Ardaghmore Bed and Breakfast Guest House
35 North Street, Ballycastle, County Antrim, Northern Ireland

The Ardaghmore Guest House was built as a private home in the late 1800s. It is extremely comfortable and clean. The location is on the Causeway Coastal Route, ideal for visiting Giant’s Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge and Dunluce Castle.

Ardaghmore Guest House is on Quay Hill in Ballycastle, with a view across the ocean all the way over to Rathlin Island and Fair Head. I am told I was also seeing Scotland.  I could look down toward the harbor and kids on the beach and a park.

Ardaghmore Guest House has kept the Victorian historic architecture, but the house has been maintained and carefully improved. I really appreciated hot, hot water and central heating! I will never take it for granted again!

The house is popular. My hostess, Genevieve McLernon, apologized that the only room available was smaller, in the back of the house. I loved it! I could not see the water, but the mountains are beautiful! It was cozy, clean and comfortable. The bed was wonderful.

I had my own bathroom.

Any time I wanted, I could make a pot of tea. There were public rooms. The lounge had a fire. But,  I had tea snuggled up in my cosy room. Genevieve gave me some decorating magazines to read. When I went home she let me keep them. She really made my stay comfortable.

I left early to watch the sun come up, just in time for milk delivery and had a delicious breakfast.
