By far the best local getaway we’ve had. The place was spotless, and we were amazed by the appliances on offer. The hot tub was why we booked and it did not disappoint. We’ve paid much more for much less. Can’t recommend enough. Host was very friendly, and accommodating. Self check-in was a great addition. We will certainly be back in the future. Many thanks for a great stay. ##### James Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### PAUL 11 Jan 2024 ##### PAUL Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Bayview Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bushmills-Hotels-Bayview-Hotel.h19896727.Hotel-Information) > > [Everglades Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Londonderry-Hotels-Everglades-Hotel.h49196.Hotel-Information) > > [Slieve Donard](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Hotels-Slieve-Donard-Resort-And-Spa.h890512.Hotel-Information) > > [Da Vinci's Hotel Derry](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Londonderry-Hotels-Da-Vincis-Hotel-Derry.h1194529.Hotel-Information) > > [Portrush Adelphi ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portrush-Hotels-Adelphi-Portrush.h4508144.Hotel-Information) > > [The Port Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portrush-Hotels-The-Port-Hotel.h5457166.Hotel-Information) > > [City Hotel Derry](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Londonderry-Hotels-City-Hotel-Derry.h2469005.Hotel-Information) > > [La Mon Hotel And Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Belfast-Hotels-La-Mon-Hotel-And-Country-Club.h969202.Hotel-Information) > > [Portrush Atlantic Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portrush-Hotels-Portrush-Atlantic-Hotel.h583054.Hotel-Information) > > [Golflinks Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portrush-Hotels-Golflinks-Hotel.h21360161.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Antrim by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Antrim-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Antrim.h1710129.Hotel-Information) > > [Hillyard House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castlewellan-Hotels-Hillyard-House-Hotel.h76714293.Hotel-Information) > > [Causeway Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bushmills-Hotels-Causeway-Hotel.h8271915.Hotel-Information) > > [Canal Court Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newry-Hotels-Canal-Court-Hotel.h2891083.Hotel-Information) > > [Dobbins Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carrickfergus-Hotels-Dobbins-Inn.h11113142.Hotel-Information) > > [Beech Hill Country House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Londonderry-Hotels-Beech-Hill-Country-House-Hotel.h892797.Hotel-Information) > > [Roe Valley Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Limavady-Hotels-Roe-Park-Resort.h13397.Hotel-Information) > > [Bishop's Gate Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Londonderry-Hotels-Bishops-Gate-Hotel.h13097181.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunsilly Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Antrim-Hotels-Dunsilly-Hotel.h1169782.Hotel-Information) > > [Maldron Hotel Derry](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Londonderry-Hotels-Maldron-Hotel-Derry.h897389.Hotel-Information) > > [Private luxury log cabin with hot tub and stunning views!](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ballycastle-Hotels-This-Cosy-Log-Cabin-Is-In-A-Peaceful-Rural-Location-With-Stunning-Views.h48890659.Hotel-Information) > > [The Salthouse Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ballycastle-Hotels-The-Salthouse-Hotel.h39179443.Hotel-Information) > > [The Nines, Bangor Marina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bangor-Hotels-The-Salty-Dog-Hotel-Bistro.h22701065.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Derry - Londonderry by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Londonderry-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Derry-Londonderry.h33146122.Hotel-Information) > > [Lusty Beg Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enniskillen-Hotels-Lusty-Beg-Island.h19277355.Hotel-Information) > > [Killeavy Castle Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newry-Hotels-Killeavy-Castle-Estate.h30431238.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Coleraine-Hotels-The-Lodge-Hotel.h9866723.Hotel-Information) > > [Lough Erne Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enniskillen-Hotels-Lough-Erne-Resort.h1685587.Hotel-Information) > > [Inn on the Coast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portrush-Hotels-Inn-On-The-Coast.h19906901.Hotel-Information)
