The owner was very friendly and welcoming. This was a great stop to recharge our batteries before continuing our trip. Our room was clean and bed was super comfy with a nice view at the loch. We had a very tasty dinner and the breakfast was delicious as well (homemade meals prepared by the owner, who is a very good cook). For us it was 10 out of 10 experience and we would highly recommend it.

We had such a lovely stay here before catching the ferry in the morning. Pat made us feel right at home with a beautiful breakfast, a lift to the ferry and all around perfect hospitality! Pat was even kind enough to help me get my passport back!!! We cannot thank you enough for our wonderful stay!

    The facility was clean and comfortable.

    The facility was clean and comfortable. We only stayed one night because we were catching the Ferry to Ireland the next day which is close by. We were able to find an outside Laundry on the property of a Petrol station just a 10 minute drive which was unique to us!!

    Homey, friendly and immaculately clean accommodations. Pat was so helpful. The driveway is a bit hard to see on the way by but the place is scenic and convenient for leaving on the ferry. Ate a great meal at the Custom House pub.

    The location is great, especially for access to the ferry ports. We visited Logan Botanic Gardens, Glenwhan Gardens and Castle Kennedy which are all within a short drive from Cairnryan. We had a lovely meal at Henry's Bay House restaurant in Stranraer. Also had a nice snack from Subway in Stranraer and delicious soup with home made bread at Glenwhan Gardens. Would avoid trying to find somewhere to eat in Stranraer town as there are few restaurants that looked appealing.

    It was where we caught the ferry to Ireland and if ever going again I would definitely use Cairnryan. We used a restaurant by the name of Henry’s Bay 10 mins away and it was very nice would recommend they did a teatime special that was excellent value for money and the staff were very attentive. The route to Ayr from Cairmryan has a beautiful coast way and well worth a drive to. There were some breathtaking views.

    Superb location for the ferries. Every possible facility needed exceeding that of a major city hotel stayed in the previous night. Ok, so there is no pool nor fitness centre but there is a multi multi channel tv many towels and bathrobes, great breakfast and a warm welcome. We'll be back.
