Cullentra House

8/10 Good
"We stayed at Cullentra House for one night on August 22, 2026 as part of our driving trip along the Coastal Causeway Route. The couple who own the property are friendly and helpful. There is plenty of parking, and the property is very clean and well maintained. They offered an extensive choice of multiple hot items for breakfast, plus fruit, yogurt, a small smoothie, pastries, etc. I ordered the eggs benedict & was expecting one poached egg, but the order came out with two! It was way more food than I could eat, but I appreciate the care taken in the preparation & presentation, which was lovely. My husband ordered an omelet which was also excellent. You could tell they worked hard & put a good deal of effort into the breakfast preparation. I would highly recommend this B&B for the good food, clean room, setting, which provides an incredible view & lovely owners."

10/10 Excellent
"Really nice hotel and amazing staff. The one thing I would say is that it’s not very well connected, the train station is around a 25-30 minute walk from the hotel and the train to Belfast are every hour (10 past every hour) so it’s a little bit of a pain to get anywhere. However can’t fault the staff or the hotel. It’s located near lots of a good food places and a supermarket on the door step"
