Adventurous Journeys Capital Partners, owners of the Marine & Lawn portfolio of golf hotels, has announced the acquisition of the Atlantic Hotel in Portrush, Northern Ireland.

The move marks the third hotel in the region for the US-based firm, which acquired Slieve Donard resort in 2021 and The Adelphi Hotel in Portrush in 2022.

The Atlantic Hotel, which has been closed since May, is to undergo a major refurbishment under its new owners, which the room count increased from 28 to 34, as well as renovations to the guest rooms, public spaces and the introduction of a new food and beverage concept.

Marine & Lawn will open the revamped Portrush Adelphi Hotel in spring next year, with reservations for overnight stays available from April 1.

Both the Adelphi and the Atlantic, which are located next to each other, will be open ahead of Royal Portrush Golf Club’s hosting of the 2025 Open Championship in July.

The Marine & Lawn portfolio now comprises six properties across Northern Ireland, England and Scotland, including Marine Troon in Ayrshire and the Rusacks Hotel in St Andrews.
