The concept brings together the manufacturing heritage of the city – textiles, rope and shipbuilding – with the timeless beauty of the Causeway Coast and an appreciation of the natural world.

The hotel is seen as a giant town house which should be as restful and comfortable as possible and an escape from the world outside. The design of the spaces collide homely touches, natural materials and graphic splashes of colour. On the ground floor guests are greeted with a lively front room full of plants. Above the rooms are self-contained and the arrangement allows for sleeping, eating, cooking and washing.
