I got details here, http://www.irelandholidayguide.com/est/38/16.html#tarrif, but when I telephone the number that is on the website it is a dead line. I telephoned enquires and they say they have no telephone number for that business, it doesn't exist. I gave them the address and they could not give me a telephone number for it either.

We got our accommodation booked in the last 20 minutes. It cost £60 for the 2 of us on a B&B basis. They took a £20 deposit and the rest is payable on departure. :j

I am delighted I got it sorted, was beginning to give up hope of getting any where to stay. Hopefully the sun will shine that weekend, the last time we went it rained.

Can anyone suggest any good restaurants in portrush which are reasonably priced?

The food in the ramada hotel is very good. The Ramore wine bar won best eating out place in Northern Ireland in that frank mitchell series that's on at the minute, Ultimate Ulster. Never eaten there myself but I have heard from others that it's good too.

We stayed in the Clarmont B&B. The room was small, basic and it was dusty. The breakfast was grapefruit pieces, cereal (cornflakes out of date from May 2007), cold burnt toast, tea, a fry and orange and grapefruit juice mixed together. The fry consisted of 1 sausage, 1 slice of bacon, 1/2 a slice of potato bread, 1/2 a pancake and 1 fried egg. Other people were served their fried breakfast before us.

We received a telephone call at 1:50 pm on Saturday asking us what time we would be arriving because there might be no one there to give us a key when we arrived. :eek: There was a lounge for residents use and there was an ivy plant in the lounge. The ivy plant was actually growing across the floor and up the walls.

We will not be staying there again.

Thanx Jo4 for the review of the B&B, 1 to avoid then:eek: thankfully my parents have a motorhome which is often on site in Portrush when I need a bed;)

Hope you had a good time at the mini rally was there myself and had a good day:beer:


PS very impressed with your debt management advice to your friends, they are doing very well :T :T :T
