Beautiful sea-view, country cottage feel townhouse

ColleenRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Such a beautiful stay at the downstairs cottage!! Norita was amazing, greeted us on arrival & explained everything, had fresh eggs & bread for us & some cookies. So many lovely little touches around the house including sweets on the pillows for the kids & a beautifully made cot for my little one. Location is stunning with gorgeous views and a lovely little garden for the kids including a tree house & swing. Couldn’t recommend this place enough. Absolutely stunning 😍

2 bed house, close to West Strand, Portrush.

HazelRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Even before we booked David was communicative and helpful. On arrival check-in was extremely simple, and the house was amazing. Decorated tastefully and in neutral colours my friend and I had an extremely relaxing stay Location can’t be beaten, it’s on a quiet road, very close to the sea With an easy 20 minute walk into town. We wanted for nothing, there’s a larger way of equipment, and great basics for cooking. David leaves an excellent guide to the amenities in the area with some very helpful tips and directions. On leaving, I managed to leave my passport and David went above and beyond sending it back to me, I’m eternally grateful for that.

West Strand House walk to Royal Portrush Golf Club

DanielleRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Stayed here with other half and two boys (14y & 10y). House is well located within easy walking distance of the beach and the town as well as local shop. House is well decorated and has everything that you will need for a stay. Communication was brilliant. Garden is a lovely sun trap (even in april) in the evening and we were able to sit outside and watch the boys play swing ball. Would definitely recommend.

Sandybank - Game of Thrones

StephenRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Dave's house was perfect for our family. It was very clean and there was plenty of room, with the kitchen kitted out with everything you could possibly need. Only a few minutes walk from the beach which is one of the most beautiful on the North Coast. The house has the bedrooms on the ground floor which means you can see the beach from the living room and kitchen which are situated upstairs. Dave was really friendly and helpful and I would definitely stay at his place again. Thanks for a brilliant stay!

Large House, Stunning Views & Private Beach Access

AmyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
The perfect house for a stunning family escape. The house was great for our family of 6 adults and 1 toddler, plenty of room for everyone with ample bathrooms. The house had stunning views and the added treat of a path to a private beach. Another added bonus was the selection of baby equipment available, it really made everything so easy. Alistair was a very helpful, friendly and responsive host, nothing was too much trouble. It really felt like a home away from home!

Luxe Beachfront Retreat | Sauna | Cinema | Nature

JoanneRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Six girlfriends stayed for three nights in this beautiful home. Julion was so helpful and accommodating. This accommodation is perfect for friends to gather. There is plenty of space, well-appointed rooms, and extra touches. For us, we wanted to walk and swim, and this was perfect with access to the beach and outside hot shower. We even used the sauna a few times, too. We had a lovely girlie night, pampering and watching movies. The kitchen was great, perfect for us all to sit and dine in whilst watching the sunset. I would strongly recommend this place for a girls' trip/retreat. Dunfanaghy is excellent for restaurants and drinks and is walkable from the house. NONE of us could find a fault with the house, though it did take us a few tries using the Quooker tap. We will be back and some of the girls are considering booking again for a family trip. We couldn't recommend this accommodation enough. From Joanne, Amanda, Sarah, Donna, Racheal & Sarah.

We had a wonderful stay at Christine’s place over the Easter holidays. It was a perfect space for our family and a lovely home. Full of everything we could possibly need. The setting is beautiful and the children loved walking down to the beach! Christine provided us with all of the information we needed and was excellent at communicating. We would love to go back. A brilliant place to rent!

Cosy modern seaside house

Sarah-JaneRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a fantastic stay at Sean’s place! The house was so comfortable, spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. The location is amazing-only a 5 minute walk to the beach with stunning views across Enniscrone and a 5 minute walk to the town itself which has some lovely pubs and places to eat. Communication with Sean was excellent and really clear instructions for the house were provided- would not hesitate to recommend a stay here!

Hidden gem 3 minutes walk to stunning Beach

JohnRating, 5 stars7 months ago
We had the pleasure of staying at Charlie's while attending a family reunion. The house was very homely with everything you might need, including the smaller details like torches for walking at night and jigsaws and games to keep you occupied if the weather is bad. Charlie's instructions were clear and comprehensive and we found him to be quick to respond and very helpful. Everyone in our group was happy with the accommodation. For those like us without transport, the beach is a quick walk from the house and the bus stops the top of the road.

We really enjoyed our stay and would love to return. Thank you, Connie!xx

New! House Private Beach Maghery

SarahRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a truly amazing time at Anne-Marie’s house. In 4 nights we spent lots of time on the kayaks, and on the beach BBQing and watching the sunset, and taking dips before breakfast. We loved watching the hares hop up the drive in the early mornings and we had a seal visit the bay. We climbed Errigal, took a day trip to Arranmore on the ferry, took a walk up to Crohy Head and enjoyed Maghery beach. The house is beautiful, and filled with light, and we slept very peacefully. We really could not have loved our stay here more. Perfect!

Sheephaven Resort

JosephineRating, 5 stars4 months ago
The most amazing house we've stayed in to date. The views from the house are heavenly and the pictures don't do it justice. Being able to walk across the garden to the beach is amazing. Great facilities in the house. The house was always warm. We've stayed in Downings numerous times but the location of this house is perfect. The views are outstanding and being able to walk to the pub, cafes, hotels and shop etc is a major bonus for Donegal. It's also pet friendly which is fantastic and the house has gates on the stairs so the dogs can't wander. The hosts couldn't be more helpful and responsive to any queries. Can't wait to go back again!

Just back from a lovely weekend at Heather’s fantastic house. The whole property was really clean, tidy and had everything we needed for our stay. The enclosed back area was great for our dog and it was a super sun trap too. Great location, just a few minutes walk to the promenade and harbour. A proper 5 star letting, will definitely book again.

VictorRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Maggie really is the perfect host. Her beautiful house is spotless top to bottom. Easy to find and so peaceful and quiet. She met us there and gave us a quick tour and showed us how everything worked. A charming lady with great knowledge about the local area. Had a relaxing 3 night break just after Xmas to recharge the batteries in lovely surroundings. Fab conservatory to chill out in and watch the world go by. We can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend for a quiet break in an excellent house with the perfect host. Thank you Maggie. See you soon.
