Had the foresight to book dinner reservations given there is not much around there. The dinner dishes were a bit bland. Odd that they did not have the Red Malt Vinegar.

The next morning, we had a traditional Irish Breakfast buffet, and it was one of the better ones we had during our 13 days in Ireland. Service was also very good for both dinner and breakfast.

The staff at the reception and the spa were both so friendly and approachable. One of the girls in the treatment rooms had taken ill however they didn't cancel our appointment, they just gave one of us our treatment then the other one after. There was a bit of a wait then as one had to sit in the bar area waiting on the other. I had the hot stone massage, it was so good. Seemed longer than half an hour too. It was relaxing and lovely. And they made you feel very comfortable too. After the treatments we had afternoon tea. You got as much tea as you wanted, sandwiches of choice with a wide range to select from and they were made to order, warm freshly baked scones with jam and cream, mini desserts such as meringue, profiteroles and ban offer. It was delicious. I have seen a similar offer for Dunadry this week, only difference being that the choice of sandwich was very slim and couldn't be amended except for dietary reasons. The price of their package was £25 so I think it would be worth a try.

This hotel is set is beautiful surroundings, it's not in the middle of nowhere, but it is out of the way if you're after a bit of peace and quiet. You will be welcomed graciously by lovely staff who are very accommodating. I came here recently to put my feet up for half an hour after shopping myself out in Ballymena. I was welcomed personally by the manager, who talked away to me, even though there was a busy wedding on. We chatted about their lovely wine selection and he offered me a seat to relax in their comfortable tea room. I really enjoyed my short stop here. I was really impressed by the professionalism, friendliness and elegance of the whole place.

The food was amazing the two days we stayed and the breakfast was lovely to, although I will say this if u go down half and hour before breakfast finishes be prepared for slim pickings. The living well part is pretty straight forward, a nice sized pool and changing area and also a sauna and steam room, and for the fitness freaks the gym is OK it's more for runners not weight lifters.

I checked in this afternoon and a wedding reception was taking place in one of the buildings. The staff was very friendly and helped get me settled in a bit early. I like the brick interior of the hallways. I enjoyed just walking around the grounds. It was gusty winds and a misty rain in the air, but coming from Arizona, that is a welcome sight. I ordered room service and although it was slightly longer than the 30 minutes they indicated, the food was great. I had the Chicken Tikka Marsala and my friend the beef lasagna with salad. I ordered Coke Zero, but was brought Diet Coke. Not too big of a deal, but not correct. For dessert, I went with the chocolate fondant with vanilla ice cream. It also came with chocolate pudding that could be added to the cake. Damn, it was good! Happy finish indeed! The one thing that is a little odd is the bed situation. I ordered 2 queen beds and it more closely resembles two cots with wheels. Let's just say that you couldn't really have much fun, if you know what I mean. If you are not overly close with person/people sharing your room, you will be after staying here. While the beds are separate, they are side by side and basically one large bed.

When I was a child we used to eat in the Curran Court a fair but, and it was my understanding it was closed. I didn't realise until recently that it had reopened in a new location, and I heard quite a number of good reports, so thought I'd give it a go. We went along for Sunday dinner as a group of four adults. The expectations that I had due to what I'd been told and had read online were certainly met and exceeded. The have a fantastic menu that gives lots of choice and something for everyone, without giving you that sinking feeling of being handed a massive menu and thinking that they may be a jack of all trades and a master of none. As it was a Sunday, we all opted for a traditional dinner, there were 2 x beef, 1 x chicken, and i had the salmon, and with this we got all the usual trimmings and fixings. The orders were taken on tablet devices (very futuristic for Larne!!) :) and the food arrived quickly and evetything was present and correct. The food itself was delicious and very fairly priced for what we had, suffice to say there was no room for pudding, although the sweet list looked very tempting. Definitely next time! Well recommended.
