Bushmills Hotel

A historic hotel close to landmark sites such as the Giant's Causeway, Old Bushmills Distillery and Royal Portrush Golf Club, the Bushmills Inn is certainly one of the best-placed hotels in Northern Ireland.

A former coaching inn and mill house dating back to the 1800s, the Bushmills Inn is an award winning hotel and restaurant, rich in historic charm and warm Ulster hospitality. The Inn is situated in the centre of the town of Bushmills, home to the Old Bushmills Distillery, the oldest licensed whiskey distillery in the world, while close by are the World Heritage Site of the Giant's Causeway and the world renowned golf links at Royal Portrush.

Public rooms are warmed by the glow of peat fires while the Bushmills Inn offers cosy accommodation in spacious and creatively designed rooms in keeping with the original buildings and blending modern comforts with the old character of the property.

The hotel's facilities include the award-winning ‘Taste of Ulster' restaurant overlooking the garden courtyard, taking in the original 17th century stables and wine cellar, and contrasts intimate snugs with whitewashed walls and warm mellow brick with well-aged timbers. Menus offer a unique blend of classical and new Irish cuisine perhaps featuring well aged, pan-fried peppered fillet of beef flamed in Bushmills whiskey or the restaurant's signature sticky toffee pudding.

The Victorian inspired Gas Bar is the perfect place to enjoy some friendly local banter along with a pint and perhaps a wee dram of whiskey - Bushmills of course.
