BushmillsBushmills is a 'Conservation Village', situated in an 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty'. The home of the famous Bushmills Distillery, Bushmills is a pleasant rural village which is well accustomed to welcoming tourists from around the world. The River Bush, on whose banks it is built, is an excellent salmon fishing river. A new Millennium Walk has been provided on the river bank, linking the town's two bridges. There are also plans to establish a steam railway from near the old Tramway Station to the Giant's Causeway along the route followed by the original Causeway Tram (the world's first hydroelectric train). Acorn Lodge is in nearby Tramway Drive. [Update: this has now been built.] Bushmills is about one mile from Portballintrae. The road offers scenic views of the wooded hills of Dundarave, the meandering River Bush, Bushfoot Golf Course, Runkerry and the coast.
Bushmills and its shops are a 5 minute walk away from Acorn Lodge.
