The Briers Country House

Newcastle

Offering free WiFi, parking on-site and a garden, the recently renovated property of The Briers Country House, offers accommodation in Newcastle, 2.9 km from Newcastle Beach and 23 km from Down Cathedral. The property features mountain views, and is 34 km from The Cathedral of Saint Patrick and Saint Colman. The guest house has family rooms and facilities for disabled guests. I loved the little extras, there was a Christmas tree in our room, my little boy loved it. The complimentary drink was a lovely touch. The breakfast was great for it only being continental, great selection of breads and fruit, yogurt etc. The views were beautiful, a great location. Only a few minutes drive into town but felt like we were a million miles away. The host was a lovely guy, very welcoming and friendly. Asked us throughout our stay were we OK, warm enough etc. The rooms were toasty warm, we were there in December so it was great to get back into our rooms knowing the beds were so comfy and warm. Would definitely recommend and we will definitely be returning.

Seaview Guesthouse

Rostrevor

Located in Rostrevor, Seaview Guesthouse offers en-suite accommodation with free WiFi access throughout. The property features a bar, as well as a terrace with barbecue facilities, and provides guests with on-site private parking free of charge and bicycle rental services to explore the surroundings. The facilities were indeed wonderful -- but more importantly, one could not find as genial and helpful hosts as Brendan and Martina. They made the extra effort -- and then some -- to make sure their guests were well taken off. So very much appreciated.

Shelleven Guest House 4 stars

Bangor

Shelleven Guest House is a Victorian property with great charm and period features throughout, providing luxurious accommodation and dining in a warm relaxed atmosphere. The property was rated as 4-star accommodation by the Northern Ireland Tourist Board. The staff were terrifically friendly, remembered your name you felt like family. It was scrupulously clean, in the room and common areas. The rooms were well finished and included shower gel etc. The single bed was a 3/4 so very roomy. Overall nothing disappointed. The breakfast was fabulous, I had the full Irish, and really didn’t need to eat much more in the day.
