Many people know Stranraer as a busy ferry port with the shortest
crossing to Ireland. But the town and surrounding area offer so much for visitors to see and do.
Right opposite The Swan Inn is Agnew Park, a perfect place for families to enjoy the many
facilities including crazy golf, a miniature railway, a boating pond, the Pavilion and play areas. The park itself overlooks
the stunning Loch Ryan basin and the area benefits from the warmer temperatures brought with Gulf Stream winds which is why
there are so many palm trees to be seen here.
The Swan
Inn is also ideally situated for the town centre shops and ferry terminal, both just a five-minute walk away.
In Stranraer, there is also a museum charting the history of Wigtownshire,
whilst close by, there are a number of places to visit including the Mull of Galloway, Scotland's most southerly point,
Logan Botanic Gardens and some of the most spectacular coastline anywhere in Scotland.
