The weather in Port Patrick was cold and crisp but our welcome from Maggie and Fred couldn't have been warmer! We thoroughly enjoyed the comfortable and relaxing atmosphere at Rickwood House where our hosts succeeded in making us feel at home. Breakfast was generous and delicious - served in the dining room with a lovely view of the garden and... More

we booked to stay here on the strength of other reviews and were totally satisfied - helpful, friendly and informative hosts, really nice room, excellent breakfast (and home-made shortbread!), all at a very good price. Portpatrick is a nice little fishing village and we plan to come back to explore the area further. When we do we know where to... More

Well, where do I start! arrived to a fantastic homely and friendly welcome from Maggie & Fred, room more than adequate and breakfast top drawer! Then the snow came, blocked in for nearly 2 days, no power, no mobiles who would've thought a world without technology, however Maggie & Fred came into their own, provided all of us with hot... More

This review is a little late but would just like to say we had a great time here, we were made very welcome, rooms were clean and accomodating and we had a great sea view overlooking Portpatrick... Definitely be back... oh and try the home made shortbread it was delicious!

Had a night away in Portpatrick and we chose to stay in this guesthouse because of the good write up. And yes it's lovely! Great position with a wee lane down a hill so just a little stroll and you'll be by the harbour. The town itself is pleasant, nice and calm (thank goodness there are no amusements in sight)... More

The view over Portpatrick Harbour and beyond is outstanding from Rickwood House Hotel. It’s the first thing once we noticed as we drove into their ample private parking lot. Maggie was very friendly and informative upon our arrival. She offered recommendations on where to eat and places to visit. She gave us easy to follow instructions for a steep, but... More

Just returned from a weekend at this Guest House. In line with other reviewer's comments, great position, super welcome and attention from owners, spotless accomodation, great breakfast, lovely grounds and good rates. All rooms fully booked too, not bad for an off-peak weekend in October. Recommended but remeber to book ahead!

One of the best short breaks we have had. The hotel itself was in an excelent position within Portpatrick. Fred and Maggie couldn't have been more helpful and concerned that our needs were met. Dinners superb.
