We were staying in Port Logan but the local pub/hotel was closed for repairs so we travelled the few miles to Sandhead for a few meals at the Tigh na Mara. We had been to the Restaurant some years ago and the meals were very good then. Again we were ot disappointed. The food is absolutely excellent. We ate a... More

We stayed at this hotel the night before travelling to Northern Ireland. The location is fantastic, we arrived an hour before check in and where allowed into our room. The welcome was great. The food was superb, fantastic quality. The only slight complaint was the bathroom door would not close properly, a 10 minute job from a joiner and this... More

Having stayed and eaten dinner in the Tigh Na Mara Hotel in Sandhead south of Stranraer recently with my wife I would certainly recommend it to anyone visiting Galloway. The standard of food and choice was excellent. The staff were very friendly and everything was reasonably priced. With Luce Bay out the window and the beach a stones throw away... More

Stayed at the Tigh Na Mara Hotel in Sandhead for a short break during February at a very pleasing rate for three nights. The weather was very good for the time of year and the Hotel was centrally placed to discover this beautiful area. PortPatrick and the Mull of Galloway are nearby with lots of places to see (unfortunately quite... More

Booked this is a late stop over after getting off ferry in Cairnryan. Arrived late 11.00pm but given warm welcome. Room was small but clean and warm, however the hall and stairs were tied and in need of decorating. The breakfast was excellent, but the coffee was terrible!

I love this little place, I've been 6 or 7 times in the last 5 years. It's got a public bar full of locals with lilting Galloway Irish accents and gets quite lively at the weekend. The 'Tig' shows live football and rugby regularly too. There's a nicer lounge bar through the back and garden with heaters for those cold... More

I did not know what to expect when I saw the place, it looked quite "ordinary". The rooms were clean, spacious and with an en suite bigger than our family bathroom at home. Basic is a word that springs to mind, however the food was another matter. My wife and I ate here for the two evenings we were staying,... More
