9/10 Wonderful! (113 reviews)
We loved staying in this unique vintage hotel. Our room was at the top of the building but was clean and well set-up. It's in a great neighborhood close to Queen's College. Loved the door knobs! Enjoyed a great meal at Hendrick's which was walking distance from the Gregory. Which we could have stayed for breakfast. Highly recommended.

Kinbane Castle
Unrivalled coastal scenery in Carrick-A-Rede and Larrybane Bay. Definitely one of the most beautiful coastline I have visited! The main reason why I wanted to visit Northern Ireland is to see the Giant Causeway, so seeing the beauty of Antrim Coastal Road was a pleasant surprise. Our tour guide was pretty funny too.

Carrick-a-Rede

How’s your head for heights? A narrow, swinging bridge, 20 metres long and suspended 100 feet above the rocks and sea below, links mainland Northern Ireland with a tiny outcropping of volcanic rock known as Carrick-a-Rede.
