Wonderful guest house in Ballycastle

Fantastic guest house in a quiet location in Ballycastle. Very well situated for the Rathlin Island ferry. The room was amazing and the bed very comfortable. The hosts are really helpful and made sure our stay was memorable. Breakfast was great and set us up for the day.

We loved talking with the owners who gave us great insight into the north of Ireland! It was the best part of our stay! The room, lounge areas, breakfast and parking were all good, though we didn’t realize house is in the middle of a more suburban block. Town is cute and not far away and location of the house worked out on our way back from visiting the Causeway (which we visited late in the evening - highly recommended in summer). Sending our best wishes to the owners!

Amazing place to stay

Our first time at Glass Island Boutique & it was amazing. Accommodation was a very high standard for furnishings, maintenance & cleaniness. Sharon was most welcoming & food was exceptional quality & was keen to accomodate my wife's gluten intolerance. Location was perfect for the harbour & for the local restaurants/bars. Would highly recommend & will book again.

I wish I could give this place 50 stars. It’s such a cozy and amazing spot. My only regret is I stayed for one night instead of several! Thank you so much for having me. I will be having dreams of how nice the room was and how delicious the smoked salmon bagel was for breakfast.
