The breakfast

The next day, we went down for breakfast. Once again, the staff were very friendly and helpful.

​

We were taken to a table and given a menu. There were several cooked breakfast options and hot drinks to choose from. There were also tables containing various serials, yoghurts, croissants, fresh juice, etc.

​

We never felt rushed like some places make you feel and we enjoyed relaxing while having our tea, coffee and breakfast.

The must see Giant's Causeway

I remember the first place Debbie wanted to see was the Giant's Causeway. So we decided to do this on our first full day there.

​

Wow! What a place to see. This is a place looked after by the National Trust.

​

When we arrived, we were greeted and told parking is £12 unless you are a National Trust member. Gladly, we showed our memberships cards. (So well worth becoming a member.)

​

We parked the car and made our way over to the visitor centre where there is a cafe, gift shop and toilets.

​

From there we made our way to the famous stones. We were told you could walk down the hill or get a small bus down and back. This costs £1 for non-members but free for NT members. As Debbie struggles with hills, we decided to take the little bus.

​

There were plenty of people, as you'd expect, but it wasn't crowded or too busy.
