Cairn Bay Lodge

Quiet, quaint, quirky, and quintessentially Bangoresque. This accommodation far exceeded my expectations during my two night stay. The room was spacious and stylish, and the proximity to both the beach and the town centre made it such a convenient platform for exploring Bangor. The veggie breakfast was incredible, and the staff there are so welcoming. I'd highly recommend a stay here.

This is without doubt an incredible location. Cool, welcoming and enthusiastic staff is the icing on the cake, the cake in this instance being the food. Presentation of said food was amazing and the taste of the dish I had (Chillie Eggs served on a sourdough base) was epic, a real fusion of tastes that hit the mark. My friend had Eggs in Purgatory and be assured he was equally as impressed. One of Bangors hidden gems which sparkles like a diamond thanks to getting the front of house staff and food combination just right.

Great location. Perfect hosts where nothing is too much trouble to make your stay a relaxing and welcome one. Breakfast was amazing. Thank you Chris and Jenny Will most definitely stay again, hope to get sea view when I bring my niece and nephew next time x

Love the food, staff and chilled atmosphere, Chris & Jenny are lovely, you can have a walk along the beach also ' even though its nominated the dirtiest beach in the UK , which is a real shame, its only a 10 minute walk from Bangor (City) now, not at all a city but a run down town.

I just love this place - the quirky eclectic atmosphere and decor , the views , the proximity to the sailing club , the friendly staff , the beautiful spacious bedrooms with all comforts catered for including the supply of Voya seaweed products in the en-suites ! The place is spotless and caters for your every comfort ! Chris and Jenny could not be more welcoming yet hover in the background until you need them so you really do feel at home in their beautiful lodge ! I haven’t even started on the breakfast !!! Make sure not to rush it as this is the best breakfast in the land ! Make time to savour it before you start your day ! Ballyholme is 5 hours from where I live but the reward at the end of my long journey is this dream lodge ! Thank you Chris and Jenny for making the Cairn Bay what it is - a little bit of hotel heaven !

Beautiful place, I would love it to reach it's potential. We came in as a group of 3 'on holiday', we felt invisible for the majority of our visit, which upset me as in general customer service in NI or anywhere else in Ireland is amazing. The food was lovely when it arrived, and the waitress did notice that we hadn't eaten after nearly an hour. Tbf, they were busy, but although they did offer us a free coffee because of the staff shortages it just spoiled our day out as we had other things to do xx still a great place and setting xx food still incredible x
