We loved staying here: probably the nicest building I've ever stayed in. We stayed as a family for my grandma's 90th and everyone loved it. Very impressive architecture and the manager of the property was very kind and helpful.
Strangford is a lovely town as well and we saw seals nearby.
Strangford is a lovely
My husband and I with a group of seven friends had a four day break at Quarry Hill church. What a fabulous time we had…. Our hosts were a joy…. Marty extremely helpful and it was a pleasure to have met him. The accommodation quite breathtaking…and 5 bedrooms with bathrooms…luxury!
Strangford lough was such a beautiful place…a good choice of restaurants and welcoming well stocked shops.
We will most definitely return…so much more to see and looking forward to going back to the church and Strangford lough!

Quarry Hill Church exceeded our expectations!!! The renovations are true to the methods and materials of the 19th century while integrating modern amenities which make this a comfortable home. The layout of the house was perfect for our family and is accessible for those who have difficulty walking. Marty was a perfect host- welcoming yet not intrusive. Small touches like a very generous and tasty welcome hamper, comfy beds and large towels make this venue perfect. We drank a lot of tea and wine, had long conversations around the big table. Many were surprised to sleep in in the morning!!! The house is well situated in Strangford, we enjoyed a few meals in the village, took the ferry to see the aquarium and enjoyed walks and drives in the countryside. We generated many new memories during our 10 day stay.

Thanks so much for your review. Lovely to meet you and we are delighted to hear you had a great stay at Quarry Hill Church!
Beautiful property, perfectly renovated for a great stay. Very well provided for, we were lacking nothing. Host provided everything we might need. Five stars for everything! The “home” is a unique place to stay. All the bedrooms were very comfortable and the bathrooms were very nicely appointed. We had an excellent stay in Strangford! What a great little village. Everyone was welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend this property.

Thank you for your review. "5 star for everything", that's what we aim for! Delighted to hear you enjoyed your time at Quarry Hill Church in beautiful (and friendly!) Strangford village. Best wishes!
I recently spent four nights here with my husband and seven other friends to celebrate my 50th birthday. Everything about our stay was absolutely perfect and I cannot say a single critical thing about it. Martin is a wonderful host and communicated with me frequently before and during our stay. He was always available and responsive to any questions we had. The building itself is so wonderfully restored and renovated, and all of the rooms are decorated and appointed beautifully. In my experience renting other vacation properties in Europe, having en suite bathrooms is quite a luxury, and this property has four! Everyone really loved having that feature, and the huge living/dining/kitchen space was perfect for gathering at all hours of the day. We had the most relaxing, unplugged few days full of fun and laughter. What a special place. I will make it a point to tell everyone I know about the property and I can't wait to return.
