For golfers planning a links-focused trip to Northern Ireland, The Bushmills Inn makes a convenient historic base on the Causeway Coast. The property blends coaching-inn character with boutique comfort and sits in the village that hosts the Old Bushmills Distillery, close to the Giant’s Causeway and Royal Portrush. Mornings can start with locally sourced breakfasts before heading out to nearby championship and links courses; evenings offer hearty fare in the restaurant or a relaxed drink in the bar, while the hotel’s intimate cinema and cosy rooms provide low-key downtime after a long day on the course. With individually styled rooms and on-site dining, the Inn is suitable for small groups or couples who want easy access to several top coastal courses without staying in a modern resort.
