Staying at Drum Manor was an absolute delight, thanks to the incredibly kind and welcoming hostess who made our visit feel special. The breakfast was great, satisfying both my husband (a meat lover) and my cousin (a vegan) and really set the perfect tone for the day. The atmosphere was simply lovely, creating a warm and cozy environment that made it hard to leave. We felt completely at ease and pampered throughout our stay, which is a rare find. Overall, would definitely recommend and visit in the future!

Valerie and Ken were just amazing! We couldn't ask for better hosts! The setup here is awesome. They have 4 rooms all closely located which would make for a great family getaway, no matter what size family. Te location is off the beaten path, which is exactly what we were looking for. We went to Castle Ward, Inch Abbey and Tollymore Forest Park during our stay and it was perfectly central. A nice, spacious, clean bathroom with a great shower was also a real treat. We woke up late for breakfast (thanks apple watch update) and Ken cooked us breakfast. Everything was perfect, even my wife's eggs, which she is very particular about! Parking was plentiful and easy as well. We will stay here again next time we are in the area!

When i try to come up with something I didn't like, I draw a blank. I wish we could have stayed longer, and next time we will.

Valerie and her husband were exceptional hosts. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. This place exceeded our expectations. Valerie cooked us an amazing breakfast, and on a morning that we were leaving early to go see the sites of Northern Ireland, she packed us breakfast and left it by the door for us to take. Her home was clean and cozy, as well as was our room and bathroom which had everything you may need. The home was perfectly located close to Belfast and Hillsborough and was very quiet.

Far better than many hotels in terms of cleanliness, comfort, breakfast and views. Our room was warm and big enough for two people. Toiletries, bathrobes, a hair dryer, slippers and towels were at our disposal. Delicious breakfast was made at times that suited us. Each evening we were asked what we would prefer for breakfast. On the morning we were leaving Valerie had no problem serving breakfast earlier than she normally does. She also gave us advice on what to visit in the area. Location is great if you have a car (which we had), otherwise you have to organise a taxi (phone numbers provided by hosts). Thank you, Valerie and Ken!

Nothing to mention here. Only positive experiences.

Drum Manor was an excellent find for a short visit to Belfast for a wedding. The property is located about 20 mins from the city airport in a quiet area perfect for relaxing and switching off. The host was a lovely woman who was very hospitable - making me some toast on the evening of my arrival, driving me to the wedding venue for the ceremony after I struggled to book a taxi and just generally being kind. Room was spacious with a lovely ensuite bathroom, breakfast was lovely (loads of pastries, tea and even pancakes available). Would definitely recommend staying here and I hope to be back again soon.

Not a dislike was that the Wifi details (password) on the welcome folder was incorrect so I struggled to find which network I should be connecting to. This was easily fixed though when I came to the ground floor to check and the lovely gentleman provided me with the right details.

Everything. This is the second time we have stayed and once again this place is exceptional. It must be one of the best of not THE best bb in Northern Ireland. ! Super hosts. Nothing too much trouble. If you are in the area and need a BB do NOT miss this one !

Nothing

Stunning B&B. The host was friendly, very welcoming, and helpful. The bedroom is well decorated, very clean and very very comfortable bed. The ensuite had everything you need with a great power shower. The breakfast was absolutely delicious from french pastry, fruit salad, cereal, yoghurt... and amazing irish breakfast.

Spotlessly clean everywhere, warm welcome by the hostess, nice family suite with two bedrooms/one bathroom, nice decoration everywhere, very good mattresses, wonderful view towards Belfast, very quiet in the countryside, good parking facilities.

Only sweet breakfast with pancakes already powdered with sugar, fruit salad, sugared cereals, toast with jam or maple syrup etc. Good for people who love sweets, not so good for our family, one diabetic. We took it as is, next time we would definitely ask for a non-sweet breakfast. No possibility to go for a walk in the neighbourhood, just roads around this place.

it’s such a beautiful homestead. valerie and kenny gave us such a warm welcome. made everyone feel at home. the house itself and the rooms are kept immaculate which is also incredibly welcoming. plus the house is really well situated less than 15 minutes from Lisburn, 25 to Belfast.

Stunning location in the countryside and very quiet and peaceful. Valerie and Kenny were excellent hosts and really care for their guests. Straight away on arrival the cup of tea was made ready which is brilliant after a long journey. The breakfast each morning was done to perfection and was a great start to the day. We even had a special surprise of homemade banana bread, which was excellent. Both Valerie and Kenny were able to offer advice on places to visit and how to get there the easy way. A great couple for a chat which is always a nice way to get to know people. A great night's sleep awaits guests as the place is so quiet, no traffic noise and really comfy beds. Every evening after coming back from a day out the kettle was made ready for the cup or tea or coffee and some nice treats to go along with it. Drum Manor is a real hidden gem in the County Down countryside and still only a short distance to Belfast. Valerie and Kenny should be really proud of what they have achieved with their Bed & Breakfast. Thanks for a great stay and will definitely return when back in the area.

Nothing, everything was excellent.
