Little gem of a hotel.

Bedroom and bathroom fairly small but clean and beautifully decorated. Perfect for an overnight stay. Restaurant meal was excellent and good value, we had the early bird menu. Staff so friendly. Breakfast lovely. No complaints at all and we would stay here again.

Booked into a twin but was advised of a mix up in the booking so was offered the holiday bungalow down the road and a voucher for dinner. Excellent customer service. Already a returning customer but this secures future visits too. Fabulous location.

They were very hospitable and helpful - extending serving hours so we could have a late dinner and serving us in the bar so we wouldn't have to leave the dogs in the room. Highly recommended.

We chose this hotel to be close to the ferry terminal. Although a little farther from the terminal than we first thought, we feel it was our best choice compared to alternatives in the area. Hotel, fully modernized, great food, and helpful staff instrumental in our very early morning Drive to the ferry terminal

Lovely room, great meal, smashing breakfast. Really was a lovely place. Went on a Saturday so the bar was a bit loud if you want an early night but once the bar shut it was a really good nights sleep. Definitely be back

The cabin

Great stay again at Tigh na Mara cabin . Excellent meal both nights in the restaurant friendly staff love coming here with the dogs . A bit of radio or background music at breakfast would make a difference for a bit of atmosphere but love the place

Handy for Logan Gardens and by car, easy to get to the ferries. Food was excellent and waiter service very efficient. Good facilities to dine outside if you so wish. Looks out onto a park and the beach. A hidden gem.

We had one night here, which included breakfast. We also had an evening meal in the restaurant. Everyone was very friendly and food was good. Our room had a view of the bay which was stunning with the sunrise. The only slight downside was that the room was very hot despite turning down the radiator. Having picked up our new puppy, we will be back to check out one of their dog friendly rooms and explore the local area.

Tigh na Mara is the small village pub for Sandend, offering accommodation for a few bedrooms and an excellent restaurant, way above normal pub food for quality, quantity and presentation. Service was good too. It is ideally situated facing a wide beach with beautiful safe, gently sloping sands when the tide is out. Portpatrick is just a few miles away and we’ll worth a visit.

Good stay

Lovely stay. Room was comfortable and staff were very helpful. We ate at the hotel. We had to ask for vegan options, and there was a nice choice - not sure why they weren't on the menu, as my risotto was lovely. They went the extra mile to provide a vegan breakfast, which was much appreciated.
