The Bushmills Inn is a charming four-star hotel steeped in history, located in the heart of the village of Bushmills—just moments from the world-famous Giant’s Causeway and Royal Portrush Golf Club. Once a coaching inn dating back to the 1600s, it has been lovingly restored into a warm, atmospheric retreat with open fires, nooks, and traditional oak-beamed interiors. The 41 rooms and suites blend classic comfort with contemporary touches, many featuring four-poster beds and views over the River Bush. Its restaurant and bar are local institutions, serving seasonal Irish fare and rare whiskies by candlelight. For golfers, walkers, or whisky lovers touring the North Coast, Bushmills Inn is a perfect base—full of soul, character, and hospitality. With cobbled courtyards, hidden libraries, and a timeless feel throughout, it offers a genuinely Northern Irish experience that’s both refined and deeply welcoming.
