Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Eleanor & Oliver are such lovely hosts, they made us feel very welcome and treated us like family. Our little 2yr old son is very fond of them, they went out of their way to make sure he had everything he needed to enjoy his stay. The self catering cottage was fully equipped with everything we could need and more, it was spotless, well heated and had books, dvd's, toys, tea/coffee sugar & milk. Both bedrooms were en-suite and another small toilet room (3 toilets, a bath with shower and a large seperate shower), kitchen/dining room with large fridge freezer, cooker, microwave, kettle and washing machine (cooking utensils, cutlery, crockery and everything you could ever need!), open plan living room with comfy sofas, both bedrooms and living room have a TV with free view and free wifi. I must add that the mattresses are amazing, best sleep in years! We will always recommend Drumgart to people now, warm smiles and a truly first class service all round. Such a wonderful family, thank you for having us! Mimi, Felix & Ragnar.

Our daughter booked this B&B and has stayed here 3 times before. I see why this comes highly recommended! A lovely home in a great location. Eleanor and Oliver were the most gracious hosts. The accommodations were impeccable and the breakfast….oh the breakfast! Full Irish breakfast every morning if you wish. Such a homey, family feel. Could not recommend this more! Best place we have stayed in the UK. Sad to leave and most definitely will be back!

Here is what I learned what a Full Ulster is. This Bed and Breakfast is fabulous. Close walking distance to town and pubs. The Presbyterian church welcomed us next door also. The host and hostess were the best. Immaculate home with the tastiest breakfast. I will be back for sure!

Stayed 4 nights in the self catering cottage. Fantastic little place, warm and friendly, home from home. Made very welcome and a lovely departing gift of homemade fudge. Great location for all tourist attractions and nice local amenities.

the only thing wrong with this b&b is that we had to leave, Thanks once again Eleanor and Oliver you always make our stay special. Anyone visiting the Antrim coast should start there trip 5 minutes from the Larne ferry terminal in Ballycarry at Drumgart bed and breakfast they will be assured of a fantastic stay at the friendliest home you can imagine.

This was place was just perfect for our stay. The room was well equipped with tv, tea and coffee, hairdryer (a must for any woman) with an ensuite bathroom and the views were stunning. Breakfast was substantial and was exactly what we needed to start the day. Eleanor was the perfect host in every way and absolutely faultless, nothing was too much trouble. I travel to Northern Ireland for the weekend every two weeks (my partner lives there) and we are always looking for good quality B&B's to stay (hotels just don't give you that personal touch or homely feel - or views of the fantastic N.I. countryside) and we will definitely stay here again.

Found this Farmhouse late in the afternoon after having driven far enough. We were given a family room which was very nice . Ensuite was good size with lots of water pressure. As it was off the beaten track absolutely no road noise. Very helpful host who advised us where to eat (local Golf club restaurant) just 5 mins drive down the road and easy to find.
Would recomend this to others as a one night stopover after touring down the Atrium Coast from overnight at Bushmills

We really enjoyed our stay at Drumgart. Our room was comfortable, quiet and we slept well. Eleanor and Oliver were fantastic hosts. We enjoyed visiting with them. They even called a local restaurant for us to find out how late they would serve dinner, The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. We would stay here again if we return to this area.

We stayed here on the first night of our road trip around Ireland. Not too far from Belfast City Airport , so ideal for a first night. A very homely place and immaculately clean. The furniture is a little old fashioned but that makes a change from standard hotel rooms and adds to the charm. Breakfast was great and really set us up. I have a lactose intolerance and Eileen took the time to check breads etc and to make sure I had plenty to eat. I would happily recommend this to my friends.

What a gem! Eleanor and Oliver are the best hosts, so warm and friendly and extremely helpful. The beautiful Irish breakfast is outstanding. The double room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean with our much appreciated tea and coffee available. We highly recommend Drumgart as a must if you would like a quiet place not far from Belfast. The train is close for a quick trip to Belfast with free parking at the local station. We would have loved to have stayed longer!

Room Tip: A great get away if you don't want to be in the city, however, close by train.
