Lovely stay. Elaine greeted me and made me feel at home showing me around. Had a walk around the waterside. Good night sleep, especially for catching the ferry (15 min drive) to Belfast. Breakfast was either cereals and yogurt or a cooked one to order. Definitely recommend a stay here.

The lady who check us in was very nice. The room was a little bit small but very nice. The main concern is that there was a big slug in the shower.
