Of course, you are close to city life too with just a 15-minute drive to Belfast’s bars, restaurants and tourist attractions. Not to forget, the hotel is right next to the vibrant cultural life of Bangor and North Down.

Our on-site renowned Coq & Bull brasserie is your gateway to the taste of Northern Ireland - perfect for foodies!

Organic chicken and beef reared in Northern Ireland’s rain-washed pastures. Fish freshly caught in the Irish Sea. The Coq & Bull loves local!
The warmth of the welcome you will receive from the Coq & Bull team is matched only by the quality of its menu, produce, and beautifully presented dishes. We call it good, honest food.
