ISLE OF WHITHORN

A few kilometres further south of Withorn, along the B7004, lies this charming tiny harbour, built astride an island, attached to the land by a dyke, hence its name Isle of Withorn. Here you can see the remains of the 13th century St Ninian's Chapel and, further along, St Ninian's Cave, where he used to go to pray. Be careful though, this is not easy to find and you will have to go to the hamlet of Kidsdale, west of Isle of Whithorn, to find the way there.
