Ernespie House Hotel

Amazing place to unwind for a break

Pros: The location, hospitality from the staff and freshly made food.

Cons: N/A

Lovely hotel in scenic location, friendly staff and super food. Would return if in area again 😊

Pros: Exceptional staff, friendly and accommodating. Super food, great menu choice Warm, comfortable room.

Pros: A big surprise for us was a pantomime conducted by a local entertainment group. The meal and entertainment were very good indeed! Breakfast was good and promtly served the following morning so that we could arrive in good time for the Cairnryan to Larne ferry.

Cons: No a la carte due to the panto feature but not really a problem. To be really picky, the room upon arrival was too cool.

Pros: The hotel was well signposted and easy to find. The front desk and lobby was lovely and felt warm and welcoming. The room was ample for the two of us and very clean. It was very quiet at night and the beds were comfortable and the breakfast was very good and the coffee nice and strong. We really enjoyed our stay.

Cons: The hotel is clearly a labour of love and renovations are ongoing. We didn't mind at all and found it inspiring to think about someone taking on a big endeavour. Some might not like the rough edges in some areas, but we quite liked it and found it added to the charm.

Very comfortable, peaceful and relaxing

Pros: Situation, appearance, style, staff friendliness and attitude, menu

Cons: Difficult lavatory flush device.

A fortuitous choice.

Pros: Friendly and helpful family and excellentevening meals.

A very pleasant stay due to the friendly staff and food.

Pros: The breakfast was very good. The staff were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble for them. The location was fine for us. Avery quiet location in the grounds of an old Manor House.

Cons: The view from the bedroom. To be fair they are still renovating the property and grounds which was mentioned in the description. I would have appreciated a small fridge in the room.

Nice relaxing break.

Pros: Nice old building with an interesting history. Still has the remains of a large walled garden that you can walk around. Staff were very friendly and the food was really good - breakfast and dinner. Ensuite was a bit cramped but everything was clean.

Cons: Small issue with the window handle but the owner said they were carrying out further upgrades within weeks. No complaints otherwise.

Comfortable hotel full of character with lovely staff and great food

Pros: This is a really comfortable hotel with lots of character. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful which made the experience so positive. We ate dinner there and it was very good. Our room was spacious and comfortable and had obviously had some refurbishment recently. Keeping a big old building like this running must have its challenges and I wish them all the best in the future. We would definitely return if we were in the area. Oh, and it’s also very, very dog friendly (they obviously love dogs), which was brilliant.

Best value for miles

Pros: Welcoming friendly staff. Dog friendly and e, cellent food. The young chef is very talented. Breakfast is yummy

Cons: The only thing I would personally like is a bar area. Drinks are served to you in the lounge which is great service but I prefer to sit at a bar. I mean, that's not really a complaint!
