Bushmills, Northern Ireland, is a small town on the coast of County Antrim. It's 11 miles from Ballycastle and about 60 miles from Belfast. The river and a massive watermill constructed there in the early 17th century gave the settlement its name.

Bushmills is home to a variety of shops and restaurants, including cafes, bars, and fine dining establishments. The village is situated on the designated Causeway Coastal Route and at the river Bush's crossing point.
