Fresh cookies every day in the rooms, fresh milk served in mini milk canisters. The breakfast was perfect. Absolutely loved every minute of staying there.

The guest house is just a 1-minute drive to the P&O port (Cairnryan to Larne) and 3 minutes to the Stena Line port (Cairnryan to Belfast). A shingle beach and coastal walks are 20 yards away.

The best overnight accommodation I have experienced during all my travels around Scotland.

    The location was quiet, as we like. The host was very helpful. The facilities were amazing. It was a very comfortable room and spotlessly clean. Would highly recommend this accommodation.

    The guesthouse was in an ideal location for our short trip to the ferry terminal the next morning. Parking is plentiful and free, both on street or in a large car park opposite the Guesthouse. The room was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Breakfast was excellent and the hosts were friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend and would stay again if travelling to Ireland by ferry. Excellent value for money.
