The rooms and owners were great. Breakfast was wonderful. The views were incredible. Loved sitting out on the shore. Quiet and restful the only issue we had is that no restaurants were open after 7 pm. So we had to eat before heading back to Portaferry. Would highly recommend.

Had to bang on the window to get in as all locked up with no instructions on how to get in! Room was minging, sink hanging off the wall! Handle hanging off the kettle, no internet, no shower gel. And the bathroom (no bath) looked like a shower scene out of Papilon! I’m easily pleased but this is a Complete dump!!!
