Cairnview Bed & Breakfast
Review
Cairnview Bed & Breakfast here in Ballygally is a genuine family-run hidden gem. For three decades, hosts Ian and Heather Lough have welcomed travellers into their lovely home, setting the tone with warmth, helpful tips and real local knowledge. The location is superb for exploring the Causeway Coast, close to iconic sights yet blissfully calm and you avoid those crazy Belfast City prices, which is a win in anyone’s book. Bedrooms are modern, cosy and wonderfully homely, with all the bits you need for an easy, comfortable stay: comfy beds, spotless bathrooms, strong Wi-Fi, hearty breakfasts and parking. It’s the kind of place that turns first-timers into regulars. Friendly, great value and impeccably kept, Cairnview is highly recommended for couples, friends and solo explorers alike.
