Guest Reviews
- callum (9/5): Comfortable and all you need for a night away - Beautifully laid out Accomodation and very comfortable apart from the heat. Quite warm in evening even with heating turned off. Other than that, fantastic and would happily stay again
- Hugh (9/5): -
- Stuart (7/5): List of facilities deceptive. - The bed was comfortable and it was warm enough. Also very close to the sea front Seating was all very uncomfortable and no cooker. The sofa isn’t a sofa but rather a bed with no back support. I had to buy an air fryer to cook meals. Location is in an alley way off the street. Is “dog friendly” but no enclosed area so dogs had to be on lead all the time.

- Djessica (10/5): - The Tern Cottage is so cosy and looked like every detail, in everything was well thought about, to make yourself feel welcome and at home, so warm also! I absolutely loved the place!!! Well worth the money and Jenny and Ron were so nice, I even had my rabbit with me, which also loved the huge and cute garden
- C0RV (10/5): - Nice and quiet with a great pub and restaurant within a couple of minutes walk Nothing
- Linda (10/5): - Every little detail catered for to ensure you have everything to enjoy your stay. From freshly squeezed fruit juice in the fridge to sweets for the humans and treats for the dogs! Just a short walk down the hill to the village and amenities. Will definitely be back!!!
- David (10/5): -
- Russell (10/5): Perfect little getaway - Everything was perfect and hosts were amazing. Nothing to complain about
- Neil (9/5): - Perfectly sized hideaway for two. Snug, clean, comfortable. Could do with an oven or combi-microwave and larger mugs and drinking glasses.
- Daniel (10/5): Lovely, peaceful and clean - Lovely hosts and basics there when arrived. Nothing. All excellent.
- Ingrid (10/5): Trop court mais cosy - Très cosy très propre
La baignoire pour un bon bain chaud
L’accueil et le petit déjeuné tout était top Un peu froid quand nous sommes arrivées mais ça c’est vite réchauffé
- mc straw (10/5): - Everything was available and extra touches from the host. All toiletries supplied really comfy bed and it was warm. 2 minutes from the harbour. Also had wi-fi and a microwave which isn't on your list of amenities which should be as it's important. The only thing I could say is that as the property is dog friendly there is no gate in the back garden which meant we had to put a leash on our dog.
- steven (10/5): - It was beautiful
- Mark (10/5): Great stay with a great host. Lovely quiet property. - Great presentation very comfortable. Immaculately clean. Jenny had left us everything we needed for breakfast including some homemade goodies. Also little treats. She had thought of everything. Like a home away from home. We found the local facilities a little limited. Not much option for eating out.
- Ramona (10/5): -
- Geraldine (10/5): Great location - Excellent location in Groomsport. The weather was fab and was a great base for us on our week away. Everyone was really friendly, Jenny, our host, was very accommodating. There is a fantastic pub over the road along with the marina. Would definitely recommend Nothing
- Gail (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mrs (10/5): Exceptional - It was a beautiful location a few minutes walk to the town.The sun was out so set in the excellent garden with sun loungers and a wine. The place itself was wonderful and was left enough food for a continental breakfast. There was nothing I could find fault with this place even the price was reasonable.
- Audrey (10/5): Gorgeous cottage with a touch of class - Gooseport is gorgeous. A lovely harbour overlooking Cockle Island with it's tern colony. Ron and Jenny were lovely. Cottage was amazing, a super little bolt hole. Spotless and well equipped. Lovely touches with the food and drinks supplied It wasn't a 'didn't like' more a 'I didn't read'. Hadn't read the facilities list correctly, so, as there was only a microwave, I had no way to cook a pizza I'd taken. However, Jenny offered kindly to heat it for me
- Eamonn (10/5): Exceptional - Everything, planning to return as soon as we can. Jenny greeted us with a very warm welcome and was very helpful with suggestions of places for us to go. She even had treats handy for our dog. That we only stayed one night!
- Deborah (10/5): Enjoyable place to spend some downtime. In a good location for my purposes. Lovely walks nearby - Good location. Very peaceful. The accommodation was nicely furnished and very clean. The hosts were available if needed but weren't intrusive. Nice outside space to enjoy a morning coffee.
- Karen (9/5): Superb - Everything Would suggest a wee gas stove would just finish it off.
- Darren (10/5): Exceptional -
- Cairns (10/5): Exceptional - Absolutely loved the warm welcome we received. This place is home from home . Big mistake was not booking another night . Beautiful location and our cupcake (dog) loved the beach walks and she was made welcome too! Loved all the wee extras like the shower gel and shampoo . So much so we stopped off tkmax to buy our own lol A microwave would of been a nice touch as we could of made , soup , scrambled eggs and beans an so on xx

The AirB&B hosts very friendly and helpful. I am 6 ft 8 tall and loved the great quality bed and shower. Cottage has high ceilings, shower and bed made with tall people in mind. Lot of 5 star hotels could learn a lesson or two here. Cottage is so cosy and your dog is welcome too. Great places to walk with your dog. Noticed the whole village is dog friendly. Hosts had special treats and bowl for the dog. Instructions to find cottage location so easy to follow. Quiet location. We stayed in October and cottage was very comfortable warm. All kind of Breakfast items were available.
