"A perfect place to stay to access Giant's Causeway. Very nice room, very comfortable bed, nice shower. Breakfast was awesome. I did a walk from Portstewart to the guest house. I think in total it was 16 miles. I was exhausted by the time I got there. Then a panic, dinner? But lo and behold, two restaurants within a 15-20 minute walk. Phew! Loved this place!"
