We stayed at the Lakeview Guesthouse the night before taking the ferry to Ireland. Family rooms are normally quite difficult to come across and finding one reasonably priced is even harder. In my opinion the Lakeview is exceptional value for money. In all honesty it's the best family room accommodation we've ever stayed in. I was met by the owner,... More

This was my first experience of a B&B for which I was pleasantly surprised. I booked here at the last minute after stepping off the ferry and deciding I was too tired to drive home (400 miles). I had a single room which was compact but comfortable with a TV and free WIFI which was very handy. The room and... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Lakeview Guesthouse and especially appreciated the extra care and help of the owners. Nothing was too much trouble and they couldn't have been more helpful and nice. The rooms were lovely and clean with an extra touch of welcoming amenities. We enjoyed a lovely full irish breakfast and had a lovely tea at... More

We booked about 10 days before our arrival and asked for a quiet room not facing the street. When we arrived, we were given a room facing the rather noisy street. We queried this and were told they were fully booked and all rooms allocated. We were also given a room with shared bathroom facilities, something that was not apparent... More

I am sorry you feel you were not given a proper description of the room you had booked, I have copied the room description of the website of the company you booked with and and it clearly states that the bathroom facilites are shared. Family room with bathroom right outside bedroom, the bathroom is shared with one other person. Centrally... More

We stayed at Lakewiew last summer and have just returned from another visit this weekend. My mum, daughter and myself spent three nights at Lakeview while visiting family in Stranraer. The rooms are clean and the bathrooms spotless. Lovely breakfasts every morning and the owners always go that wee bit further for you. We had a shopping day in Belfast... More

Lakeview Guest House exceeded my expectations. We were staying in the guest house overnight prior to getting the ferry at Stranraer the next morning. The guest house is very convenient to the (Stena Line) ferry terminal. The owners were very polite and helpful, the room was spacious and clean and the food was great. The owners actually upgraded us to... More

Good room, great bed, good location, sea front, but not at all noisy. Parking outside. Very good breakfast. Owner did a ring around for me when she couldn't give me a room the following week. Nice to single women business travellers which makes a pleasant change. More

Stayed here in the summer for a night as a stop over for the ferry. My partner stayed in a different guest house a few doors up, and it was me and one of the boys in this one. We had a nice en suite room, clean, tidy...friendly owners. Breakfast was good and an all round good stay. If you... More
