  • "A beautiful house in a beautiful location."

    Ideal for us visiting Ireland for the first time as we were able to view areas around the house as well as going further within the same day. The house made it a lovely stay for the whole family. My 3 year old loved being in the garden at the front and watching the vehicles going up and down the road. My baby loved being outside in the shelter of the sun too. Over all we had a truly lovely two weeks stay and will definitely be back at some point in the future.

  • "We had the most wonderful week at Granny’s, we were met by the lovely Lynne who couldn’t have done more to make us feel at home from home."

    The rural location meant we were blessed with quiet surroundings and animals a plenty enjoying the pastures around the property. The cottage was really clean with spacious rooms and bathrooms, a big bath upstairs and power showers in both bathrooms. Bedding was lovely and clean and the kitchen had room enough for the family. Granny’s was a great base for us to discover the sites and trails of the Giants Causeway Coast, as well as visit family in nearby Ballymoney. As many others have done, we left some Tips for Travellers in the guest book in the kitchen. Thoroughly recommended!

  • "Loved the place."

    Great location, comfy beds, clean and tidy. The only thing missing was a cosy fire for the colder darker nights but that’s not an issue for the warmer months. A*

  • "Great house and location with access to fantastic beach’s and sites to see only minutes drive away."

    House is well equipped with everything you would need. House is off a busy road but far enough off the road that you can’t hear the traffic but the road isn’t suitable for walking dogs or snail children.

  • "Upstairs more homely than downstairs, particularly the dining area which felt a little utilitarian."

    Terrible damp in kitchen/ dining area outside walls. Would benefit from sun umbrella to be used with table outside and more relaxing outside furniture to enjoy the better weather. On the plus side the property was spacious, well located, spotlessly clean with comfy beds and a well equipped kitchen. The shower upstairs was excellent (didn’t use shower downstairs) and it was handy to have parking right next to property.

  • "Great property at a good location for visiting the Giant’s Causeway and the coast."

    It’s on a working farm and close to the cattle barn which may be an issue for some. The facilities were really good. There was a well stocked kitchen and Angela made sure we had the essentials on arrival. We had comfortable beds and nice hot showers. It was handy to have use of the washing machine in the garage. It would have been nice to have a radio in the kitchen. Thanks for a great stay!

  • "A beautiful home, super comfy beds and wonderfully appointed bathrooms."

    Warm and inviting and very well stocked with everything you need for a weeks stay on the causeway. Bushmills had everything we needed and we were in easy reach of so many places. Our two children woke up this morning and said ‘we really miss Granny’s’. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

  • "Lovely little cottage."

    Very clean and well presented. Overall we enjoyed our stay. There is a problem with damp on the external wall in the kitchen which they are aware of and this did cause a bit of a smell if the windows were closed. Although we understood that the cottage is on a working farm we were a little disappointed that there is nowhere to walk the dogs from the cottage and think this should be mentioned in the details. It would also be handy to have a stair gate to prevent animals and children getting upstairs.

    Spotlessly clean and stylish too. Very close to beaches some being only 7 minutes away by car , We will be back most definitely so much to see and do there along the giants causeway coastal route which is stunning. We had a great time exploring the area and fisheries and having such a nice place to stay made it. Thank you so much to Alwyn & Lynn.

The property

Nestled in wonderful countryside on the outskirts of Bushmills, County Antrim is this family-friendly, traditional cottage, Granny's.

A detached cottage in the middle of a working family farm, this is the perfect spot for a rural escape with your loved ones.

Off-road parking is available for guests to unpack their belongings with ease and get settled in straight away; entering via the back door, you'll find a homely kitchen/diner with quaint décor and a feature fireplace.

Set the dining table for six and utilise the excellent amenities in the smart, minimal kitchen with an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer and ample storage space.

Head to the bright, snug sitting room with a mixture of traditional and stylish furnishings and make yourself at home on the cushioned corner sofa, paired with a film on the TV or an afternoon of family games, or snuggle into the plush armchair with a good book.

Granny's has family-friendly in mind with a spacious ground-floor shower room after muddy walks; hang a towel on the heated towel rail and hop in the walk-in shower to freshen up before dinner.

There is a handy washing machine and tumble dryer provided in the external utility room.

Climb the stairs to a spacious landing with views right across the beautiful countryside with the Giant's Causeway resting in the background; three lovely bedrooms await sleepy heads, with a king-size, double and twin, all with storage space and a travel cot available for the littlest guest.

A family bathroom offers a bath with handheld shower, as well as a walk-in shower, for quick and easy mornings to make the most of your holiday time.

A family-friendly courtyard is available to guests, with plenty space for outdoor games and taking in the peaceful surroundings.

Stock up on the essentials or dine in one of the restaurants and pubs in Bushmills, which is a short journey away.

Granny's is a great location for exploring the delights of Northern Ireland with Bushmills on the designated Causeway Coastal Route for stunning scenic views; head north to follow the footsteps of giants along the iconic Giant's Causeway, with the hamlet of Dunseverick a short journey east, home to a ruined 15th-century castle, Dunseverick falls and a picturesque harbour.

Pack the car and spend the day in Portrush, home to a family-friendly beach surrounded by limestone cliffs with plenty of watersports on offer, cafés dotting the coastline, as well as tours of Dunluce Castle, the ruins of a medieval Irish castle.

Another fun-filled day trip awaits in Ballycastle surrounded by glens, forests and ancient rocks; fuel up in the many shops and eateries along the bay, explore Bonamargy Friary, before heading to Ballycastle Strand for a day of sea, sun and sandcastles.

Granny's is a wonderful home-away-from-home to discover the wonders along the Northern Irish coast.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.
