    Located very near Giant's Causeway, so we were able to leave our car there and walk to the Causeway. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They assisted us with booking a local Taxi driver to take us in to town for dinner that evening (the...

    The location for the price is fantastic and while the room is nothing super special, it has everything you need. What really sets it apart though are the owners. I had flown Into Dublin from Utah (USA) and driven up from Dublin as soon as my plane...

Company info

My name is Danielle: I am the neice of the owner Alice. This year I am taking over the responsibility of the guest house. I am a lover of animals, especially horses. I also love children and meeting new people. I have worked for my aunt Alice for many years, during my summer holidays and look forward to having more responsibility in the business.

Property info

The Guest House is situated on a hill with spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and beautiful farm land. The neighbouring farm is now an Open/fun farm, ideal for children to learn about the animals, and play many games.

Neighborhood info

Carnside Guest House is ideally situated for those visiting the Giants Causeway as it is only a 10 minutes walk to the visitors centre. It is easy to leave the car at the gueat house and use the bus (rambler) to visit many sites along the Causeway Coast, e.g. Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge, Dunluce Castle, Bushmills Distillery. Keen walkers can walk back to the guest house having gone by bus to various points on the Antrim coast. There is a coastal cliff path, off road, to walk without the presence of road traffic. Those loving beautiful landscapes will not be disappointed. We consider the Causeway Coast to be the most beautiful part of Ireland!
