Mixed Feelings

Reviewed By Leemacc1972

Very mixed feelings about this little place.On arrival very friendly member of staff checked me in .Our room was at the very top of the house ,I am not sure that its accessible to Those with a disability .The room was clean and bright and beds where comfortable. Tea coffee and water was provided. When I tried to take a shower the thermostat was broken and honestly the water would have scalded ! I reported this to a member of staff and the manager came to report he couldn't fix the problem ,there was no offer of a change of room ,so no shower at all. We are in the restaurant on Sat nite the service and food where very good and we enjoyed starters and main course. It should be noted that the accommodation is not in the same building as the restaurant and bar but accessed by a separate door in the street . Breakfast on Sunday morning was a disappointment, we sat down and where offerred tea and coffee and then waited for 50 full mins on our Cooked breakfast which would be excessive even on a busy morning but there was around three other tables to be catered for .when breakfast arrived there was no apology for the delay .Food was fine and hot when we did receive it.

Idyllic experience

Reviewed By Jolene B

Had the most wonderful stay at The Sands B&B in picturesque Rostrevor, Co Down. The B&B is just beautiful, lovely for a quiet stay and you can check out the live music sessions in town. Anne and John are so welcoming and nothing is too much, we had a beautiful breakfast, which set us up for the day! The views from the B&B out to the lough were really lovely. Our room was beautifully laid out, en-suite and the amenities include gorgeous natural toiletries, tea/coffee and tv/wifi. I would definitely recommend booking a wee break there as it was a wholely enjoyable experience. Many thanks.

Great property, fantastic host

Reviewed By Damian M

We have just returned from an overnight stay in the oystercatcher. I can't recommend this guesthouse highly enough. Spotless clean, comfortable and great food. The highlight of the stay was the host. Such a warm friendly person. She greeted us at the door as we arrived, showed us to our room and explained all At breakfast next morning she chatted away to us as if part of the family and made us feel really welcome, anything we needed was not a problem We will difinately stay here again when back in the area

Wonderful bed and breakfast

Reviewed By westin186605

Martina and Brendan are wonderful hosts who make you feel very welcome. The two of them along with their son Patrick couldn’t do enough. Our only complaint was the weather which meant we couldn’t explore the beautiful surroundings. The room was spotless and the bed so comfortable. The breakfast was cooked to perfection. We just can’t wait to go back and explore the views, area and walks. Marty and Lorraine

East Coast Glamping

Not what I expected

Reviewed By Sheila M

Maybe it’s me but I expected glamping to include a tiny bit of ease over normal camping and I expected an adventure centre to have thing to do and see. This is more “stay in a pod on a hill”. The car has to be parked at the bottom of the hill and then you have to carry whatever you brought with you up the hill to the pod. We made about 15 journeys and by that time all the good of not having the tent was gone out of it. We would have parked on a pitch in a normal campsite and had our tent up in half the time. The pod has a bed which is converted into a table when you get there. We had one adult and two kids so we needed it to be a bed. Not a table (there’s a picnic table outside anyway). It took 20 mins and we nearly lost a few fingers. It’s mega heavy. Think 4 or 5 stone and you have to lift it awkwardly. Then the bed was assembled. But unless you pay extra you don’t get sheets so it just a big cushion upon which you put your sleeping bag. At £75 a night for 1 adult and two kids I’d have stayed in b and b for less and not had to pay extra for sheets or make my own breakfast! We decided to make dinner and headed down to the hostel/reception building. We were immediately told to leave. Campers aren’t allowed in (another couple weren’t allowed in to use the washing machine to wash a soiled sheet. The receptionist took the sheet and said they’d wash it). We were direct towards a guy (also up the hill - so pack v light food). Now again it might be just me because the other camper said she hadn’t expected a kitchen at all and so she was happy with the facilities. I wasn’t. I’ve camped in a one star campsite in Italy. This was about the same. The hut is like something from “little house on the prairie” made out of logs but even in “little house” they had filled in the holes between the logs. Not here. The other lady’s kids kept putting their hands through the walls while I cooked!! (Note there was only one other family there - the place was deserted - even the hostel was empty locked and lights off on one night and we were the only people stupid enough to sleep in a pod on the side of a hill with no gates or security or anything). And the kitchen hut was just placed on gravel (note all the paths are gravel so our wheely pulley bags and cooler got bogged down going uphill - you must carry them!). No concrete floor in the kitchen so when you open the cupboards there are no shelves or anything - you are just looking at the gravel ground with some litter on it. I closed the cupboard door pronto and guessed that vermin would have no difficulty accessing anything brought in the kitchen. Hence all the plates etc are under plastic covers. We brought our own. The hot tap ( a heater tap thingy) didn’t work so we had to boil water to wash up. We ate at another picnic table just outside the kitchen hut which was nice. The kettle worked, the gas hob was good, the fridge was good but small if the place was full. The bins weren’t emptied for the three days we were there. Not in the kitchen, lounge cabin or the toilets. So vermin might be attracted. There is a lovely hobbit style cabin (looked octagonal) which campers can use as a lounge. It’s full with three tables and wooden bench around the edge. That was v nice. We spent a lot of time there. The toilet and shower are in a hut too. Just one between all the girls and one for the boys. But it was v v clean. The shower handle thing was broken but it was good hot water and I found it was good. And that’s it. There are no activities at east coast adventure centre. I saw a zip line but I was never given a leaflet of activities or anything and no one went near it so I don’t know if it’s in use. So nothing for kids to do that didn’t involve a car ride. The East Coast Adventure Centre do run lots of activities in Watrenpoint (15 min drive) and I saw their cycling depot in Rostrevor (5min drive) and I heard only good things about these activities but we didn’t partake as my kids are too small. The other family lit a bbq beside their pod in a bbq barrel with logs and it all looked lovely. They were v happy with the place. But the fire burned late into the night 15 ft from my pod. I noticed the roof of my pod looked like felt. There are no fire alarms and I saw no fire extinguishers. The pods have no ventilation whatsoever. The other ppl slept with their door open. I slept well and the foam mattresses/cushions are comfy. I’m glad I went to try out that while glamping sleeping in a pod thing but I won’t do that again.

Welcoming, clean, friendly, perfect for a couple

Reviewed By EllieDub

Spent a weekend with our two dogs here and only have good things to say about Didi and her team (Anne and Lucia). We arrived early and we were stunned and thrilled to learn that our cottage was ready. Cute and clean cottage, perfect for two people and dogs (we had a dog-friendly cottage). Location was a great base for visiting family in Warrenpoint and Newry. Will be back in a heartbeat and hopefully our cottage will be available when we next pay a visit.
