Heather was absolutely wonderful. She was gracious, funny and very helpful. She made reservations for us at a fabulous restaurant just minutes away from the B&B. She also phoned the shops to help locate a stuffed sheep for my 5 year old granddaughter. The room was adorable with antique furniture and the view from our bedroom window gave an amazing view of the sea. She gave us permission to walk around the property and provided us with fruit and bread to introduce ourselves to her two donkeys Harriet and Henrietta. Which was an amazing treat for us as well. We will definitely be staying there during our next trip. Loved it!!! The grounds of the property were absolutely gorgeous.

There is no answer to this question. We loved her and our stay.

Breakfast is fit for a King and Queen in a charming breakfast room with delightful table of china! Who doesn’t love a a good china cup and saucer! Heather is a great hostess and there is more food than one can eat!

Directions to this property are incorrect, as it is in Whitehead and not Carrickfergus. There is a 57 Belfast Road in Carrickfergus too. Coming from south, continue drive thru Carrickfergus to the other side of the Castle for about 3mi. House is on a corner on the left in a country area.

Lovely traditional hotel with charm, in a quiet spot just outside Carrickfergus Lovely quiet spot, nice parking for motorbikes and easy access to Belfast and ferry terminal, Whitehead and Gobbins cliff path or the lively Antrim coast road. Heather and Tom were fantastic hosts and the breakfast was super, cooked fresh to order. Werealky enjoyed our stay. Thank you :-)

Nothing it was a great stop off on our tour

From arrival until we said farewell both Tom and Heather were the most engaging of hosts. The property was perfect and met our needs. Sadly, it was a short trip but we both felt relaxed and nothing was too much bother. Both Heather and Tom treated us as friends rather than paying guests passing through. Before we left we were shown around the wedding barn.Wow! Something and somewhere where people getting married will no doubt feel special. Great starting point for our little trip. Easy to get to and find

Nothing

What really made our stay special were the hosts - Tom and Heather are a kind, wonderful couple. No request was too big or small; they really go out of their way to make your stay extra special and ensure that you are well looked after. The room was warm and comfortable, and the views over the ocean were gorgeous. Our absolute favourite part was the breakfast - the traditional Irish breakfast was delicious! We were sad to go, and can't wait to return to visit Tom and Heather again.

The location is somewhat isolated, which is no fault of the hosts. Just something to keep in mind when visiting. Would highly recommend the use of a car to explore this beautiful part of the world.

Altahammond House sits on an elevated site just outside Whitehead with beautiful views across Belfast Lough. The house itself is very nicely decorated with many period features. Tom and Heather are lovely people and such natural hosts. They made us feel so welcome and were happy to chat at length about the house, the farm, Whitehead and Islandmagee. We were able to make use of an external electrical socket to charge up our small electric car overnight. This was a huge benefit for us as there is no charging point in Whitehead itself. The breakfast was served in the lovely small dining room and the hot food was cooked to order.

Nothing. For us it was perfect.

We had a pleasurable stay in early October! The host, Heather, was very welcoming and cooked two wonderful full Irish Breakfasts. The room was spacious and the bathroom modern and clean. The location was great for touring the Antrim Coast and Belfast.

The driveway was a little hard to find using Google Maps from the Booking.com link, and in the dark. Inputting the address manually led us to the right spot.

Great place to stay. The views from the B&B are really lovely upon arrival. We stayed here for 1 night as we were catching the ferry the next day to Scotland. Heather and Tom were really lovely and welcoming. We had a lovely breakfast the next day. The house is lovely with a treasure trove of antique pieces!

Fantastic house, beautiful room, excellent service and breakfast, great hosts. Tom and Heather are exceptional and really do all they can to make hour stay as pleasant as possible. Highly recommended!

The house was far away from the railway station. But without luggage the distance was fine

The breakfast was delicious, a selection of local produce cooked beautifully.

There is nothing I was dissatisfied with , it was a lovely experience. Tom and Heather were absolutely fantastic and so friendly. They had anticipated my every need and my room was beautiful. I shall really look forward to visiting again.
