The Waterfront Hotel & Bistro

8/10 Good

"Friendly staff, room was clean and adequate, no problem in getting extra beverages, breakfast very good, bed comfortable , bathroom and little small, cabinet above small sink to low when trying to wash or shave , but got on with it and did not spoil our stay, very good shower, lovely view from window overlooking harbour, enjoyed our stay over 3 nights would go back 😀"

Glenapp Castle

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay at the Castle - the room was beautiful as was the food. The staff in the restaurant and those who welcomed us were amazing. Only disappointment was on check out we asked the history of the castle and were told by a very disinterested staff member to "look it up online"! We thought they would have been very proud to talk about the history and when it was built etc. Other than that we loved it!"

Fernhill Hotel

8/10 Good

"The view from the hotel over Port Patrick is lovely and we spent a pleasant evening having dinner and enjoying the view"

Woodland Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay,great owners and staff!!!thanks!!!"

The Harbour House Hotel

8/10 Good

"It is right next to the water and has a nice position and view of the rest of the small town (village). We would stay again if we had to, as we couldn't find a place to stay in the actual town of Stranraer the Inn is located in Portpatrick). It was adequate for the price. We ate somewhere else, but the restaurant seemed busy. It was also pretty quiet for a pub/restaurant in the summer, which we appreciated."

Lakeview Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"The host was friendly and attentive and the breakfast was marvelous! The rooms we had were clean and spacious. Will definitely stay there again!"

The Thistle

10/10 Excellent

"Good stay"
