There are nice scenic spots to visit near / around Stranraer, such as Castle Kennedy gardens, Port Logan, Logan House estate whose owner donated part of their gardens to become today’s Stranraer Logan Botanic Garden. You can also visit Castle St John in the town centre, as well as the museum. You can even come to join us for African drumming fun every fortnightly Thursday ! I myself travel 3.5 hours every fortnight on Thursday to practise African drum with this group whose drumming standard is very very high ! Always great fun ! That’s why I am willing to travel 7 hours door to door for my drumming fun every two weeks ! And, although I bring my own home-cooked food here, I also eat at some nice bistros and cafes.Su-ChenUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0

A small, interesting working town on the west bank of Loch Ryan, visited right at the beginning of the season. Henry's Bay House Restaurant is excellent for food and the Ryan Centre has a swimming pool as well as a theatre/cinema with a good programme. There is a great view of the loch and Stranraer is ideally situated for exploring all of Dumfries and Galloway. The people are very friendly, helpful and welcoming.

Stranraer is a ferry port with good bus links to Dumfries.
Stranraer is a ferry port with good bus links to Dumfries. The tow, itself had a "sedate ' feel to it. Traffic was slow and polite. Lots of fish and chips shops. The central castle / tower house is the only place of interest and museum. Famous centre for curling with rink open in winter months.

- From DKK 657.13 per night8.9Scored 8.9FabulousRated fabulous· 989 reviewsThe owner was absolutely lovely and accommodated our early check-in as we had just driven two hours with two small children. There was a Park with a Cafe just across the street from the hotel, which was perfect when you have little ones that want to stretch their legs or go for a walk by the seaside. Very walkable to local restaurants or the grocery store. We would definitely stay here again or recommend it to anyone visiting the area. It was about a 15 minute drive to the ports as we were taking a ferry the next day so it was very convenient.
RachealUnited States - 9.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 518 reviewsLarge room with good facilities and a beautiful view. Chairs and table by the window to look out from. Our room was cleaned and replenished during the day. Our host was very accommodating and happy to make an early breakfast which was very tasty. We visited the area to go to the Wee Aird Dairy Farm which was amazing. There are some other wonderful places to visit near Stranraer - Logan Botanical Garden, Mull of Galloway and Castle Kennedy Gardens. We had glorious weather too!
