Top Carrick-a-Rede Hotel Reviews

Portrush Atlantic Hotel

8/10 Good

"All good pleasant stay"

Dunseverick Ramblers Rest

8/10 Good

"Pros-Dunseverick ramblers rest was very clean, comfortable, nicely presented and dog friendly. It was handy to get to local tourist spots by car. Good for a nights stay. Cons-not within walking distance of tourist spots, the shower wasn’t powerful and the TV had no signal so we couldn’t watch the channels that were meant to be available but could log into our own Netflix account."

Carnside Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous B&B in Bushmills. I booked it as it was close to the Giant’s Causeway and made the walk to the Causeway itself in less than 30 minutes. The single room was spacious, and had everything I needed included a kettle and teabags. I paid an extra £5 to get the cooked breakfast and am glad I did. Fantastic service, homey, hospitable and great location and excellent bang for the buck. Would gladly stay again and recommend it to others."

Causeway Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely ideal place to stay at Giants Causeway. The staff was warm and friendly and made us feel like family. The food at the restaurant was exceptional as well. Our terrace room was ideal. Parking was 100 feet from the entry. Our room even included a delicious breakfast and entry to the Causeway Visitors Center & tour. My only regret is not staying longer. We will 100% be back, hopefully in summer time!"

The Manor House

10/10 Excellent

"Great inn/motel- walkable from the ferry and to the only pub on the island- the Food breakfast and dinner are outstanding- the staff check in and service were excellent and the room comfy clean and lovely- Thank you- I'll be back!"

Causeway Tavern B&B

8/10 Good

"Good value for the money, would have preferred to have breakfast earlier, but that's could just be us a we like to get an early start. The breakfast was excellent. Very narrow staires leading to all the upstairs rooms."

Glass Island Boutique Luxury B&B

10/10 Excellent

Rest A While

10/10 Excellent

"A little bit of road noise. Room and premises were immaculately maintained! The host was the best!"

Beautiful seafront cottage, extensive private gardens, stunning sea views.

10/10 Excellent

"The setting of this property is stunning. To wake up to the beach view each morning and to fall asleep listening to the crashing waves! Idyllic!! We spent some quiet evenings up in the garden house with the lovely view. The beds were super comfy. Driving up and down the narrow switch back road is not for the faint of heart but well worth it!!"
