Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience. The rooms were cozy and had a beautiful view of the water, making mornings extra special. However, the hotel is located in quite a rural area, which may not be ideal for those seeking a bustling environment. The service was exceptional, but dining options were limited to international dishes.

I had a wonderful time at the hotel! It's located right beside the sea, just a stone's throw away from the little harbour, in quite a rural area on the north Mayo coast close to the charming town of Ballycastle. The rooms were lovely with a view of the water and an extra wide bed, and the breakfast was terrific. However, I felt the price was a bit on the higher side for what was offered.
