What guests think

Woodland Bay Hotel draws praise for spacious, well equipped rooms with kitchenettes, friendly staff, and a scenic beachside setting convenient for road trips and the Cairnryan ferry, though some guests report traffic noise from the coast road and limited nearby amenities.

Guests appreciate the in room continental breakfast and dog friendly units, but there is no on site restaurant or bar, so dinner often means heading into town. Rooms are widely described as very clean and well maintained. Common drawbacks include spotty wifi, warm rooms in hot weather, occasional low hot water pressure, and limited housekeeping. Expect a comfortable, self contained seaside stopover rather than a full service stay.

We really enjoyed our 2 night stay here. The rooms were self-contained units with beds, bathroom, small kitchen and sitting area. Facilities were very clean and tidy. Breakfast was in our room waiting for us. Lots of options - croissants, fruit, yoghurt, cereals. It was no problem to ask for more, if needed. All rooms are dog-friendly. Even a cage was provided. Fantastic location right across from the beach! It's a great place to explore the area, or if travelling to/from Cairnryan. However, please be aware, there isn't a restaurant, bar or lounge area, if that's what you're expecting. Only 'cons' for me - room was very warm, and noisy because it's beside the road.

Travelers should be aware that the restaurant in the hotel has been closed for quite a while. Moreover breakfast is not SERVED in the hotel; you have in your room croissants wrapped in plastic, cereal boxes, teabags, instant coffee, all self-service. It is a lonely and remote place. It’s essentially a rental room with housekeeping, not a hotel.
