Top Stranraer Hotel Reviews

2 Bedroom Lodge, Beach Location, Fabulous Views

10/10 Excellent

"I made the mistake of not reading all the details supplied and arrived without towels so please remember to take them with you. The surroundings were so relaxing and clean, the beach was fantastic the Humans and the Dog had a wonderful time so much so we have boked for next year."

3 Bedroom Lodge, Close to Beach, Stunning Views, includes hot tub

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay at the lodge. It was clean, quiet and comfortable, with great views. It's conveniently placed to be able to explore sites and attractions in the area. Only suggestions would be to look at the flooring which seemed to be giving way in some places. Also, we didn't use the hot tub as the welcome booklet said it needed to be cleaned after use but it wasn't clear how to clean it. Otherwise, all good."

The Portpatrick Hotel by Compass Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was in an amazing location. The view was INCREDIBLE. It is a very old property but they do a good job of trying to keep it clean, maintained and updated. It wasn’t the Ritz Carlton by any means, but it was good enough for what we needed. Close to an AMAZING golf course (walking distance) which also had a very challenging par 3 course. The staff were very helpful and we would stay here again. Food was just ok but breakfast was included in our stay so it was fine."

Spacious House With Amazing Sea View

10/10 Excellent

"If you want to be away from it all, this is the place. There are more cows and linnets than humans for miles and the views of the bay at any time of day are just stunning. We loved being able to see the deer, hares and birds of prey in the adjoining fields - with the added bonus of spotting the odd seal or three relaxing in the tranquil waters of the bay or lazing on the rocks on an evening. We also lost (so!) many hours being entranced by the families of House Martins whizzing past the windows like aerial acrobats feeding their (incredibly cute) young under the eves. The house is really well equipped, the beds are comfy and the showers certainly do not lack any power! But the views of the bay from the main lounge are just fantastic and the main selling point. Elspeth was a great host and very helpful/responsive to all our queries. All in all, it was a wonderful week. 100% recommend."

The Harbour House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Ideally situated overlooking the harbour, this hotel offers sea views from its' restaurant and some bedrooms. I was, unexpectedly, given a self-catering apartment next door which meant that i had plenty of space with a lounge/kitchen area in addition to the bathroom and bedroom(s). The only problem was that the door into my apartment was really difficult to push open, hand and foot were required. This was certainly because of the heat, but I was surprised that cleaners etc. hadn't noticed and reported this before. I did report it but as I only had a one-night stay it couldn't be rectified during my visit. The food was excellent and the waitresses were good."

Corsewall Lighthouse Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic wild location - remote, but not too far from Stranraer. Some great local walks, and sunsets. The hotel is quiet, small and unique. Our dog was very welcome, and got extra treats for breakfast. The food was amazing - surprising, given the remote location. Room was clean and spacious, and the staff were all very friendly. There's an EV charger just next to the hotel, which was a welcome bonus. Definitely recommended."
