Excellent location downtown. Good jumping off point for exploring the area. And the guy that runs the place (I never did get his name) was really helpful with suggestions for places to see.

I had a lovely stay at North West Castle! The location is perfect. The staff is so incredibly friendly and welcoming! The food was delicious! The room was comfortable and had everything I needed! I did not use the pool/gm facilities, but I walked through and it was very nice!

Room was very comfortable and well appointed; TV needed a wee bit of attention but then worked perfectly (previous guest had been fiddling with it!); breakfast was one of the best cooked breakfasts I have enjoyed when staying away from home - freshly cooked to order and very tasty! A big 10/10 - eggselent!

Very cozy hotel. You could tell a lot of love and care went into the smallest detail.

Easy self-check-in, and the room was larger than many we had booked. The beds were comfy and the room was clean.

There are nice scenic spots to visit near / around Stranraer, such as Castle Kennedy gardens,
Port Logan, Logan House estate whose owner donated part of their gardens to become today’s Stranraer Logan Botanic Garden. You can also visit
Castle St John in the town centre, as well as the museum. You can even come to join us for African drumming fun every fortnightly Thursday ! I myself travel 3.5 hours every fortnight on Thursday to practise African drum with this group whose drumming standard is very very high ! Always great fun ! That’s why I am willing to travel 7 hours door to door for my drumming fun every two weeks !
And, although I bring my own home-cooked food here, I also eat at some nice bistros and cafes.

A small, interesting working town on the west bank of Loch Ryan, visited right at the beginning of the season. Henry's Bay House Restaurant is excellent for food and the Ryan Centre has a swimming pool as well as a theatre/cinema with a good programme. There is a great view of the loch and Stranraer is ideally situated for exploring all of Dumfries and Galloway. The people are very friendly, helpful and welcoming.

The people.
The people. Roy came out of his store and greeted us and then walked us to two great places to eat. At the Caslte Hotel we were treated like royality. It was before supper time so they made fixed up our table and served us in style. The food and service was wonderful. David was our taxi driver for all our stay and was also a wonderful guide to the area.

Stranraer is a ferry port with good bus links to Dumfries.
Stranraer is a ferry port with good bus links to Dumfries. The tow, itself had a "sedate ' feel to it. Traffic was slow and polite. Lots of fish and chips shops. The central castle / tower house is the only place of interest and museum. Famous centre for curling with rink open in winter months.

Absolutely highly recommend this beautiful stylish hotel,...
Absolutely highly recommend this beautiful stylish hotel, very clean, great food with a warm welcome
Excellent location on the sea front and lots of parking spaces. Beautiful reception area and staff were very welcoming and helpful. Room was very spacious with a small table and two chairs, large comfy bed and good facilities. Evening meal was lovely, very tasty and well presented with good choices; as was breakfast the next morning, absolutely perfect. The dining room is beautiful and set out nicely. The bars were both superb to have a drink and relax. Absolutely highly recommend this charming hotel, simply one of the best we have stayed in! We will definitely return!
The owner was absolutely lovely and accommodated our early check-in as we had just driven two hours with two small children. There was a Park with a Cafe just across the street from the hotel, which was perfect when you have little ones that want to stretch their legs or go for a walk by the seaside. Very walkable to local restaurants or the grocery store. We would definitely stay here again or recommend it to anyone visiting the area. It was about a 15 minute drive to the ports as we were taking a ferry the next day so it was very convenient.
The location is perfect, quiet with stunning views. Ideal for either popping into Stranraer for something to eat/drink, or local shops, also ideally located if your planning to catch the ferry to Ireland, and what a stop over first.
The rooms are well laid out, with plenty of thought given to presentation, also having plenty of storage space, and the breakfast is fantastic with plenty of choices depending on what you want
We liked everything. The accommodation was immaculate. The attention to detail and the thought that had gone into providing what guests would enjoy to have in their room (including biscuits & water every day, wine glasses & bottle opener, a fridge and bathrobes etc), was terrific. We have stayed in many hotels that have not come up anywhere near to the standards of Thornbank House.
Really good stay in Portpatrick. Ian was a great host. The lodges are an ideal base for exploring the south west of Scotland. The lodges cater well for a family and provide the usual mod cons that will keep the kids happy. It’s an added bonus that they’re also dog friendly. Great views and is in a beautiful part of the world. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
Had a fantastic stay at The Craignelder Hotel. The room was large, as was the en suite and bed was huge and comfy. The food great, plentiful and very reasonably priced. As for the staff, they were brilliant, very helpful, especially were to visit in the area.
The area has stunning scenery, and plenty of places to visit. Well worth a visit.
Great pricing and had everything needed for the perfect base camp of the getaway. The additional discount to their sister business, The Swan Inn. Staff being extremely warm, welcoming and friendly.
The area in which the aparment is situated as well as the free parking near by. Easy to get to.
Some 5star hotels I’ve done over the years could take a lesson from this hotel.
Had to leave early for personal reasons but, welcoming, great locals in the communal bar, treated like a friend, can’t fault anything!
Central location, cheery and fun.
Top stuff!
Huge hotel! With one night didn’t have time to experience all of the bars at the hotel! Nice room with view of the water. Quiet with all the necessities needed. Had a lift and an available wheelchair for my husband. Only 15 minutes from the Stena Ferry line.
Brilliant location if you have a car. Stranraer is a couple of miles away for food shopping, and south is some fabulous little towns like Portpatrick. The scenery was amazing, and the cottage is very near the Southern Uplands Way walking route.
Lovely clean apartment with great views over the harbour. Free parking close by is a plus too. Everything is provided for the stay including a nice big smart tv, we’d surely come back here if returning to this part of Scotland
Wilma was really welcoming and helped with parking right by the door. My room was at the back of the building, quiet and private. The hotel location was easy to find and close to main routes for ferry.
The lovely welcome from Sandy. He made us very welcome. We went to the cenotaph to pay our respects and the pipes and drums where lovely. Stranraer is a lovely place.
very clean and well equipped. Host Annemarie was easy to contact. Very quiet and fairly near amenities. Would not normally look at mobile home but is a good option.
