The Bushmills Inn ****

The Bushmills Inn excels in providing a relaxing environment for couples, a small group of friends - very often a golfing party. Apart from luncheon groups (often overseas guests visiting the Giant’s Causeway) the hotel declines large parties and weddings as they can take over, rather than absorb, the inherently warm, welcoming and relaxed atmosphere of the hotel.

Since its re-opening in 1987, the Bushmills Inn has come to epitomise the true spirit of Ulster hospitality and is regularly featured by travel writers and television presenters from all over the world.

It was in 1987 that extensive development works were undertaken and for its imaginative restoration the hotel was honoured with the British Airways Tourism Award for Projects. Ten years later 22 additional bedrooms were incorporated in the adjoining Mill House on the banks of the River Bush and a new entrance was created alongside the river from the Dunluce Road.

In year 2000 the hotel was again honoured with the British Airways Tourism Award but this time for Best Hotel and in 2003 was voted Golf Hotel of the Year by the Irish Golf Tour Operators Association.
