Lovely guest house with a park and water right out the front door. Welcoming and warm hosts with attention to detail and helpful. I appreciated the little details that helped it feel like a home away from home. A very generous breakfast in the morning. I would definitely stay again.

We are a family of 4 traveling through 4 countries for 2 weeks. This was our favorite! Upon checkin, Alan met us and showed us to our room. He was so friendly and welcoming. We had the family suite. It was so beautiful and comfortable! Each kid had their own twin bed, and they loved it! Windows opened to hear the seagulls and cars below, and let in the cool sea breeze. There was plenty of space to move around. The bathroom was very clean and perfect for us. We ordered the full breakfast the next morning - what a delight! Elaina was very nice and made sure we pronounced “Edinburgh” correctly before leaving, haha! This place is walkable to everything in town you’d want to see. We hope to visit again one day.

Small ensuite room but beautifully decorated with modern fittings. Very comfortable and clean. Excellent breakfast in a lovely dining room and a very pleasant & helpful host. Free street parking just outside. Great location for Stranraer town centre and for the Cairnryan ferry port about 10 mins drive away. Excellent value.

Geräumiges Zimmer, neues Bad, Frühstück wurde nach Wunsch zubereitet und war super lecker. Es ist ein kleines Gästehaus und aufgrund des Preis- Leistungsverhältnisses sehr zu empfehlen! Das Umfeld entspricht den Erwartungen an eine Hafenstadt, die schon einmal bessere Tage gesehen hat. Es gibt aber trotzdem ausreichend Möglichkeiten preiswert zu essen. Die Anwohner waren sehr freundlich zu uns Reisenden.
