Our stay at Cullentra House was one of the highlights of our visit to Country Antrim. The hosts were very kind and generous. The rooms were in perfect order and the breakfast was top chef. Great access to walks in the mountains and on the coast.
Excellent stay, very friendly host, and breakfast was amazing! Full Irish breakfast!
Only complaint was that twin room was a little small, and only 2 plugs in room, otherwise excellent! 👍
Everything that Olive and her husband did was first class!! They go way over and beyond first class. The linen, the towels, the food, the view, the quietness cleanliness was perfect.
Breakfast was incredible. Great job!!
Place to rest and reflect before traveling, great breakfast and host.

Fantastic host who caters for your every need, The house is spectacularly clean, very comfortable bed, breakfast was out this world, wonderful views looking over the sea
This place is a gem. Breakfast was the best we had on our entire trip. Olive goes above and beyond; even calling to confirm dinner reservations for us.
We loved our stay at Cullentra House. Olive is the consummate host, ensuring every detail meets her high standards. We were welcomed on the afternoon of our check-in to her well-established and beautifully-situated B&B with tea/coffee and homemade cake. The room, ensuite bathroom, and the rest of the public areas of her house were sparkling clean. On-site parking was easy and plentiful. Our bed and linens were very comfortable. Olive's breakfast was unsurpassed, with more options than a restaurant menu and served in elegant table settings. We certainly hope to return!
The host was adorable and made the stay feel like home. The breakfast provided was plenty with lots of options. Definitely recommend to stay here again.
Was a wonderful place to spend the night! Comfortable beds and an amazing breakfast!!!
Everyone we met were so helpful and kind!!!!
Would stay there again!!!

The breakfast made by Olive was absolutely delicious. She also gave us scones to go everyday.
James & Olive were so informative with restaurants to go to & also they helped us in our sightseeing plans each day.

Cullentra House was a lovely stop along our Irish road trip. We arrived late in the evening and Olive welcomed us warmly, and served a delicious and beautiful breakfast in the morning. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was large. Quick but great stay!
