About this property

200 year old stable conversion

Our property has been created by the conversion of 200 year old stables. We used the stables to create a modern cottage with traditional features.

The hot tub is only for your use, and the is no restrictions on how long you can use it. It is covered by a modern aluminium pergola which has roof slats that open and close meaning you can use it all year round.

It has a large bathroom with a large freestanding copper bath, double sink and large walk in shower.

The main kitchen/living area has a large living space with modern kitchen, including a 55 inch smart tv with features such as Netflix and Amazon Prime.



The bedroom has a massive superking bed with decorative wall paneling.


Situated outside the town of Ballymoney with all its convenient amenities and with award winning beaches, world famous tourist attractions and top golf courses just a short drive away. Nestled in a secluded spot with views of green fields and rolling hills, this picturesque Irish stone cottage, with stunning views and peaceful tranquillity is the perfect country getaway for couples wanting to enjoy a romantic and restful weekend or the perfect base from which to explore the beautiful North Coast

Inside the property has been styled with an impressive mix of contemporary and traditional. The open-plan kitchen/living space boasts a beautiful fully equipped kitchen area with modern appliances (washer/dryer, dishwasher, fridge), large comfy sofa, television. The high ceilings create a spectacular, spacious feeling. The bathroom comprises quality fittings with
the main feature being a large copper bath as well as a large, walk in shower area. The large bedroom boasts a huge super king size bed, complete with crisp white sheets and comfy pillows, beautiful wall panelling and window seat – perfect to relax and unwind.

The best accommodations in Northern Ireland.

Wonderful remote, peaceful cottage. Remodeled from a old farm. To house guests, away from cities and the noise of the city. Close enough to visit all the sites but remote enough to just escape.

Adventure in Northern Ireland

The cottage and its location was perfect place to stay as we explored Northern Ireland. The cottage itself exceeded our expectations. It was fully equipped with all necessities. It was cozy and comfortable for 4 adults. Eileen was a great host from the time we booked and prior to our arrival she was sure to provide all details needed to get settled. We look forward to a return visit in the not too distant future.

Lovely base for visiting the north coast of Ireland..

This is a perfect location for a couple wishing to visit the north of Ireland. The cottage is well-equipped (anything missing was replaced by Laura within minutes), quiet, private, and larger than it looks from the outside. Very comfortable bed, large bath/shower room, and spacious kitchen diner. We visited Ballycastle (and took the boat to Rathlin island). Portrush, Londonderry, and Malin Head, all of which are well worth the trip. Laura was an excellent host. We left some clothing in a wardrobe at the end of our stay. Laura parcelled it all up and posted it to us within a couple of days. An excellent end to a lovely few days.
