The Harbour House Hotel, Portpatrick, was built in 1790 by the Admiralty for Commissioners for the Portpatrick New Harbour project, and the hotel is listed as a building of Special Historic Interest. The hotel holds a prime position at the centre of the Portpatrick sea front, overlooking the entrance to Portpatrick harbour, which for centuries was the British mainland end of the short sea route to Ireland.

The new owners are in the process of sympathetically modernising and refurbishing the hotel. The bar, kitchens and public facilities together with some of our 8 bedrooms have been refurbished and the remaining bedrooms and our 3 self-catering suites should be complete by Christmas.

Our new kitchen is producing fresh homemade food daily to service the bar for lunch and dinner with a selection of British and European classics. We are committed to producing seasonal, fresh menus all year round.

Our bar is a great place for tourists and locals to meet and enjoy a warm and welcoming atmosphere. With a wide selection of beers from around the world, together with the obligatory selection of Scotch Whisky! The local area has a great deal to offer whether it is walking, golf or sea fishing - and the hotel provides you with a great base and a welcoming place to come back to.
