Our family of five including 3 teenagers had an enjoyable weekend stay here while at a family wedding nearby. The house is spotless, beautifully furnished, well equipped and close to Portballintrae. I loved the spacious upstairs lounge area with very peaceful views over the fields.
The house is not very big and every bit of space has been used. The downstairs bedrooms were very compact and I'm not sure we could have stayed any longer than a couple of days. However for a short stay or a younger family, it would be perfect.
It was fantastic, the pictures really don't do the house justice, it's very nice. Will definitely be returning

We had a great time. The cottage was very well equipped (though kitchen area was a bit cramped) and though the third bedroom was small, it was quite quirky and led out into the garden where we had several super BBQs. The weather was a bit mixed but it didn't stop the boys playing golf every day (even in the rain) at the Par 3 - 9 hole course in Ballyreagh - about 15 mins drive away. Good butchers in Bushmills and Port Stewart not to mention M&S in Coleraine! French tea room in Bushmills worth a visit as is the café at Ballintoy Harbour. Giant's Causeway and Carrick a Rede are a 'must' as is Ballintoy harbour - though all VERY busy especially in the sunshine. Try the little train from Bushmills to the Giant's Causeway - good fun but you are quicker (and cheaper) walking!
Thanks to Victoria and Donald who were helpful throughout and very approachable.

We stayed as a family of 4 in this lovely cottage. It was very quiet although only a 5 minute walk to the little harbour/bay. Also in land 15 minutes walk to Bushmills where theres more amenities. We had glorious weather, very lucky with that as it showed off the amazing coastline and clear blue sea beautifully. Its a great area for rock pooling and climbing sand dunes! We spent a week here and there was no shortage of places to visit. We hired a car and nowhere was particularly far to travel to. We spent some time in belfast too which is about an hour and a half from here. Really enjoyed the stay, very comfortable place in a beautiful location. Thank you
