What a treat it was to stay at Carnside Guest House. We had only one night there, but would gladly go back to stay again. The room was clean and comfortable, the breakfast was plentiful and delicious (especially the home-made bread!), and the antique decor is absolutely charming. Danielle is a delightful and accommodating innkeeper, and made great recommendations for us for dining and sightseeing, especially as the Giant’s Causeway is easy walking distance from the guesthouse. Be sure to check out the Fun Farm, and treat yourself to the hot tubs!

A fabulous place to stay beautiful views and really handy for a visit to The Giants Causeway. Very welcoming and friendly family, with a superb choice for the buffet breakfast that is included and also an option to preorder a great value cooked breakfast as an extra. Comfy beds, good shower, couldn't want for more. Will definitely be back to give the cocktail and hottub with a view experience a go. Well recommended

Just a one night stopover visiting the local UNESCO Giant’s Causeway. A lovely warm welcome received. The room (#01) was a good size, very clean and tidy and well stocked with tea/coffee and biscuits. We had a great sea view beyond the small car park. Breakfast 8am~9am was ‘serve yourself’ Continental style with everything necessary to get us started for our day walking the coast. The location is perfect for anyone wanting to visit the Giant’s Causeway, as it’s an easy 15 minute stroll to the *National Trust Visitor Centre and free to continue along the coast. The evening of our arrival, we drove a couple of miles into Bushmills and can highly recommend Flash In The Pan fish & chip shop. We took our fish supper down to Salmon Rock Beach Car Park and watched the sun setting over the sea. All in all a fabulous place to visit and stay. Thank you Carnside, we’re recommending you to our friends! *NT charges to enter Visitor Centre but not the coastal walks
