My wife & I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Derrin Guest House. Everything was to our liking, it's in a great location with free on-street parking readily available, and the area is pleasant for a stroll. We particularly enjoyed our breakfasts in the light & airy breakfast room each morning (and as it was winter the lit wood burner was appreciated); there were plenty of options, and two choices of cooked breakfast too. Ivy and Siebe are great hosts and provided us with very useful information to get the most out of our relatively short trip.

Derrin Guest House, Larne 4th August 2024 A delightful hotel , with a wonderful host. Ivy is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Her welcome (right at the door) was warm and also covered all the things we needed to know. The room was beautifully decorated. I particularly loved the window blinds – I’m not sure how to describe them - Pure white, rigid PVC louvres. Everything in the bathroom is simple to use, and works well. There is a heater already in the room, for visitors who might find Irish summer evenings a bit chilly. There was a wonderful soft blanket in the cupboard, if the quilt was not enough. In Ireland we are famous for our breakfasts, and Ivy did herself proud with an Irish authentic, hearty filling breakfast. Just the thing to set travellers off to a good start. THANK YOU Ivy, for having such a wonderful place.

we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Derrin Guest House. We received a very warm welcome, our room was spotlessly clean and comfortable and breakfast tasty and well cooked. This place is centrally located, close to train and bus connections which helped us as we were travelling by public transport.

There could have been a little breakfast menu, showing the various options available. We were not aware for example that pancakes could have been a breakfast option. Also would have been helpful to know that the direct bus to Belfast actually stops 10 meters away from the house.

Lovely top notch guesthouse. Small double room for me but ample space for a couple and lovely comfortable bed and quality bedding. Bathroom great, quality fittings and a shower over bath so flexible for those who like a choice. Very quiet at night but so close to town shops. Breakfast choices good and tasty. I loved the stained glass in the house. Nice and warm coming back from a blustery day out! Thank you Ivy, I'd recommend the Derrin!

Only criticism is the towels were crunchy, I like fluffy towels. Either conditioner or 3 in one pods make for crunchy towels. Sorry 🙏 wouldn't put me off staying there again tho!

Just off the main street in Larne, Derrin House is a comfy, conveniently placed B&B. It would be especially convenient for the ferry if you were staying over in Larne before heading to Scotland. Ivy welcomed us upon arrival, and explained everything we needed to know. Our room was large, and contained everything we needed for a couple of days away. My wife thought that the bed was one of the most comfortable we had ever found in a hotel, apartment or wherever. Breakfast was well cooked and fresh. Our room had louvred shutters rather than blinds, and once they were shut, the room temperature quickly increased, though that doesn't mean that the house or room was cold. All in all, a great spot, and we would consider returning at some point in the future.

No negative points to raise.

Had a lovely stay, despite making a mistake myself by booking a room or one when there was indeed two of us but the hosts arranged everything on the spot. Parking on the road in front of the house was free and easy. Hosts were super nice and friendly. We even got a proper delicious vegan breakfast despite me not informing about our diet beforehand! Huge thank you for that =) Despite having a single room for two we fit the nicely with our bags and had a really good rest after a long day of traveling.

Larne's a relatively quiet place but is a nice day trip and Derrin Guest House is a great place to stay over. Personally visited for the football at Larne FC so it was nicely situated close to not only the club but food, drink and shopping outlets. Incredibly clean, lovely attentions to detail. Friendly and welcoming owners and a great selection for breakfast. Bed was perfect.

Nothing comes to mind. Extra time to relax in the comfy bed 😄

This B&B was very close to the Larne ferry terminal and was well-signposted. We were made very welcome and were able to walk to the town, the promenade and local eateries without any trouble. Breakfast was a great start to the day. We were sorry that we did not spend longer there as we could have visited areas south of Larne before heading off north on the coastal route. Our host was helpful in answering questions about the area. We will remember this B&B if we use the ferry terminal again.

The weather could have been better, but there's nothing to do about that!!

The Derrin house exceeded our expectations! The house was super cute and clean! Ivy the owner was so nice and helpful! She also provided a wonderful breakfast and accommodated gluten free diet with gf bread! She offered two types of breakfast - you could even have cereal, fruit, tea or coffee, toasts and jams! The place was perfect and I would highly recommend it!

Lovely Guest House with beautiful decor. I enjoyed a great breakfast in the gorgeous dining room. Ivy is a welcoming hostess who provided helpful recommendations for the local area. My room was perfect - cosy and comfortable with nice lighting and lovely artwork on the walls. The Guest House is in an ideal location, convenient yet peaceful and quiet.
