    Beautiful guest house, very tastefully and classy furnishings, loved the woodwork. Excellent breakfast, fabulous hosts, and a great location for staying the night before heading off to Northern Ireland on the ferry. Would highly recommend, excellent value for money.

    Perfect bed & breakfast overlooking the lake. A delicious cooked breakfast by Brendan who was a great host. The view from the room was amazing and very memorable. It’s in a lovely, quiet location on the edge Stranraer. The room was huge, beautifully-decorated and with an enormous, comfortable bed. We would definitely stay here again!

    The rooms were lovely...beds were very comfortable, the rooms were spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated, and they are well equipped. There was an excellent amount of choice for breakfast, and it was delicious. Elaine, the host was so welcoming and friendly, and the guest house is in a great location (only 15 mins from the Cairnryan ferry port.) Lakeview Guesthouse has everything that you need for a wonderful stay.
