    stayed there recently for a wedding - the wedding was great, staff and food etc beautiful. Rooms are lovely.

    Giant's Causeway - where to stay

    Would concur with Portstewart - we stayed for a week in Portrush a few summers ago. Great for the small kids during the day as full of amusements etc but Portstewart much nicer and seems more safer at night. Also consider the other direction - Bushmills or Ballycastle. The northern coast is...
