The Bushmills Inn

The Bushmills Inn

10/10 Excellent
"A beautiful old inn with modern and spacious rooms. Breakfast was very good. Dinner was superb. Busses ran regularly to the Causeway, a mere 5 minute ride. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful."

"This is a beautiful getaway just minutes (driving) from everything within Bushmills. We stayed here 3 days and had the most delicious breakfasts. Our room was nice and clean - overlooked garden/deck. Gail, the owner, was so sincere, attentive and helpful. Parking is right in front of the B & B. Bed was comfortable. We went to the Giants Causeway every day we were there and also found a wonderful church nearby to attend on Sunday as well as spending some time at Dunlace Castle. Out of our 2-week stay in Ireland, this was our favorite."

Causeway Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This is a fab location for the causeway I question other reviews on the staff I think it’s irrelevant what nationality they are, we found them all really helpful and pleasant! The hotel is a bit dated in places but with a listed building and an increasing pressure on these hotels to survive I felt the surroundings were fine! You pay for the location and we couldn’t have been happier with our stay, we tried some 4 star hotels on our travels and they didn’t compare to the authenticity and location of this hotel we would come again no question"
