Cottage vacation rentals in County Down

Beautiful place with beautiful views, I couldn’t fault anything at all. One of the nicest places I have stayed in. We will definitely be back. Thank you

We had a great stay at Tara’s Cottage. It was clean, cosy and the views from the hot tub were superb! Darragh was an excellent host providing info and he quickly responded to msgs. Would definitely recommend this spot for a few nights away :-)

Stayed two nights in the cottage. The place was spotless. All the decor and furnishings were so lovely. It made us feel really nostalgic. All the trinkets and photos on the wall, the old telephone, made it feel like we went back in time in the nicest way. The hot tub was perfect. Would recommend to a friend

A lovely warm welcoming place to stay. Mike had so many personal touches to make you feel at home. The artwork and the garden around the house was beautiful with so much to see. A short drive to great hikes in the Mourne mountains. And with the hot tub and the film projector there was plenty to do in the evenings.

This cottage was excellently furnished, very modern and the decor was beautifully finished. Great sized space with everything there you could’ve needed, the hot tub was a great extra and set in a beautiful location to enjoy the countryside. The hosts were more than helpful and always quick to reply with any help we needed. I would definitely stay again and would recommend to anyone to book it without a doubt! Thank you again to Conor & Sophie for such a great and relaxing weekend stay.

Just back from the gate house 🏠 We had great time and very nice and peaceful We will be back soon Thanks Chris

Beautiful home- small quirky cottage with an enormous garden out the back. Well maintained and in a great location. Directly beside the Abbey church ruins, and a 10 minute walk to the town centre. Handy for Orangetree House for weddings! Host was very responsive to messages. Overall a really excellent experience. Thank you Janet!

We had an amazing stay at Laura’s! The place was absolutely pristine when we arrived. We were welcome by a small hamper of snacks, which was a nice surprise. The rooms are spacious, very well kept and equipped. The showers are really nice. The outside areas is also stunning, with lots of space for a furry friend. The barbecue and the hot tubs definitely made our stay more enjoyable. Will definitely go back! Thank you Laura :)

Margaret's cottage is in a quiet countryside location but local towns and villages are easily accessible. The cottage was spotlessly clean, had a really homely feel, and had everything that we (and our dog) could have asked for in terms of kitchenware, linen, etc. The locals were extremely friendly, as were the horses in the adjoining field that rushed over to meet us when we arrived. I would 100% recommend Margaret's place to anyone as a quiet place to unwind, or a base for some great sightseeing and lots of outdoor activities. Thank you Margaret.

Lovely stay with the family. Felt very homely and had everything catered for. Steen was super responsive and even allowed us to stay a bit longer due to the weather forecast. Thankyou for enabling a great week with the family.

Thanks for a great stay. This is a real gem on the Ards Peninsula. Local fish and chips was a great recommendation.

The cottage was excellent in every way. Well-fitted out and spotless. John and Roberta were responsive, engaging hosts. A month was well spent, indeed. We could recommend the cottage without hesitation!

We had a great stay at Bobby's cottage, and John was a great host. it's private and in the country but only a few minutes walk into Omeath, where there was a play park for the girls, cafe, takeaway and just beautiful scenery. the house was lovely and cosy and we all loved it as a family, including our dog, Luna 😃

Exceeded our expectations for sure. Enjoyed every minute. Host went out of her way to meet with us. Cottage did not lack anything. Area was quite and in the middle of nature.

I have no single complaint about our stay. beautiful views, peace and quiet yet close to everything. we will be booking again.

We have had the most amazing time at The Beach Shack after spending 4 nights there. We are a family of 7…2 adults and 5 children ranging from 5 to 15 years old. When we arrived, check in was simple, the cottage was clean, decorated beautifully and had the most gorgeous tray bakes waiting with instructions/guidance on everything we needed to know about the cottage and surrounding area. The views were stunning with the beach right on the door step and P&O ferries passing by regularly. Apart from spending a lot of time on the beach, we walked the path to Blackhead Lighthouse (in Whitehead), visited Portmuck and on the rainy day we went for lunch at Josh Mac’s in Carrickfergus and then to the cinema. The local Rinkha’s ice cream was also good to try! Natasha was always available when I needed questions answered and always responded promptly. We had a very enjoyable trip and hope to be back again soon. We really have had a super time! Thank you 🤩

We loved it. Best family holiday <3

Beautiful, comfortable cottage, very peaceful and quiet. Great host. Looking forward to staying again. Thanks Ivan!

I stayed at this lovely cottage for 10 days and absolutely loved the atmosphere. The place is peaceful, charming, and felt like a real home away from home. The hosts were very polite, welcoming, and always up for a friendly chat, which made the experience even better. I brought my dog along, and it couldn’t have been more perfect for us. The garden is secure, which gave me real peace of mind, and I was able to safely leave him alone when needed. The resident dog is also an absolute sweethear, and a lovely companion around the property. Parking might look tight at first glance, but I was able to comfortably fit my Toyota Hilux and still close the gate, perfect for those doggy clean-downs after walks. All in all, a fantastic stay. I really appreciated the warm hospitality and dog friendly setup. Already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommended!

Quiet wee bolthole - we particularly liked the firepit and hammocks . Not as isolated as we had imagined which worked out really well for trips out.

A fantastic place a home from home loved the place and will definitely be back thanks for the wee treats.Andy and julieanne

We recently enjoyed an overnight stay at this cosy cottage. The interior was spotless and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils/condiments which enabled us to make dinner without any fuss. We appreciated the breakfast tray, treats, milk and orange juice left for us by Louise. She has thought of everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay.

Had a lovely stay. Lovely & cosy. Great host. 😊

Wow, truly blown away by how beautiful and tranquil this gem of a place was. 10/10 across the board. Amazing amenities, photos don't do it justice. We truly fell in love with this cottage, wish we could stay longer, definitely coming back and staying longer. Great host with excellent communication and quick response. Can't recommend enough. Thank you so much!
