About Stranraer

The largest town in south west Scotland, Stranraer, lies at the head of Loch Ryan, on the north side of the neck of land that prevents the Rhins of Galloway becoming an island. Situated just over the border from England and less than two hours drive from Glasgow, Stranraer is best known Scotland's gateway to Ireland, with its harbour first built in the 1700's. Roll-on roll-off ferries appeared on the Irish routes well ahead of elsewhere in the UK.

Stranraer Terminal Facilities

The East Pier of the Stena Line Ferry terminal is where the boats leave for Belfast from and there is a train station right next to the terminal.

The bus station is on Port Rodie. The West Pier is where the fast HSS catamarans leave for Belfast from. It is the other side of the harbour from the East pier obviously, but it's still helpful to know which is which.

Getting There

By Car

Three major road routes links Stranraer to the north of England and central Scotland. Dumfries and Galloway is just a three hour drive along the M6 from Manchester. Join the M6 from Leeds or Hull by starting on the M62. Coming from London? Take the M1 and join the M6 for a seven hour trip.

Once in Dumfries and Galloway, take the A75 west to reach the Stranraer, Portpatrick and Cairnryan area. If coming from the North West take the A77 south.

By Rail

Scotrail runs services to Stranraer from Glasgow.
