Explore Cushendun

Known for

The National Trust village (almost the entire village is owned by the NTS), the Cornish-style whitewashed cottages, the Game of Thrones filming location (the caves were used for shadow demon scenes), and a tiny County Antrim village of extraordinary architectural unity

A little history

Cushendun was largely built in the 1920s by Clough Williams-Ellis (who also designed Portmeirion in Wales) for Maud Gonne's cousin — hence the distinctive Cornish-style cottages. The National Trust owns most of the village. The sea caves were used as filming locations in Game of Thrones.

📍 Local tip

The sea caves are accessible at low tide — bring a torch and check the tide times. The village is beautiful and tiny. Mary McBride's bar is a renowned traditional Irish pub. The coastal walk to Cushendall.
