    The owners are great and welcoming. They have lots of suggestions on dinning, pubs and nearby attractions. Even gave advice on the route to take to get there (more scenic). The room was large and beautiful with a large private bathroom. We had a full breakfast every morning. This is a true bed and breakfast. We even learned some Irish words.

    We stayed at this property for two nights as it is very convenient to all of the north and east coast attractions like Giants Causeway, Carrick-a-rede bridge, Friary, Dunluce and Kinmare Castles, and if you're a GOT fan, the lost village of Galboly and Dark Hedges were both close by as well. Our room was clean and tidy and had a double and a twin bed so would be good for a small family. Michael was very welcoming and gracious host and made several great recommendations for sights and local restaurants. The views from the property were amazing and its very quiet. It is not walkable for restaurants but they are a close drive of 10-12 minutes - we really enjoyed the Salthouse and O'Connors pub. A great stay and would book there again in future.

    Perfect location to explore the wonders of the Antrim coast. Our host Michael was engaging and even taught us a few words in the Irish language as a parting gift. A very pleasant experience with a hearty breakfast.

    Amazing B&B - with an Irish language bonus!

    Michael was an amazing host - happy to chat with us and to recommend restaurants and pubs in town, but also happy to give us our space. I enjoyed the chance to use my cúpla focal to converse as Gaeilge. Great room and amazing breakfast.

    Teach an Cheoil was an amazing stay and experience. Our hosts were warm and welcoming and we were even invited to attend an Irish Music Trad Trail (pub hopping & music) in Ballycastle with the hosts who play several Irish instruments, teach Irish music and Irish language. They are the kind of people who change the world by bringing back and continuing Irish traditions. Teach an Cheoil is a serene beautiful place with a spacious room, large bathroom, great shower, and view of surrounding emerald fields full of sheep grazing. The sunsets over the ocean were gorgeous too! Breakfasts were home cooked and delicious. We had such a great experience at Teach an Cheoil. We will definitely be back but will stay longer next time!

    The accomodation felt absolutely nothing like the usual hotel accomodation (impersonal). It was set in beautiful surroundings and was a solely family run establishment. The said family were friendly and extremely helpful and I felt more like I was staying with my own family, only better! I would certainly highly recommend Teach an Cheoil to anyone wanting an extra special holiday experience.

    Clean but not comfy

    Breakfast was poor with the only cereal being Rice Krispies and a choice of strawberry or apricot jam. In the fruit bowl there was one banana, one apple and two satsumas. The bedroom was cold and we had to ask for the heating to be put on and we also had to ask for some milk. There was only one hard backed chair so watching TV was from the bed and there was no communal lounge. On the positive side, the propietor was very welcoming and friendly.

    This B&B was great - quiet location, but only 10 mins drive from central Ballycastle. Friendly, informative and helpful hosts, large room and ensuite, lovely breakfast. Lovely music at times from owners who play traditional Irish music. Would highly recommend this stay.
