The Marine Hotel in Ballycastle has been put on the market with a guiding price of £4.95m (€5.69m), featuring 51 en suite bedrooms and development potential.
The hotel is situated on a 1.4-acre site that includes a former country-club building with facilities like a swimming pool, gym, and sauna, which has remained unused since 2010.
Full planning permission was granted in September 2024 for 14 additional hotel bedrooms and 10 self-catering holiday units, along with an extended restaurant/bar and a rooftop events space.
The property offers the possibility of constructing 20 standalone apartments in the existing hotel car park, pending planning approval.
Ballycastle is well-connected with transport links and is located near tourist attractions like The Giant’s Causeway and the Causeway Coastal Route, making it an appealing investment opportunity.
The site also includes the former country-club building erected in 1994 with swimming pool, gym, sauna and jacuzzi which has been out of use since 2010. Full planning permission was granted in September 2024 for 14 additional hotel bedrooms, conversion of the country club to 10 self-catering holiday units and alterations to the existing hotel.
