Set in the wild beauty of the Glens of Antrim, Ballyeamon Barn is a friendly, story-led hostel that makes a memorable low-cost base for golfers touring Northern Ireland. Its communal atmosphere and session house provide relaxed evening entertainment after a day on the links, while the owner’s workshops and local activity arrangements mean non-playing companions have plenty to enjoy. The property sits within easy reach of Glenariff Forest Park and the Causeway Coastal Route, offering dramatic scenery between rounds. Rooms range from shared hostel beds to a private loft and studio, so groups can mix budget and private options. If you’re planning a multi-course trip up the Antrim coast, the Barn’s social kitchen, weekly sessions and rural location deliver character, simple comforts and a warm welcome that complements a golf itinerary rather than competing with it.
