      The house is beautifully furnished, with fantastic views over the sea.  It has been renovated to a high standard with all the facilities needed to enjoy a carefree and really comfortable holiday.  In addition to that a really generous welcome basket. Its a lovely place to stay.  We took trips around the Ards peninsular,  Belfast, the Ulster Folk Museum, Mount Stewart and the Giants Causeway.

  • "We stayed at Rocklyn Lodge in September 2024 and cannot rate it high enough."

    It is top class and found it very comfortable, there was a welcome pack with good Irish fare as well as milk, cheese and butter in the fridge was just what we needed after a long day to get there. The kitchen was very well appointed with top of the range appliances. All the rooms were very comfortable and the views from the balcony were fantastic, we spent quite a few hours just watching the sunrise and sunsets. Would definitely go ago.

    Thank you so much for your feedback! Delighted you enjoyed your stay and it was lovely to meet you all. Maybe see you again sometime. Best regards Brenda Property Owner

  • "A fabulous holiday home, recently renovated to an exceptional standard."

    Spacious, well equipped kitchen with contemporary appliances. Would easily accommodate 6 people, the two of us lived on just one floor! The soft furnishings were comfortable and tasteful. A welcome pack of goodies greeted us on arrival which was far beyond any we have had before. Sitting outside on the balcony, just 20 metres from the sea shore watching both sunrises and sunsets was amazing. Would thoroughly recommend this holiday let and it’s excellent value for money - thank you

  • "A beautiful house with stunning views and a quiet setting."

    Very easy to relax in. Extremely spacious, beautifully furnished and meticulously clean; it contained everything we needed for our stay. The boot room was a really handy space for all our 'stuff'! The welcome package of milk/butter/cheese essentials and some additional treats was a lovely surprise. The owners couldn't have been more helpful answering our minor queries. Would definitely recommend this holiday home.

    Thank you so much for your very positive review. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. And thank you for your understanding over the heating for treating Rocklyn so well. All the best to your family. Brenda and Gary. Property Owner
