Top Ardwell Hotel Reviews

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."

Lakeview Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, lovely owners, great breakfast, comfortable bed, easy safe parking outside."

The Portpatrick Hotel by Compass Hospitality

8/10 Good

"We had a nice 3 days at the Hotel. Staff helpful. Hotel nice and clean . A lovely view out of windows."

2 Bedroom Lodge, Beach Location, Fabulous Views

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing property with spectacular views. Great communication with host had no issues. The local village is in walking distance with good convenience store. Had everything you need. The pubs do great beer and food. Brilliant stay."

The Haven nestling in an idyllic setting on the shore of Luce Bay in Galloway a

10/10 Excellent

"Had a great week in The Haven , the weather was fab and the ocean view is right on your doorstep! Wonderful place to relax and watch the world go by. Home from Home comfort."

The Galloway Steading- The Fox's Den couples retreat cabin with Hot tub

10/10 Excellent

"Amazingly relaxed setup, lovely grounds, fantastic quality room and extras. The wife and I had an absolute blast with our dog for our anniversary. The hot tub was the star of our stay! Could not fault the place, even if we tried. Only tiny downside was a dog poop from a previous visitor had not been cleaned up prior to our check-in, which didn't bother us much as we had to pick our own up anyway lol, but can see how that would be very off-putting to others.Anyway, would definitely recommend this stay to anyone looking to unplug for a while in a beautiful spot with fantastic views. The honesty shop was also a nice touch."

Spacious House With Amazing Sea View

10/10 Excellent

"If you want to be away from it all, this is the place. There are more cows and linnets than humans for miles and the views of the bay at any time of day are just stunning. We loved being able to see the deer, hares and birds of prey in the adjoining fields - with the added bonus of spotting the odd seal or three relaxing in the tranquil waters of the bay or lazing on the rocks on an evening. We also lost (so!) many hours being entranced by the families of House Martins whizzing past the windows like aerial acrobats feeding their (incredibly cute) young under the eves. The house is really well equipped, the beds are comfy and the showers certainly do not lack any power! But the views of the bay from the main lounge are just fantastic and the main selling point. Elspeth was a great host and very helpful/responsive to all our queries. All in all, it was a wonderful week. 100% recommend."

2 bedroom accommodation in Ardwell, near Stranraer

10/10 Excellent

"Ardwell Park is a perfect holiday cottage, very compact, warm and comfortable, spotlessly clean and well provided with everything . I would recommend it to anyone. It is beautifully situated ,very quiet and peaceful with many places of interest to visit in the surrounding area"

The Kenmuir Arms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Kenmuir Arms hotel. Located in a wee picturesque village we found the staff friendly and accommodating. Room one was very clean with a very comfortable king-sized bed and the shower had great water pressure. Highly recommend the creative food prepared by international Chef-Patron Christopher Dougan (recently awarded in February 2025 Scotland's Dining Discovery of the Year and 5 AA Gold Stars and 2 AA Rosettes). Every meal was creatively prepared with local ingredients and fine dining flair, yet not overly pretentious. Chef was very accommodating for my request for gluten-free tasting menu at dinner. Every dish was delicious and it was a delight to not know what dish was coming next. The full Scottish breakfast with homemade sausage, black pudding, and haggis was a great way to start each day. The pub had selections of local beer and spirits. We were visiting the area to see Sam Heughan’s Galloway Distillery. It was a treat every afternoon to have drinks made with Harbor Hills Gin and Sassanach Vodka on the patio near a babbling brook and a stone bridge."
