The North Road

To end our tour of Ireland we headed down from Bushmills to Dublin along the North Road, through Cushendun, Cushendall, and Carnlough.

Dunluce Castle, Giant’s Causeway, & Smuggler’s Inn

We walked around Dublin On Sunday, then at night drove up to Bushmills in North Antrim. On Monday, which started in a very rainy way but then turned gorgeous, we toured Dunluce Castle, Giant’s Causeway, and the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge.

As the sun was setting we found ourselves at the Smuggler’s Inn. Man, what an outstanding hotel – The Smuggler’s Inn is a great place to stay if you ever make it to Bushmills on the north coast of Ireland. I recommend the Dunluce room. While you’re there you of course have to do a taste test of Bushmills Whiskey, and wash it down with a glass of Guiness beer! For an excellent dinner check out Bushmill’s Inn.
