighthouse, which was great for show and tell at school. Views were amazing to Ireland, Isle of Man and beyond. Would recommend if visiting the area.

Just returned home from a blissfully peaceful weekend spent at Kittiwake House at the Mull of Galloway lighthouse. Beautiful surroundings, perfect location for the 'get away from it all' experience, excellent standard of accommodation and a coffee shop selling remarkable food nearby....what more can you ask for? Even managed to see a pod of dolphins, brilliant! Highly recommend a stay... More

Spent Christmas at Puffin, it is exquisite. Took our children 4,6 &7 who entertained themselves for the majority of time. Great accommodation, modern, clean, warm and the caretaker/manager couldn't have been more helpful. This is a remote place, ideal if you want to just get away from the world. Can't wait to go back and neither can the kids.
