Altahammond House is a boutique B&B located 5 miles from Carrickfergus Marina. It provides luxurious accommodation with free WiFi and private parking.

Buffet and à la carte breakfast options using local produce are available daily at the bed and breakfast. Guests can also relax in the garden or in the shared lounge area. The nearest airport is George Best Belfast City Airport, situated 17.4 miles from the property.
From our position it is convenient for you to walk the Gobbins Cliff Path, visit locations made famous by Game of Thrones, ride on a steam train at the Railway Preservation Museum, visit Rathlin Island and marvel at its upside-down lighthouse and the thousands of sea birds and Puffins that nest there. Are you brave enough to cross the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, would you rather tour Bushmills Whiskey Distillery or spend time exploring Carrickfergus Castle with its ramparts, dungeons and winding staircases with trip steps to deter any invaders? If it is the museums and galleries of Belfast that beckon you the City is only a 30 minute drive away or take it easy on the train or bus. Make food part of your self catering stay and shop locally in the award winning McMasters Butchers in Whitehead. Owned by your hosts at Mallard Cottage and Altahammond House they rear and sell their own beef, dry cure their own bacon and sell free-range eggs- you will not fail to be impressed.
