Lakeview Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Super location to visit the local town or enjoy a walk in the park/along the beach. The hosts were helpful and on hand to support. Beds were comfortable, the room was warm and spacious. Breakfast was lovely and there was ample parking. I can safely say, I'd visit again."

North West Castle Hotel

The Portpatrick Hotel by Compass Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"Great location on top of the hill overlooking the village. Wild & windy night but slept well. Overnight stay. Comfortable bed & clean room. Bathroom could be updated as we had a shower over the bath. Dinner in the restaurant was nice. Second visit to Portpatrick as it is a favourite place. Would recommend."

Fernhill Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely location with great views over Portpatrick. It was such a wet day and we were delighted when we were able to have our room a little bit earlier than the check in time of 3pm, even more so, when our room was upgraded to a balcony room. As soon as you enter the hotel you are stunned by the terrific view over Portpatrick at the reception and then again from our lovely, bright spacious and very clean bedroom. Loved having the bath and powerful shower. We enjoyed a drink in the comfortable lounge before going for a walk. We enjoyed our dinner, pate, chicken and mushroom pie and fish and chips. The breakfast next morning was even better with the added addition of fresh fruit salad to the selection of cereals etc. My husband had the Fernhill Grill and I had the Eggs Benedict. The eggs were cooked to perfection! Staff all very pleasant. Thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay and would highly recommend this hotel. Thank you."

A perfect coastal escape for couples and friends.

8/10 Good

"We had a good weekend at the Ballantrae food festival. A good place for touring the south west coast."
