Great accommodation in a lovely quiet setting overlooking the lough and our hosts were really friendly, welcoming and helpful. We used the cottage as a base to explore the area and the Causway Costal Route. We really enjoyed our stay in this modern well equipped cottage and would thoroughly recommend it.
Cannot recommend the home highly enough! My wife, adult daughter, and I had an outstanding stay. Our hosts, Niall and Janeen, could not have been nicer. Their home is adjacent to the house, but our stay was completely private. The house is very well-appointed, spacious, and modern. The kitchen and shower/bath are large and well-supplied. The view out over the bay and outdoor seating are fantastic. We had a car. It takes about 20 minutes to get off the peninsula, 30 minutes to Larne, where I had some business, but there are good places within 10-15 minutes of the home to eat and shop for groceries. We did day trips along the North coast - a great place to come home to. Our only disappointment was that we had to cut our stay a day short. We've had very good stays with VRBO, but none better - 11/10!
Niall & Janeen are the perfect hosts nothing was to much trouble and went over and above with their hospitality.
The location is stunning and for you Game of Throne fans the film location for the White Wall is across the bay. The property had everything you'd expect and good size for two and a small dog not that we spent much time inside as the weather was fantasic.
we would highly recommend Seaview Cottage and would stay again.
This place is a little peice of heaven. It is far enough out of the way to be relaxing and feel "cut off" from the hustle and bustle but close enough to the sites and towns for anything you could need. Niall and Janeen are awesome and are happy to have a natter or leave you be and let you enjoy the facilities. The hot tub is a must try...amazing Honeymoon in an amazing place x
The house and property are beautiful and exactly as described. The hosts were very nice and helpful and even brought us extra coffee, which is specific to their coffee maker. We had a wonderful stay!
Vacationers tip: Northern Ireland is wet and misty. I’ve also has some of the most beautiful cliffside views I’ve ever seen so it’s well worth it. Bring waterproof pants and jacket!
Perfect location to Browns Bay and Whitehead, which has stunning walks. Beautiful views of the Mournes.
Janeen and Niall were kind to let us bring our little cockapoo, who had plenty of space to run and sit out. Self- contained and modern with everything you need, with a little extra thought of robes and slippers. Very peaceful, with a huge comfy bed, use of a hot tub with beautiful views. So perfect that we had to extend the stay for another day/night. Nothing more needed for a relaxing break away.
This property is beautiful with everything you need at your disposal.Amazing starter pack on Arrival everything perfect.Our only problem the bad weather and as we already new the Area there wasnt a lot we could do but we enjioed just chilling .
enjoyed just enjoyed
A fantastic wee spot that has everything you need for a relaxing break and also a few extras. The hot tub was the highlight but also the location is right on the waters edge. I could see seals on the rocks each morning!
We were only coming from Newtownabbey so it was even better that we could find a spot like this so close to home. Browns bay beach is literally only 5 minutes away
Our kids came to visit the second day of our stay and the owners were great enough to allow this so we were thankful for that. The boy's loved the place and we made some good memories. We chilled at night in the hot tub and watched a movie in the cool wee side house that visitors stay in.
Definately a gem that we will revisit some day. Thank you Niall and Janeen
Janeen and Nialll were warm and welcoming hosts who were extremely accommodating. The cottage was beautifully presented and well equipped. It was a great treat to use their hot tub and admire the lovely veiws across the water at sunset. Highly recommended
The hosts Niall and Janeen were absolutely perfect, from check in to check out. The place was immaculate and had everything one would need. I highly recommend this location and when we return my wife and I will be staying here again! By far one of our best stays!
This was my second time at Seaview Cottage but certainly won't be my last. Niall and Janeen could not be more welcoming, the cottage is lovely with excellent facilities.
By far the best property I’ve stayed at. Accommodating and kind, our hosts went above and beyond making sure our needs were met. The hot tub was a huge plus and all the little things made the stay my best yet!
I booked Seaview Cottage after searching unsuccessfully for a glamping pod with a hot tub that would accept a booking for just one night. My friend and I were both hugely impressed with the property and facilities along with the tranquility of the location. It is a perfect location for a peaceful and relaxing stay and the owners Janeen and Niall couldn't have been nicer. One night was definitely not long enough and I can't wait to go back again.
This is a lovely little private annex property in a very quiet location. A great escape from city life that has everything you need. The hosts were absolutely perfect and there if you needed them. There were some lovely coastal walks in the area.
You definitely need a car to get around. Be mindful if you have an electric vehicle as the charging network is underdeveloped in Northern Ireland.
