Stranraer Gkenwhan Gardens Hotels

"It's a grand old (or middle-aged) hotel on a stunning hillside location overlooking the harbour. It has clearly seen better days, and seems to be struggling somewhat. This does not stop me from staying there, as I want to support them, and it's a good location for the ferry at Cairnryan. It's clean, has a lift/elevator and rooms with harbour views. Because it's a big old building, we had to wait quite a while for hot water to reach our rooms for showers. Staff are exceptionally friendly. From the receptionist who checked us in after our ferry arrived late, to the dining room waitress at breakfast - which was cooked to order and delicious."

"The room was beautifully clean and freshly decorated. The staff were very welcoming and accommodating and really kind to my dogs. Thank you!"

"Excellent for a short stay, good value for money and central to the seafront."

"We arrived slightly earlier but Derek had left the house key in door for us to let ourselves in. He called later to check everything was OK and showed us how to open the hottub lid . It was all ready to jump in and very warm. Cottage was modern and everything needed was provided, towels, bathrobes for hottub, cutlery and plates etc. Excellent front garden for playing football with our son. Overall couldn't fault it and had a relaxing stay."

"Electric charging was easy and a great bonus as some in the area were not working. The view from the suite was great, especially as the storm raged able to watch the massive waves crashing."

"We had a lovely stay at Daisy Cottage, the house was clean and perfect for our family. "

"Yes very welcoming very quick responce to hot tub issue.very happy would recomend and stay again"

"What can I say about Kinvara except WOW! It was FANTASTIC! We stayed for 4 nights, and because Kinvara is so spacious and disabled accessible we were able to bring my Dad, who has Parkinson's and, with that, mobility issues. Being a bungalow with step free ramped access and having the grab rails in the bathrooms and the wet room was just perfect for our needs. We had 5 adults and 3 kids and there was more than enough room for all of us. All the rooms were so spacious with plenty of storage for clothes, and the dining area was just beautiful, overlooking the garden and the field of sheep behind. The kids loved the garden and the play area with the pool table and dart board and loved sitting playing board games in the dining room with all the natural light coming in. The house heated up really quickly too when the central heating was on which was great for Dad. It was super cosy for him sitting in the living room reading his paper or watching tv while we prepared dinner- and the wee hatch through to the kitchen meant we could still see him and he could shout if he needed anything! It honestly ticked all the boxes for us, we are booking again for next year!! The location is excellent, a great play park 2mins from the property and a short walk to shops and into town. Such a beautiful place to stay and lovely owner! Every one of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kinvara. Highly recommend!!"

"This was our second holiday there, so we knew what to expect. A well kept property which offers excellent facilities and privacy. There’s lots to do in the surrounding area.We will be coming again"
