Great hotel

As soon as we walked into the hotel we were faced with a stunning view over Portpatrick from the huge window in reception. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Our room was bigger than expected and had a balcony with a view over Portpatrick and out to sea.

The property is well placed with fine views. The staff were excellent and the rooms and meals were very good. Straight forward short walk to the town and sea front but it is steep for anyone with mobility problems. Great location for a short break.

If hotels could get gems, this would be a diamond

Great hotel with spectacular views from our room with a balcony and in restaurant, only downside was broken loo seat which was a small inconvenience. Comfy bed, good cleanliness and staff were very friendly and efficient. Food was delicious for dinner and breakfast. Definitely would go back again for longer than 1 night next time. Highly recommend it.
