    Pros +

    • The room was very nicely updated. The hotel was right off the road and breakfast and dinner were available right downstairs. The food was very good.
    • Newly refurbished room, good service, nice views, a good pub just downstairs
    • Location. Little village very close to Carrick a rede rope bridge. Easy to find on main road. Lovely bar and restaurant, reasonably priced on premises. You make a reservation for both dinner and breakfast, if you want to eat there. Breakfast was 10£. Tiny room and bath; but, good shower and comfy bed!

    Cons -

    • Didn't like to walk through the restaurant to get to the room.
    • Noisy doors if slammed. Small room but quite adequate.
    • Parking was tight but worked out.

    Great location with excellent pub on site.

    Nice size room & en suite bathroom. Great location for exploring the north Antrim coast. Great staff & great value.

    The shower kept going from hot to cold & back again.

    Antique from the outside, yet modern and updated room and bath. Great location, in a beautiful area. We had a drink across the street, taking in the view and then dinner in the cozy bar at the hotel. Grabbed pastry and tea next door in the morning. It is a qiuet area with not much else around, but outstanding scenery in either direction, so made a good base to explore from.

    Nothing not to like!

    We had a really nice dinner here and my brother and husband said they had the best breakfast on the whole trip here! The room we had was a king and 4 bunks, the bunks where very comfortable (I slept in one) and it was pretty quiet even tho we faced the parking lot. People do start getting up early and banging and car/motorcyles starting up but if you're in the bunk it's really quite. We all had an excellent nights sleep!

    Nothing really

    Perfect location just minutes from town. Beautiful grounds and rooms were comfortable! Dermot was so incredibly kind!

    10ColleenPosted on: 7-3-2025

    Fantastic staff! Comfortable, cozy, perfect room for one! Loved the beautiful lighting and tartan carpet all through the hotel! Most memorable meal at the hotel restaurant absolutely delicious!

    Shower head would not stand on its own, a quick fix for a handyman!?

    Room was cosy and clean. Friendly staff. In a good location on North Coast, near to Ballycastle and Carrick-a-rede Rope Bridge.

    The evening food in the pub was okay but nothing special.

    9SueBrumPosted on: 6-12-2025

    Would definitely recommend the place. Friendly and helpful staff, ideal location for seeing many of the local sites of interest. The food was tasty and well-cooked. However, the menu was a bit limited for us, we were expecting more local fare and seafood. If you like burgers and fried food you'd be fine, but we'd prefer some healthier options too. It's a minor thing, and overall our stay was excellent.

    Friendly staff, good food, great location. Happy we discovered it!

    Brilliant location for the rope bridge and the magical Ballintoy Harbour. The pub food was excellent and staff very friendly. They also have one of the 10 Game of Thrones doors!

    10StephenPosted on: 4-8-2025

    Beautiful location, delicious food, very friendly staff, nice cozy traditional bar to have a drink in, room was very spacious & clean, would highly recommend.

    9KathrynPosted on: 3-25-2025

    The room was extremely clean and very comfortable. It was also a very good sized space and excellent value for money. Having the restaurant downstairs was very convenient and the food was great.

    9DarioPosted on: 3-21-2025

    Location is stunning (watching sunrise at the Balintoy harbor is priceless), food is great, room spacious and clean. Realy good value for money

    Beautiful pub , lovely rooms , great staff , food and drink excellent definitely go back

    10JeannePosted on: 3-3-2025

    The staff were lovely; friendly and on the ball. Dog friendly everywhere! The food was divine, which we ate while sitting on an armchair by the fire. The rooms spotless and comfortable. Incredible scenery, and the locals we bumped into were really friendly. I will go back. A 20 minute drive to the lovely town of Colraine (which has shops aplenty!)

    It's not that I didn't like it, but there's no local newsagent, so buy munchies on your journey there.

    9SusanPosted on: 2-23-2025

    Excellent value and food. Friendly staff and onsite parking

    A choice of pillows might be helpful and the duvet only just covers it. Slightly bigger in colder weather would be appreciated
