Outstanding !!! Location was perfect for visiting family. Parking outside property was a bonus. The breakfast was phenomenal. Really. There was so much choice. Didn't have to buy anything extra. There was enough goodies to use for a picnic with our granddaughter. The private annexes was excellent in every way. Bed was comfy, bathroom was very clean and the shower was great. The little kitchenette had everything we needed and more. A tv in the bedroom and free WiFi. Sue is a great lady. A perfect host. She made us very welcome and was always available if required.

Nothing could have improved our stay. Except maybe, staying longer at Sue's😃

Freedom with our own access so not troubling the host as we went in and out. The variety of food Sue left for breakfast and snacks was really good including lots of fruit etc. Even freshly made muffins . The shower was really good too. There is lovely seating in the garden to enjoy as well.

The accommodation is an annex to the main house with a private and separate entrance. The location was very convenient for my needs being near to Bangor and in a very quiet cul-de-sac housing area. Parking was on the driveway. The bedroom was a good size, and very warm room, but the radiators could be turned turned. The double bed very soft with bedside lights. There was a separate bathroom and a lovely rain shower. There was a separate kitchen with fridge, sink and small table. The owner was very welcoming and friendly, and left lots of snacks and goodies

Sue is the perfect host and made me feel very welcome. The room was spotlessly clean, very well organised and ticked every box! Excellent location for restaurants, pubs, etc. great value for money too! If I am working in this area, I would look nowhere else than to stay at the Lantern.

We loved the ability to walk into town for dinner. The separate entrance was great. The breakfast on our own was super and the selection of items was fantastic. Everything needed was supplied. This may have been my favorite stay in Ireland. Thank you to our hostess.

Owner Sue was so lovely. Very welcoming and showed us how to operate everything. Room was lovely and warm and comfortable. Breakfast suppled was beyond our expectations. Lovely treat. Amazing value all round .

Nothing really. The only negative is that I like a bath when away but it wasn’t an issue to me as I knew that already.
