Family trip to Northern Ireland

We had a fantastic time at Lyn's cottage. It was a great location to explore the coast and the cottage felt like home. Lyn was extremely helpful with suggestions for restaurants, places to visit and things to do in the area. It was quiet and peaceful and a 5 min walk to the beach. The nearby town of Bushmills was so quaint and had several good restaurants, coffee shops and shops. We will definitely be back.

Great location

A fabulous little cottage in a great location. Lovely layout with the living area on the first floor to make the most of the great views. Kitchen Well equipped with all you could need. the only small issue was that the seating was well past it’s best and not terribly comfortable which is a shame as everything else was just about perfect. Would definitely recommend this property

Absolutely perfect.

We were so impressed with this beautiful cottage, and it's location is ideal for nice walks, scenic drives and a good choice of places to enjoy eating out etc. Lots of things to do and see on the lovely Antrim coast. A special thank you to host Lyn and his agent Tracey as they were so helpful. We look forward to staying at this lovely cottage again soon. Hugh.

A little piece of heaven!

Just back from an amazing weekend at 12 Ballaghmore cottage. Cannot rate this property highly enough. Stunning countryside views, 5 min walk into Portballintrae and peaceful, scenic walk along pathway beside Heritage Railway Track into Bushmills. The property is very homely and is so well equipped. I have never stayed in self catering accommodation that had literally everything you could need. Like a home from home. Lyn, the owner was so lovely and accomodating, as was Tracey, who cleaned the house. This house will definitely be top of our list for our family getaways.

Cosy, comfortable, well equipped cottage in a perfect location

As lovely inside as it looks from the outside, this cottage-style townhouse is perhaps the best equipped self catering rental we’ve stayed in - it has everything you could possibly need - and then some! It was warm and cosy, light and airy and tastefully decorated throughout. The south facing patio area with table and chairs at the back of the house meant we could enjoy breakfast in the sunshine as well as evening aperitifs before the bbq (our weather was obviously good!). The cottage is perfectly situated for walks along Runkerry Beach, golf at Bushfoot Golf Club and tennis at the local municipal court in Portballintrea (PBT) - all of which we did! The owner, Lyn and his agent in PBT, Tracey couldn’t have been more helpful with booking arrangements. I would definitely recommend the property and hope to stay in it again.

Great location

We absolutely loved the location. It was quiet and very scenic. It provided easy access to the Causeway, hiking trails, Bushmills, the ocean etc. Lyn was very helpful and responsive to our inquiries. Given 4 of us were seniors, we would not recommend this as a place for 6 adults, rather, it would be better suited for a family with children. We also found the seating in the living area to be quite tired and not too comfortable. Would definitely recommend this location for younger families.
