So cozy!! A comfortable and perfect little getaway that is within driving distance of plenty of things to do, and a wonderful place to spend time if you want a place to relax away from the busy areas. The hosts were wonderful, and Paul was very prompt with communication. They had goats, ducks, geese, and a rooster during our visit! It was a lovely environment to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning, is a cup of tea in the evening. The hosts even left out a bucket of grain so we could feed the goats!We were only here for a short stay of 2 nights, but we would have loved to stay longer! If we travel back to Northern Ireland soon, we will be checking them out again! Highly recommend!

What a wonderful wee Gem of a cottage. Compact, cosy and clean with everything we needed for our week long stay. There is a combi microwave and small fridge, we used at supper time and breakfast, just perfect for us as we found lots of interesting local places to eat. We especially liked and used the log burner in the evenings. Paul and Laura's hospitality was second to none. The cottage was only an hour's drive from Belfast and fairly close to the Giants causeway and lots of other interesting places visit and sights to see including walking distance of the Dark Hedges. Highly recommended for a quiet restful base .

Great location for an adventure

Absolutely beautiful barn conversion...Paul is a superb host and it is the little touches (he knew we were getting up early and so had organised some breakfast for us) that make the difference. Said I will definitely go back when it's snowing to light the log burner. Fantastic stay and will highly recommend.

Lovely Getaway!

This quaint little stay was perfect for the two of us. Surrounded by fields and gorgeous properties, we could easily get to Giants Causeway and explore the coastal towns! I recommend this stay to everyone! The owners were gracious and so welcoming, it was the cherry on top!

Fantastic Find, What a Gem!

It's hard finding a place to stay when in the US, but we kept coming back to this spot on VRBO. It was fantastic, so quiet & scenic & Paul & his family were lovely, so friendly & had lots of suggestions on what to do. The cottage was extremely clean, & being it was a chilly night so we lit the fireplace, how nice was that! The bathroom was great, we will absolutely stay there again. We also bought some few range eggs from them; such a lovely find.

Small comfy cottage.

The lack of a cooker, meant we had to do things differently to what we'd normally do (we like to cook) but the location was perfect. Lovely to see host's chickens and goat in the grounds. The Dark Hedges are walkable from the cottage and we went very early so had them to ourselves. Sadly we had bad weather so only got to do one walk, but my favourite visit was again very early to see the Giant's Causeway, which was amazing. These things are mobbed with tourists, so early lets you see them alone. Great cottage and lovely owners.

Convenient Location, Pet Friendly. Great Host!

We stayed two nights, wish we had stayed a third; although not on the coast, it’s close enough to hit all of the locations you want to see in the area and is just a short stroll to the Dark Hedges. Not really a cottage, more of a single room building; it has no kitchen facility, enclosed toilet or bedroom; all of which surprised us. Heating consists of two portable heaters which we couldn’t figure out and a wood burning stove with a plentiful supply of wood which we used our second evening. The foyer consisted of two sinks, a toilet and shower; the shower was the only thing behind a curtain; there was a sliding, barn type, wood door to the main room. Nice towels were provided. The “bathroom area” could benefit with towel rails, some hooks, a toilet roll holder and a mirror. The main room has a double bed, two loveseats and table with two chairs. It’s actually a cute, clean and comfortable property, especially if you bring a pet. They provided a kettle, microwave, small fridge, toaster and espresso maker with some coffee pods; we had expected cooking facilities as it was billed as a cottage. The owner, Paul, who lives on the property in the main house, was very responsive; we met him our last evening at the property watching the sunset from the outdoor furniture. Instructions were detailed including how to find them as GPS doesn’t take you to the property, The property was pleasant, quiet, sweetly decorated and clean. They’re pet friendly and our dog was very comfort
