Will stay again - loved it
If you're ever in the north of Northern Ireland, this is the place to stay at. The service was wonderful and welcoming. The accommodation was excellent. At first the lights didn't work, they came straight over and fixed the issue (circuit tripped). The rooms were clean, beds really comfortable and to top it off, the bar/restaurant served incredible food. The staff were so helpful and friendly. Everything was cooked really well, and priced just right. We look forward to be staying here again when back in Northern Ireland.

Should be a great place but, when the owners know of a serious plumbing problem, and still book guest! Room and bath were great, except the shower was completely clogged and does not drain Therefore shower last 20 seconds then overflows! Talking with staff, they know this and explain that no repairs will be made until after the season! They rent a defective room, and still take your money.....

4/10 Fair

Double bed in single room!
Arrived at accommodation to find we had been given a double bed in a single room. There was 6 inches at one side of the bed to get out of, next to the sliding door for the compact bathroom. Once sat on the toilet, burnt arm on heated towel rail. No room to dry after taking shower. Very tasteful decor- but too small. Outside of window was the extractor for the kitchen, when mentioned this to staff, were told it went off at 9pm. Wasn’t told it came on at 7am! Asked for another room, but only had a double bed in a family room with bunk beds. We were offered a move for the next day, but change of staff meant we weren’t moved, by then we had given up. Our first night in the bar was chaotic, as the local youth hostel had its night out, the second night we were the only couple in the bar. The service from the very young staff was excellent, the food was good, but to charge £90 for room only was a bit much, we were offered free breakfast to compensate for inconvenience of small room. Just to add insult, we were shown the room which the previous nights staff had arranged for us, but we weren’t informed about, it was large and comfortable. Nice pub for Giants Causeway, but rooms overpriced.

Staff were so welcoming, friendly and very helpful. Food was fabulous !! Rooms were lovely and spotless. A little gem of a place, located a stones throw away was Ballintoy Harbour probably one of the most beautiful places to visit with breath taking scenery. Definitely 10 out of 10 😬

Unfortunately the toilet roll holder fell off the wall as soon as we got there and the water took ages draining away meaning that it flooded and you had to have a very quick shower. Otherwise very friendly staff and comfortable beds.

Spotlessly clean, lovely modern room, Good breakfast apart from the porridge which was awful. Also the people who work there don’t know much about the local attractions. When we arrived we asked what time the ropebridge closed and they told us 5pm. When we went the following day we realised it was open till 7.30pm and consequently we missed the opportunity the previous day which was annoying. Would recommend this b and b although it is on the expensive side.

GOT Lover's Find
Beautiful & remote area. The Fullerton Arms is an older pub-hotel with great food and nice people. Crowded but accessible parking in the back off the street. A real GOT magnet because they have a room that is outfitted with the throne and other memorabilia for the GOT lover's delight. We, of course, sat in the throne and wore the garments for a pic! The bar door has a carved dragon. No cell coverage and the wi-fi was spotty or unavailable at times, however.

Unpretentious pub but stylish and immaculately presented rooms. Only drawback was no phone signal and WiFi only worked downstairs. However, staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and we had a lovely meal there in the evening.
