Crookedstone House

We arrived at 11pm at Crookedstone house after confirming late check in was okay. We couldn’t find any signage so let ourselves in. No one was around so we quietly called out for attention. A man came to the top of the stairs half dressed and pointed at our room and the bathroom and asked us what time we were leaving in the morning. Room was very nice but extremely warm with no way to turn the radiators down. Shared bathroom was very clean and nice but would benefit from frosted windows as the whole bathroom was exposed to the farmyard. The next morning we woke up and showered and went downstairs for breakfast. Nobody was around so we looked in the rooms that weren’t marked private but these were set up for painting. We weren’t sure what to do so just left. The stay was for me (30m) and my partner. She commented that we should would have been very uncomfortable staying here alone after our welcome.

The bed was clean but bathroom is shared and the smell through the house of dogs/urine was disgusting. Not recommended. Very close to Belfast International airport but extremely difficult to find down an unmarked lane. 5k drive in either direction to find limited food options. Better options locally.

Quite possibly the worst experience of staying in a hotel in Europe. 1. Wrong Google maps coordinates, no signage at the gates or the front of the property and it's been used as accommodation for many years. I wasn't sure if I was trespassing on someone's land. 2. Interior smell, while understanding it's a working farm, I could get over the smell of the general areas but in the room we opened the windows once and once only to be met by a tidal wave of dog excrement. The stench was eye watering. 3. View was over the back part where said dogs were housed, at least 6 that we could see moving amongst the heaps of dog poo, barking at the slightest noise. 4. Sleep - non existent, we slept in ten minute intervals due to the never ending barking and growling. This happened all throughout our sleep. 5. Room looked good, nice period features but as it was hot we couldn't open the windows due to the stench, we had to sleep in a smelly, room that had flies already living there. No fridge and the TV didn't work so not good at all to relax. 6. Bathroom is absolutely stunning but crucially it's in a separate room outside of your room. To finish, location is good, landlady was pleasant but my goodness I think I would have preferred to sleep at the airport because at least there I would actually get some sleep. Avoid if possible, £90 to hear a dog orchestra that was way out of tune was not something I thought I'd be writing about but something I want others to see.

Beutiful house with a clean and well furnished room. Large rear garden and peaceful surroundings, 10min cab ride to the airport. Landlady was very helpful and accommodating (late arrival due to flight delay). Overall a very pleasant stay and would definitely book again.
