a wonderful family experience with picnic lunches and sea views

Beautiful surroundings, welcoming hosts.

charming decor, lovely views, proximity to beach

The absence of a traditional reception area can be disorienting for newcomers!!! The remote location makes it challenging to get a taxi, especially with heavy bags. Consider simplifying this experience!!!

Exceptional service from the staff.

The lack of a reception area was confusing and off-putting. It felt like I just walked into a restaurant instead of a hotel. it was disappointing that there was no option to enjoy a glass of wine in the lovely gardens during the evening. A hairdryer in the room would have been a practical addition, preferably near a mirror.

our stay was wonderful, with beautiful sea views and cozy decor that exceeded my expectations. i felt welcomed throughout the visit. the breakfast was absolutely delightful, featuring fresh ingredients and homemade flavors.

lack of evening wine options

An enchanting getaway with character-filled accommodations and stunning sea views. The attention to detail in the decor is remarkable, making each space feel unique. Enjoying breakfast overlooking the ocean was a highlight, and the food was absolutely delicious. Shopping nearby and the vibrant market added to the experience. A truly memorable stay.

Spacious family room was perfect, but loud music disturbed my morning rest.

would stay here again without hesitation

Room was spacious with a comfy bed and a view over Ballyholme Bay. Enjoyed tea/coffee making facilities and a fridge on the landing with fresh milk and snacks. Breakfast had fresh pastries and an excellent menu. The decor is quirky and stylish. The staff were warm and welcoming, making the atmosphere feel very at home.

The location directly across from the park and sea added to the charm of our stay. The hospitality shown by the hosts made us feel at home.

There were some minor noise issues from the street that could be improved.

Stunning views from the room. Breakfast options were gourmet and impressive. No traditional reception area, which felt a bit odd.

Had a fantastic stay at Cairn Bay Lodge! The unique decor added so much charm to the family room which was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, piping hot, and really set us up for the day. The views were stunning as well, making the stay even more special.

There was nothing I didn't like during my stay.
