The accommodations were spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. All basic essentials provided. Location in Carrickfergus perfect – view of the Lough and the Castle and walking distance from pubs and shops. Also great spot to tour Northern Ireland from. Most amazing in Carrickfergus are the people, warm, welcoming and eager to tell the history as they know it. Ownies pub had the best seafood chowder, the Dobbins Inn had the best fish and chips.
