  • "The accommodation was great for what we needed - a base to explore the Antrim coast."

    It is perfect for 2 people and is well equipped with what you need. The view across the landscape from the accommodation is lovely. You do need a car, but you are within easy distance of Ballintoy and Bushmills. We enjoyed our stay. Not to be published as part of review: Suggestions for the owner - it would be useful to have a hanging hook or over door hanger for the bathroom so you have somewhere to hang up your towel or clothes while showering.

  • "Exactly as described."

    Beautiful views, nice little seating area. Worth noting that it doesn’t have salt / pepper / tea bags or anything.

  • "Lovely accommodation, spotlessly clean."

    We had everything we could possibly need for a short weekend trip to Northern Ireland. Found it very central so we could visit places such as Giants Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede, Portrush, The Dark Hedges and even managed a day trip to Derry. Would definitely stay again.
