To not be confused with boisterous Fort William within the highlands, Port William is an oasis of tranquility within the far south west of Scotland. The village is located in an idyllic spot on the Galloway coast, going through Luce Bay with views throughout to the Mull of Galloway and the Isle of Man. It boasts one among Scotland’s most evocative sculptures: “The Man” by Andrew Brown. Each customer is compelled to spend a minimum of a second standing apart The Man, gazing out to sea. All that contemplation makes you hungry, so head to The View, a group cafe linked to PIRSAC, Port William’s voluntary inshore lifeboat service. For those who like Cornwall, however hate the crowds, then you definately’ll love Port William.
