Enjoy the best of summer with a luxury hotel break
ABREAK at a McMillan Hotel always offers a touch of luxury and excellent value, but summer is the time when their beautiful locations can truly be appreciated at their best.
With fantastic properties like the Cally Palace Hotel & Golf Course in Gatehouse of Fleet, North West Castle in Stranraer and the Fernhill Hotel in Portpatrick, they have something to suit almost any taste.
The Cally Palace Hotel & Golf Course is the perfect venue for a golf getaway with its own exclusive 18-hole course, and offers great value with DBB packages from £65pppn.
The grandeur of the hotel is matched only by the warmth of the traditional Scottish welcome, and the dining experience offered is also second-to-none.
Using seasonal Scottish produce, the quality of the food on offer is reflected by the AA rosette which adorns the restaurant.
The North West Castle Hotel overlooking Stranraer Harbour and Loch Ryan offers 72 en-suite rooms in a stunning location. There are two great restaurants on-site, as well as a fitness centre, an indoor pool and even a curling rink. Dinner, bed & breakfast starts at just £49 pppn.
The Fernhill Hotel offers picture-perfect panorama views over the village of Portpatrick, the harbour and the Irish Sea. Although the hotel itself is enough reason to visit, with fine dining and golf packages on offer, the real star of the show here is the village itself.
Once the main ferry port to Ireland, Portpatrick is the proud owner of the title “the jewel in the crown of Galloway”, and you’ll find plenty to do with numerous craft shops or welcoming harbourside pubs. DBB deals here start at just £62pppn.
