Cute house on the hill looking over the coastline. Parking was easy and our room (although small) was comfy and had everything we needed for night. Breakfast was included, but they only put small amounts at a time so you had to compete for good a bit. It was a bit loud, we could hear everyone around us. The biggest issue was the smell. Our room, towels, sheets, all smelled like a barn (which was actually feet from our room). If you're sensitive to smells, this isn't the place for you.

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

This BnB is on a dairy farm walking distance to the Giants' causeway and Bushmills attractions. The local bus drops off a 15min walk away, which is great for backpackers. Danielle and her staff are friendly and attentive. I requested a small lamp and had it within minutes. If you need anything just ask. Breakfast is a perfect combo of homemade breads, fruit, cheeses, cereals. An Irish hot breakfast is available for a small additional fee. I loved being on the farm but this may not be for everyone. It is a working farm and smells like one, especially in the heat. This is a guest house that's been in the same family for 3-4 generations and the house shows its age, but not in a detracting way. If you're expecting a 5 star experience of perfection this isn't it. BUT if you love cozy and inviting heritage homes with an established reputation in the area this place is perfect. There are two rooms to relax and chill out both with large tv's and guests do use them. I hung out with other guests and watched the eclipse. We had a grand time. This place is dead quiet at night and perfect if you want a retreat away from the busy world. Lastly, it's one of the few places I've seen great family rooms at a reasonable rate. I will definitely come back, and book much longer next time!

Cairnside is a lovely B&B with a rich family history. We loved the location and enjoyed the walk to the Giant’s Causeway. The breakfasts were hot and filling and there was a lot of variety. We had the triple room with a great view. We would highly recommend this spot.
