Cottage vacation rentals in Stranraer

Lakeside Cottage is beautiful, peaceful, steeped in history & easy to access once you know where it is, we drove past it 3 times lol. We were greeted with gorgeous fresh flowers in each room & a very tasty bottle of prosecco. Most Definitely will be going back at some point in the near future & can't recommend it enough as a quiet getaway - listening to the river Ayr was blissful!!

We had a lovely stay with our 3 dogs at heron view, we enjoyed the spacious living area and comfortable beds. The utility space was a great nook for the dogs if they were wet from walking. Lovely local pub (the Masonic) with friendly people and bar staff. The hot tub was a massive bonus! Thanks Donald We will be back!

Beautiful little cottage. Loads to do without leaving the front door including hot tub, fire and BBQ. Area and garden is stunning! Jane was very helpful and communicative on check in and check out, very friendly! Clean and as described in photos.

The Conifers is a wonderful, peaceful place to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring Dumfries and Galloway and coming back to such a wonderful relaxing spot each day. The hot tub water was checked daily and chemicals added if required which really impressed me. The lodges and cabins have plenty of room between them so you can be assured of privacy. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend staying here and we will be back.

Gorgeous place with beautiful scenery! Rebecca and Dave were super attentive and helpful. Would 100% recommend this place.

The most relaxing stay we have had. Hidden away from the hustle of the town, this was just bliss for a peaceful getaway

The cottage was the perfect base for us to explore the local area & catch up with nearby family. The cottage is well equipped & surrounded by a beautiful landscape. Thank you for a wonderful stay. 💛

Had a great stay at Lilac Cottage, we were staying there as our son’s wedding was at Orangetree House, lovely cosy sitting room, well stocked kitchen and the cottage was spotless. Unfortunately we didn’t get the full benefit as it would be a great location for anyone to explore the Ards peninsula and across to Strangford and Mourne Country and come back to relax in the garden. Janet had also left us some ‘goodies’ and even Pooh bags for the dog! Apologies I took her for a walk and still have them 🙈 would 100% recommend and all being well will use again

100% recommendation for this property. Fantastic hosts, superb accommodation and fantastic surroundings. Looking forward to returning in the near future.

Lovely peaceful stay in beautiful grounds. Lots of walks on the private grounds including walk to their private beach. Very tranquil and special place. We did a few day trips including Ayr PortPatrick some local areas for nice restaurants. My son loves football and we went to see local town Stranraer play on his birthday and they won. We saw lots of deer and nature everywhere. Children loved the zip wire and there was a games room which we didn’t manage to get to. Kate and Angus couldn’t have been more helpful, lots of great recommendations and wonderful welcome hamper which was delicious and appreciated. Beautiful place and private grounds bigger than expected. We were sad to leave and miss the lovely scenery. Thanks so much for a memorable trip.

Our host, Karen, was perfect. She was polite, friendly and extremely helpful. Her property was stunning and had everything we needed to be a a home from home. Her particular attention to our dogs needs really stood out. We were welcomed by milk in the fridge, fresh fruit, treats and toys for the dog and a plethora of leaflets books and dining out ideas for the area. Loved the little touches like notes on the OS maps…it really is the little details that count. We had an amazing stay in this beautiful and peaceful property. Creetown had so much to offer in such a welcoming and subtle way, everyone in the community was friendly and took the time to talk about places to go, local history…and even helped us deer spot literally meters from the front door. Perfect week away.

It has been a pleasure to stay in Zan's house. Very comfortable, clean and makes you feel at home. The children loved the horses, chickens and all the animals. It was the perfect spot to recharge our batteries

Gorgeous rural location. Very friendly host & family. Cottage was much larger than expected. We had a lovely stay.

The most magical place to stay. From the moment we booked we received the warmest of welcomes and it just got better and better. The Lodge was pristine, the facilities top drawer and the surroundings breathtaking. Truly one of the best AirBnB stays we’ve ever had. Loved it and will definitely be back.

This property is ideally placed. Quiet, well equipped and comfortable. Lovely view of the sea and hills when walking through the town. Just was really helpful.

We had the most wonderful stay at Blackside Cottage and can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how much care and attention Andrew and Elizabeth put into making the place welcoming, comfortable, and beautifully presented. The cottage itself is immaculate – stylishly decorated, cozy, and fully equipped with everything we needed. The kitchen was a real highlight – far better stocked than most places we’ve stayed – and the log-burning fire made our evenings incredibly relaxing. The setting is just magical. Peaceful, private, and surrounded by stunning countryside, it was the perfect place to switch off and unwind. The freestanding bath was a real luxury – perfect for a long soak after a day of exploring. Andrew and Elizabeth were brilliant hosts. Everything was smooth from booking to check-out. This place is a real gem!

There was everything we could possibly need in the cottage which is so tastefully furnished including two reclining chairs in the conservatory which is where we spent most of our time. Even on the days it rained we could relax in the conservatory, reading or doing a jigsaw, and unwind. Gina and her husband are very friendly and helpful, making us feel at home. If we could give it six stars we would!

Drumla Cottage is a beautiful place and the views are stunning. Catherine is very friendly and couldn't have been more helpful throughout our stay. Everything that we needed was available at the cottage and it could not be faulted.

Accommodation was booked for colleagues for business purposes. Everything was exactly as described and suited out needs perfectly. Very friendly host and communicative hosts. Would definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay; peaceful, comfortable and relaxing.

We loved staying at Louise's place for a night as we travelled up the west coast. Check in was easy and everything was nice and clean when we arrived. The garden in the back is lovely and the two woodburners give a lovely cottage feel to the place.

The cottage is full of character and very cosy. It’s in a great location with fantastic walks on the doorstep. Bea was at the cottage when we arrived. She was super helpful with advice and very friendly. She was the perfect host. Would definitely recommend any one staying here.

Dot and Dougie were excellent hosts. The cottage is spacious with lovely decor. We felt at home straight away. Delightful garden and views across the valley. Lovely walk from just across the road by a river and gorge. We'd certainly want to stay here again if we come back to Arran.

Fantastic cottage in a great location with fantastic views over Campbeltown loch. Really well equipped and clean and lovely welcome pack. Would recommend for anyone wanting to explore Campbeltown and Kintyre. Thanks.
