Frequently asked questions

How much does a beach hotel in Cushendun cost?
Prices for beach hotels in Cushendun vary, but you can find a great deal from £85 on Expedia. You're likely to find lower rates if you're travelling during the off-peak season or mid-week. Find the best deals by being flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
Which area of Cushendun is best to stay in for beaches?
The best area to stay in Cushendun for beaches is directly along the Cushendun Bay beachfront.

This area offers direct access to the main sandy beach, which stretches along the bay. Properties here are often just a stone's throw from the sand and the water, providing excellent views and immediate proximity to the coastline. The village itself is small and compact, with the beach being a central feature.

Families often find this area ideal. With the beach right on your doorstep, it's very convenient for children to play in the sand and paddle in the sea without having to travel far. There are also opportunities for rock pooling at low tide.

Couples looking for a relaxing escape will also appreciate staying by the beach.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Cushendun?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Cushendun is during July and August. These are the warmest months, with average temperatures ranging from 16°C to 19°C, which is ideal for enjoying the coastal scenery and beach activities.

During this period, the village buzzes with a relaxed, holiday atmosphere. The longer daylight hours are superb for leisurely strolls along the sandy beach, exploring the famous Cushendun Caves, or simply unwinding by the sea. Many local businesses extend their hours, and you'll find more options for dining and local crafts, making it a convenient time for families and couples looking for a seaside escape.

For a unique and tranquil experience, May presents a wonderful alternative. While cooler, with temperatures typically between 12°C and 15°C, it's a beautiful time as spring blossoms across the Glens of Antrim. You may find better value on hotel stays and it can be easier to secure reservations at top-rated establishments.
How can I save on a beach hotel in Cushendun with Expedia?

Plus, you'll earn OneKeyCash™* on eligible bookings to use on future trips. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel booking.

What beach activities should we do in Cushendun?
The main beach activities in Cushendun revolve around enjoying the scenery, exploring the caves, and engaging in gentle water-based recreation.

Cushendun Beach itself is a lovely spot for a walk, especially with the striking Antrim Coastline as a backdrop. You can stroll along the sandy and shingly shore, taking in the views of the Mull of Kintyre in Scotland on a clear day. The beach is also known for its adjacent caves, which are easily accessible and a fun spot to explore, particularly for families.

For families, building sandcastles and paddling in the relatively calm waters are popular choices. The beach is generally uncrowded, offering plenty of space for children to play. The nearby Glens of Antrim are also great for a picnic after a beach visit.

Couples might enjoy a romantic walk along the beach at sunset, followed by a visit to the local pub, The Old Church House, which is just a short stroll from the shore.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Cushendun as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Cushendun for you.
