Wonderful Cottage

We had a fabulous stay at Ashside Cottage. We were welcomed by Richard and Caroline who gave us a tour of the house and filled us in on places of interest in and around the area. The cottage was beautiful with parts dating from 16th century. It had everything we needed, including home baked bread. It was very cosy and comfortable and we enjoyed returning home each evening to relax and discuss the days adventures. The garden was amazing, it was lovely to walk up to the top and be greeted by horses in the field. The location was great for us as we were visiting family in Belfast and County Down.

Over the Top

Four ladies stayed here and still cannot get over the idea that we were blessed with such beautiful accommodations. This is not your typical vacation rental; it’s a home the owner obviously enjoys sharing. Immediately upon entering we were wishing our plans would have let us another day or two just to enjoy their home and gardens

Cottage Gem!

This is a magical relaxing place to stay! We were greeted by Richard & Rosemary and shown the entire house and grounds. Breathtaking does not do it justice! It had everything promised in the reviews. Very well equipped and the sun room became our favorite place, from morning tea to evening drinks. I highly recommend this place for anyone with a large party who wants to relax in the countryside. Note: It was still easily accessible to places we wanted to visit. 5 Star all the way!

Wonderful Irish Cottage

This property is a gem for anyone looking for a nice quiet place to stay, but is also an easy place to get around to all of the things you want to do in Northern Ireland. Rosemary and Richard were a true pleasure to deal with, and their home is so charming and cozy, we definitely did not want to leave.

Just Perfect

This property was just perfect for our group of seven. It had enough space for all of us to sleep comfortably. That’s not what made it perfect though. The house was cozy and quaint and full of windows to look upon the lovely view of green fields. The gardens were gorgeous to walk thru and admire. We got a warm welcome from our hosts. The fresh loaf of brown bread was the perfect touch. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. I would definitely recommend staying here and if I’m in the area again, I’ll be back.
