We loved everything. We wish we were staying longer than 2 nights. The rooms were perfect, everything was so clean, the beds were comfy and the service from the owner was outstanding! Fresh cookies every day in the rooms, fresh milk served in mini milk canisters. The breakfast was perfect. Absolutely loved every minute of staying there.

Lodge Cabin with Fabulous Views - Farm Holiday is situated in Stranraer. The property has garden views. The apartment also features free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests.

The spacious apartment has 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a flat-screen TV with streaming services, a dining area, a fully equipped kitchen, and a terrace with sea views. Guests can take in the ambience of the surroundings from an outdoor dining area or keep themselves warm by the fireplace on colder days. For added privacy, the accommodation features a private entrance.

I had an absolutely delightful stay at the log cabin. Ian and Kay proved to be exceptional hosts, going the extra mile to ensure our comfort. Ian even paid us a visit shortly after our arrival, ensuring that everything was to our satisfaction and providing clear guidance on how to reach him should we require any assistance. The seclusion of these cabins is nothing short of perfect, offering serene views of the sea, with the added bonus of glimpses of Belfast's city lights twinkling in the distance during the night. The west-facing position of the cabins is a true highlight, providing us with breathtaking sunsets that felt like a daily gift from nature. What truly impressed me was the thoughtful attention to detail within the cabins themselves. They were equipped with everything one could possibly need, from reliable WIFI for staying connected to modern hot showers that added a touch of luxury to the rustic charm of the log cabin experience. In summary, my stay at this log cabin was a wonderful escape from the everyday hustle and bustle, thanks to the warm hospitality of Ian and Kay, the idyllic setting, and the well-appointed cabins. I can't wait to return for another dose of tranquility and those stunning sunsets. Highly recommended!

    The cottage was in a beautiful, tranquil location and well positioned to visit places of interest such as Logan Botanic Gardens, Castle Kennedy Gardens, the Mull of Galloway with its fabulous cliffs and lighthouse and local coastal villages like Portpatrick. It was also a very easy journey into the Forest of Galloway and the Galloway mountains and Loch Trool. The cottage was spotless and extremely well equipped and the hosts were friendly and helpful.

    The place is absolutely enjoyable. Looking at the building from the outside might get one mistaking it by just another old repainted building in a sleepy village. But you go inside and you will be amazed with the quality of the premises, the comfort of the rooms that look like they have been refurbished only the day before and the attention to detail from Jo, who served the breakfast. Five stars!!

    Beautiful house with perfect surroundings for a blissful escape with family. Warm welcome from Marie with lovely touches such as delicious freshly baked bread, flowers and wine which was much appreciated. The house was spotless and the luxurious bedding and towels didn't go unnoticed as well as the gorgeous furnishings. Our children enjoyed feeding the cows grass and watching the nesting swallows feeding their young. We have stayed in many holiday houses but this was by far our favourite and hope to be back in the future.Thank you!

    The cottage was very cosy and peaceful. It had everything we could possibly have wanted, including well equipped kitchen, TV with loads of channels for cosy evenings in, a fab shower. It was spotlessly clean. I have never been in a holiday home as clean as this was. Our hosts were really lovely, friendly and helpful The location was beautiful and though it was away from it all, we were still able to walk into town (good exercise). The cottage has a small conservatory looking onto a courtyard which was a real sun trap.
