“The Fullerton Arms strikes me as a place rooted in its community, a family-run inn that's clearly more than just a stopover. Its proximity to the Giant's Causeway and those iconic Game of Thrones filming locations certainly adds appeal, and the promise of live Irish music in the pub makes it a cozy base for exploring the Antrim Coast. I suspect this spot shines brightest for travelers who appreciate genuine hospitality over flawless polish.”

Excellent Accommodation near the Causeway Coast
carved door friendly service
Stopped for lunch here initially and was impressed by the carved dragon door at the entrance. The staff provided friendly service , and I found the food to be consistently yummy. I found the Guinness to be the BEST I have tasted.
The extractor fan for the kitchen was noisy. i THINK there was some sound infiltration I could clearly hear every noise the occupants of the room beside me made.

Satisfactory Stay
family room spacious room dog accessories small area abrupt staff lacking warmth
The family room was spacious. It featured four single beds in bunk formation and a large double bed. The inclusion of dog accessories was a thoughtful touch (my dog loved it).
The lunch area felt small. Staff members seemed abrupt when directing guests where to sit. The overall atmosphere lacked a certain warmth.
