Liked: Property conditions & facilities
The owner was very professional, welcoming and organised. The room was cute, with homely touches. The breakfast was prepared with care and alternative milk was provided on request. However, I had to google how to get the shower working and it oscillated between scalding hot and freezing cold. A nice place to stop over but not suitable for tall or mobility impaired travellers.

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.
