Henrys Bay House Restaurant with hearty portions of well-sourced meat and seafood and a welcoming vibe. There's a pleasingly old-fashioned feel to some of the dishes, while others have a more contemporary style. If the weather's fine, the deck is a great spot to be, overlooking the bay.

Torrs Warren Country House in Stoneykirk has two comfortable bars, a conservatory restaurant and an oak lined dining room. They serve fresh Scottish produce in season, fine wines and a wide range of malt whiskies.

Clashwhannon in Drummore serves locally sourced food in the dining room and has a bar serving real ales.

Connors Restaurant by the harbour in Portpatrick has an extensive a la cart'e menu offering a range of house specialities, including seafood and meat dishes. Catch of the day is a real treat.

If you fancy coffee and cakes or afternoon tea then try the Potting Shed Bistro at Logan Botanic Garden, Gallie Craig at the Mull of Galloway, Coffee Bean at Soleburn Garden Centre or the Beachcomber in Portpatrick.

Visit Belfast ! why not.
If you fancy a trip further afield take a ferry from Cairnryan to visit Belfast for a day trip, the short crossing only takes 2 hours and 15 minutes. There are often special prices for tickets and regular buses and taxis run from Belfast Port into the city centre. Visit the Titanic Museum, take a trip to Belfast Zoo or head to the shops.
