Little Ireland is a gem of a property, a great find for us and our 2 dogs who were also right at home here. The house is beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean (we would easily have believed we were the first people to have stayed due to the high standard of maintenance). The lovely hosts really have thought of everything, providing all we needed for a fabulous stay. They were also so helpful and when we messaged with a query they replied with an answer straight away. There was so much space for us all and we had a fabulous time (also really enjoyed a lovely meal in Papa Rab's!) Thank you for a great stay, we wouldn't hesitate to book again!

Stranraer suffered with the loss of the ferry terminal , like most towns the centre needs attention. empty shops and boarded up premises are bringing down almost all towns and cities across the UK and Stranraer is no exception.

Stranraer is an interesting place to visit. Parts of it have got very run down but you can see they are trying to improve the town. We spent a lovey day following the Town Centre trail we got from the Tourist Office.

There's almost zero reason to visit Stranraer itself; no ferries run from here now. I found one decent shop of interest, the little museam was ok and free. The proximity to the mull of galloway and the rhins was my reason for staying. The accomodation choice was not great, but Royal Hotel was the best option

Stranraer is a little rundown after its fortunes were affected by the relocation of the ferry along the road to Cairnryan. Much of the harbour is run down with tatty parking bays for ferry vehicles. However there are hidden gems, the swan lido and park by the water, an ACTUAL tourist information office, helpful public library. Decent if rather retro restaurants - Chinese, pizza oven. Museum and castle to visit although check opening hours.

Our apartment faced the ocean and it was a great place to rest and relax. We were nearing the end of a one month tour of the UK and Ireland and enjoyed the comforts that the apartment provided. Also, the communication with Colin was very helpful and timely.

This is a hidden gem. It is near the town but not in it. It has breath taking views overlooking Cairnryan loch. The owners were so friendly. The breakfast was really good too. There was a swimming pool and a hot tub. Car parking was spacious too.
