Situated 3.6 km from Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge in Ballintoy, Whitepark Bay features free WiFi access and free private parking.

Rooms have a private bathroom fitted with a bath or shower.

You will find a shared kitchen at the property.

Location and views are amazing. Recommend staying there for at least 2 nights to fully appreciate and enjoy and soak it all in. Especially given the weather changes so much so you want at least a few hours every day when it's not raining. 5 miles or less to Giant's Causeway, Bushmills Distillery, Carrick-A-Rede rope bridge, Ballintoy Harbour, and less than 10 miles from Ballycastle and Fairhead. The location is unbeatable! The beach is gorgeous, and the cows there are especially neat. Angela, who checked us in and was the manager for most of our 3 nights , was very friendly and helpful.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I asked for a single sex dorm and was accommodated. There was always someone available if I had questions or concerns and nothing was too much trouble. The staff were friendly and thw rooms were clean, my best hostel experience to date! The location is also super convenient with most attractions within hiking distance and a bus stop right outside jf you were going further/didn't want to hike. The village has all amenities you might need too :)

    It is a very large youth hostel. When you walk in it is very impressive at first glance. You walk through a covered walkway into a courtyard to find the entry. It has dark slate floors and lots of windows. A lounge with a large TV. There was no on-site parking but there was a free car park across the road not too far away.

    Everything I expected from a youth hostel, very nice and helpful staff and overall good experience staying there. The size of the room for 4 people was more spacious than expected. Also nice to have the opportunity to cook for yourself in the (shared) kitchen

    Great location. I stayed with my teenage daughter and her 3 friends and the room set up was perfect. The hostel was quiet other guests that I came across seemed to be families.

    The man on reception was really lovely. It’s a Youth Hostel, I wouldn’t expect much more but it was clean, cheap and the only place available. Impressed it had a free 24hr cancellation.
