Review 5：Nothing really; en-suit was 'cosy' but, everything worked excellently and again, very clean.
Review 6：Warm welcome by Robert. Our room (No.6) was spacious,spotlessly clean and well furnished. Breakfast was excellent with a good range of cereals and a most substantial cooked breakfast + an excellent view over the harbour!
Review 7：the guest house was spotlessly clean, very quiet location perfect for a good nights sleep, the room had all facilities needed, the hostess Leslie was lovely and very helpful its a great location perfect for everything in Portpatrick and the breakfast was great, would really recommend a stay here
Review 8：Bed broke when I sat on it. We reported it immediately but no other room available. Staff very apologetic but I was mortified and disappointed that no discount on our stay was offered.
Review 9：Staff lovely. Spotlessly clean.
Review 10：Pillows to thin. WIFI only available in dining room for us. Very surprised to find a top class accommodation in 2015, that does not accept credit or debit cards. My fault as I did not read the small print, but very inconvenient.

Review 14：Nothing to dislike
Review 15：Friendly owners and great location just a stroll down to the sea front with choice of eateries. It was a perfect base to begin our walk along the Southern Upland Way. We didn't have our own transport but it has ample car parking. Beautifully quiet at night.
Review 16：No tolietries/shampoo etc in bathroom.
Review 17：Welcoming and helpfull staff in a great location. Service was good (extra duvet no problem at all). Just a short walk to local pubs and the sea. Clean room and bathroom.
Review 18：Wasn't a bad experience but the hill the Guest House was on was quite steep which didn't bother us but may not suit everyone.
Review 19：The couple who ran it and comfy bed. View from dining room
Review 20：last breakfast at 9am and checkout by 10am- unusual by most of todays standards. For the same price in the same area can get later breakfast/checkout and bar facilities.
Review 21：Clean friendly and relaxed
Review 22：The room was freezing when we arrived and because we hadn't given a time of our arrival the heating hadn't been put on. We had to go out somewhere to get warm. Also, there was a bell to ring to get attention and we rung it on two separate occasions and nobody turned up!

Review 24：The en-suite was a little bit tight, and not very private!!

Review 105：Shower room very small so space at a premium when you're in there but lovely and clean. Haven't seen other rooms so this one may just be the smallest. Wouldn't stop us going back.
Review 106：Second time we've stayed at Blinkbonnie. Short notice so we were glad to get a room - same room as we'd had before. Very clean and modern furniture. Very comfortable bed. Owners friendly & helpful without being over the top. Brilliant breakfast. Lovely house & garden - we sat outside in the evening. Blinkbonnie has everything you could want in a b&b. We would definitely stay again.

Review 111：Friendly, Efficient, Clean and very tidy, Excellent views of the Village and Sea.
Review 112：From the moment my wife and I stepped into Brinkbonnie we felt at home. We received a warm welcome and quickly settled in. The nearness to Port Patrick's lovely harbour and its magnificent views with excellent parking makes it first class location.
Review 113：The room for breakfast was very quiet. Could do with some music or radio on as its awkward sitting eating breakfast in such a quiet room with other guests.
Review 114：Great location,quiet yet only 2 minutes walk to the harbour. Providing bottled water and delicious biscuits in the room was a nice touch. Excellent breakfast.
