This is a beautiful house. It is very homely, clean and well-equipped. Milk, a packet of biscuits and many tea bags were provided, which were very much appreciated. The beds and sofas are very comfortable. There is a private pathway leading to the shore. The rooms are exactly as depicted in the images online. The motorway leading to the city centre is in close proximity to the house. I would definitely recommend a stay here.

Lovely in every way!

The coach house exceeded our expectations in every way. It is perfectly situated for exploring Belfast and for taking day trips to the Anterim Coast, Giants Causeway, and Derry. The house is very spacious with an updated kitchen and bathroom. My adult daughters loved having their own bedrooms and bathrooms. Everything is spotless. And communication with the host was excellent. And the ability to take a short stroll down to the sea and to shops and pubs was so lovely. We highly recommend the coach house

Great location and amenities

Property was exactly as described and lived up to all of the photos and details on the listings it worked perfectly for our family. It had everything we needed for a long stay. We had additional family members staying in the Rectory, and it was so nice to be able to quickly walk over for dinner or to talk. The property was in a great location, a short car or train trip into Belfast. I truly appreciated Abigail’s communication throughout the process. Thank you!

Lovely historic coach house in Whiteabbey.

We are an adult family of six who stayed at this lovely historic home. We all had our own washrooms and our own space. It was beautiful weather, so we got to use the patio every day. The kitchen was spacious, but we did not use the kitchen table as we ate outside. We had several nice walks/runs on the seawall which was just a few short steps from the house. Only downside was construction going on the nearby Shore Road. Overall a great experience!

Beautiful and well located holiday home.

A well presented and equipped home away from home that is ideally situated for exploring Belfast and the North Antrim Coast. Rosemary and Abigail could not have been more welcoming and helpful particularly in coping with several cancellations and re-bookings due to COVID!
