Nice room with a fantastic view of the harbour from the huge windows and balcony. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the food in the restaurant was very good (although the haggis in the breakfast was rather sloppy). Would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay and would love to go back some time. The views were beautiful and it’s a tranquil setting. The food was good, the hotel team were excellent and it’s conveniently located close to the harbour (although note, if you have mobility issues, there are steps). Pets are £10/ night extra which is fairly typical. The only thing that could be improved were very cheap somewhat flimsy plastic toilet seats, which felt a bit like unnecessary cost-cutting.

Food was excellent but a little over seasoned for my wife. The broken window latch still needs attention as well as a dripping shower nozzle. Beautiful location and the waterfront was delightful. We enjoyed our two night stay

The hotel was recommended to me by family and I emailed them the 2nd day of my stay to thank them. The hotel was excellent, a great location and outstanding view over Portpatrick. The meals were very good. The hotel was very clean and obviously well maintained with all amenities. The staff were outstanding, nothing was too much trouble and they were very helpful and polite. I will be going g back and will recommend this hotel to friends

On arrival, I was upgraded. The lovely room was large and had panoramic views of the Harbour in the town. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the Tea/Coffee facilities very good. Breakfast was excellent with a self-service cereal and fruit start then cooked Breakfast to order. The catering Staff were very friendly and helpful. Other than at check-in, I saw no other Staff.
