"Magical"

Absolutely magical place Heather and David went above and beyond to make our stay everything we could ask for..a home away from home so peaceful and relaxing and all the added touches like a homemade cake on arrival aswell as plenty for breakfast and all the little notes all around was just exceptional and just added to our wonderful stay. The secret garden was amazing overlooking the sea couldn't ask for better will definitely be back and would highly recommend you won't be disappointed xx

"Charming cosy retreat"

10.0

This property has a lot of charm; living room very comfortable with huge settee and cottage windows looking out over the lough; great night's sleep on superb mattress, quality bedding; very cosy in the colder months with great heating; hosts have found ingenious ways to store kitchen items and a generous welcome pack is provided; lots of nice touches with toiletries etc. A lot of thought has gone into making this a very relaxing, private retreat from the noise and bustle, and the Secret Garden is a lovely addition, with a garden room to shelter in and watch shipping going up and down the lough

Nothing not to like for us - no cooker, but honestly, if you plan ahead it isn't a problem - everything else is there to make your stay comfortable - all appliances are listed on booking.com

"Pretty and homely cottage, beautifully situated with friendly helpful host."

9.0

I liked the proximity to the walking path down by the water. It was beautiful, and Carrickfergus with its wonderful castle was also within reach. In the cottage I loved the comfortable and really pleasant sitting room & bedroom. It felt good being there; the bathroom was all fine too, and Heather & her husband were friendly and ready to help with anything if needed.

Arriving at the property, I had trouble finding the road near the golf course, because the directions given may have applied for visitors coming from a different direction (I’m not sure). Also, the bread and muesli were disappointing as they had been especially mentioned but turned out to be just supermarket sliced bread (sure, maybe locally made but not the tasty crusty loaf I’d pictured) and very plain shop muesli.
