amazing city strolls near the beach and local cafes
Sharon welcomed us warmly, and it was just a short walk of a few steps to the beach and only about 2 km to Ballycastle Museum, which made our weekend exploration so much easier and enjoyable.

We stayed for three nights and really enjoyed the cozy Deluxe King Room—plenty of comfy pillows and a great shower made it a perfect escape. After our daily adventures, we loved relaxing in the garden and cozying up in the leisure room. The only downside was that we could have used a bit more space for our luggage, but it didn’t take away from our stay! 😊

The room was unexpectedly spacious with a fab walk-in bathroom and a comfy bed! The coffee machine? Absolute lifesaver for my mornings before a busy day of exploring.
But darling, the echo from those stylish floors was nearly louder than my heels! A tad too noisy after my lovely wine-filled dinner, I must say!

Glass Island felt like a gem. Sharon and her husband welcomed us warmly. The room exceeded our expectations. spacious and modern, with a large walk-in bathroom. The coffee machine was a nice touch. Breakfast options were plentiful, with made-to-order meals that started our day off right. The location was stellar, just a short walk to town and close to local attractions like the Giant's Causeway and the rope bridge. Their recommendations for lunch and dinner were spot on. We encountered a small hiccup with traffic patterns when arriving, but Sharon had already alerted us, which was thoughtful. I left my electric shaver behind, and Sharon kindly mailed it to me without hesitation. Cleanliness was impeccable throughout the property. the whole place felt fresh and well cared for. it could benefit from more soundproofing. we occasionally heard sounds from the hallway.

Exceptional Stay with Delightful Breakfasts
Our stay was fantastic! The atmosphere was calm and welcoming, and the modern decor was beautifully arranged. The room was spacious with a large bathroom, and the breakfast offered freshly cooked options that truly exceeded our expectations. The location was perfect for exploring the area as well. I would have appreciated the addition of hooks in the room for hanging coats.

great stay but needs minor tweaks
The breakfast selection was outstanding, particularly the slow-cooked oats. The room was beautifully designed and exceptionally comfortable, making it an ideal retreat after a day of exploring. The host's personal touch in service made us feel truly valued.
The room lacked a clear view even though the garden was lovely.
