Overlooking the water in the centre of little Cairnryan, this is a modern bungalow with two comfortable en-suite rooms. The double has a lovely outlook over the bay, but it's the genuinely welcoming hosts – old hands at excellent B&B, and providing pick-up/drop-off at the nearby ferry – who make this a special experience. Breakfast features the odd home-grown treat.
