    Hargreaves House - Beautiful breakfast room.  If you zoom,  you can see the view of the lough. What a wonderful way to start the day!

    On a recent trip, my granddaughter and I called last minute to see if Pauline could fit us in. She…read morereturned our call within the hour and warmly welcomed us. What began as a one-night stay quickly turned into three and even then, it was hard to leave. The house is impeccably clean, and our room had so many thoughtful touches, such as chocolates, tea, and hot chocolate waiting for us. The bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable, and Pauline made sure we were familiar with how to use the shower. Our ground-floor room overlooked her blooming garden, a lovely, peaceful view to wake up to each morning. During our visit, the house was being reroofed due to storm damage, yet Pauline made sure the roofers didn't start too early so we wouldn't be disturbed. That attention to detail speaks volumes about the care she puts into her guests' experience. The breakfasts were truly exceptional - completely bespoke, with anything you want prepared just the way you like it. Enjoying a delicious meal served on crystal, china, and silver while gazing out over the lough felt like such a treat - elegant, relaxing, and deeply satisfying. An amazing way to start each day! Pauline goes above and beyond to help with anything you might want to do in the area. Whether it's arranging tea at the Merchant Hotel or booking tours of the Titanic exhibit, she takes care of it with enthusiasm and efficiency. Her recommendations of local businesses made our trip so much easier and she even arranged to have our laundry done! Her husband, Ambrose, is also a delight--charming, insightful, and a pleasure to chat with. Leaving Hargreaves House felt like saying goodbye to family. Both my granddaughter and I felt an immediate connection, as though we'd known Pauline and Ambrose for years. We left with full hearts and wonderful memories. We can't wait to return!

    I decided to go to Belfast on a last minute whim and every hostel was booked so I ended up at…read moreKate's B&B for the night. The price is very reasonable. £30 for a night for a private room and queen bed. It was comfy enough and had the decor of what I imagine to be the inside of an Irish antique store. Titanic signs and cat pictures everywhere! The breakfast was typical heavy Irish - sausage, bacon, and eggs and a little oily but served on fine china of course. If I go back to Belfast I would try and get a hostel for price and to be around young people. For a night though, this place worked out and Kate told me I was pretty and reminded her of Kate Middleton :-)

    Well considering the good location, we decided to book this place despite the negative reviews…read more Plus the guy who took my booking over the phone seemed nice. BIG MISTAKE that become evident immediately afterwards. Upon reaching Belfast city we were greeted by an utterly rude and unhelpful man over the phone (not the one who did the booking) who considered it beyond his scope of responsibilities to provide directions to the B&B from city centre. Once at the B&B, he had to confirm from previous manager that I really had paid over the phone and kept refering to me as "this guy". Every query of ours was followed by a look of disapproval as if we were asking for more than what we deserved or had paid for. Room - filthiest most disgusting room I have ever stepped foot in! It was smelly, carpet so damp and dirty you wouldnt want to roam around without your shoes on. Walls not painted and plaster tearing off. Bed sheets clearly not changed before our arrival. No soap and no curtains for the shower. The whole place was eerie and dilapidated. We went downstairs to the reception before going outside to ask for soap and clean towels and were told with an effusive affirmation of "yeah, yeah sure" that they would be replaced asap. When we got back to the room hours later, things were as they were before. Toilet was downstairs with broken shower next to it and again with no soap or shampoo. If I were to bet I would say it hadnt been cleaned for a month atleast. Breakfast; well one might say you cannot go much wrong there can you? Kate's B&B made sure they live up to their cheap standards and made breakfast inedible too. We had to go elsewhere for it. I am extremely disappointed and frustrated and feel robbed of my money. Do yourselves a favour and find a place that is bit further away from the city centre but is atleast decent. DO NOT go to Kate's B&B. As for me, I shall pay more heed to reviews from now on - a lesson I learnt the hard way.

    Coast is probably the closest place to eat from where I live, apart from my kitchen that is, which…read moreusage has decreased week on week. Anyway, enough about me, back to Coast. Coast is a favourite of many local Holywood residents and trust me these residents know their food. The interior decor is simple yet extremely effective, there seems to be a focus on what they serve rather than what the place looks like, not that it's shabby inside, far from it. It's plush decor stands the test of time. It's not huge inside so if you want to visit I would suggest booking, especially at the weekend. They have recently placed a few tables outside so alfresco dining is now an option. Food wise it's excellent. Being so close to the sea I would suggest opting for seafood and would recommend trying their mussels in white wine and garlic sauce along with fresh ciabatta, for dipping of course. Coast is fully licensed so you can grab a glass of wine to accompany your food - the wine list is pretty extensive. The staff are great, there's a good mix of experienced servers as well as those who are taking up part time roles between their studies but don't worry the service never changes - top class! Can't recommend Coast enough - the bill won't break the bank but you'll feel like it should cost more than it does!
