It was my third stay at the Lakeview Guest House and I definitely would recommend it as a great place to stay at. Elaine was as friendly as ever and the location is perfect for both walking along the shore and exploring nearby attractions.

The room that I was staying at was on the small side, but it was manageable. A very comfy bed more than made up for it anyway.

"Lakeview, Stranraer's hidden gem!"

10.0

I was contacted by Elaine several days before my stay to confirm my arrival time and provide some travel directions and parking guidance. When I arrived, I managed to park on the street more or less at the front door. Not that parking was ever going to be an issue with a huge public car park directly across the road with both car park and on street parking being free. Upon arrival, I was met by Alan who kindly got me booked in and shown to my room. This place has a Tardis like affect! Not much to look at from the outside but you're eyes are immediately opened when you get inside. Not what I was expecting and pleasantly surprised. I was travelling for work and had a single room with ensuite shower room. The room was clean, spacious enough for my needs and the bed was very comfortable. I slept well throughout my 2 night stay. Plenty of complementary tea & coffee in the room as well as a small decanter of whisky if you're so inclined! A very nice touch although I didn't partake! Decoration throughout, including my room has a feel of a higher end Scottish themed hotel. It was quirky and homely. Breakfast was nothing less than fantastic and cooked to perfection and both Elaine & Alan were very friendly and engaging.The perfect hosts. For overalls value and just about everything else you could need for a stay in Stranraer, you'll be hard pressed to get better than Lakeview Guest House.

There was nothing not to like. This place exceeded expectations.
