We had a wonderful stay at Josie’s lovely home! After a warm welcome from our host upon arrival, she showed us a few key points about the place. The kitchen and baths were extremely well appointed and clean. Communication throughout our 3-night stay was gracious, friendly and quick. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained…loved watching the mare and her new foal! We highly recommend Josie and her accommodations!

Fantastic! Josie and Brian are the best hosts ever! There was a lovely gift basket in the kitchen when we arrived and Josie was there to greet us. She always has a smile.We loved the house (very clean) and organized. The location is perfect. Very close to Cookstown for shopping and in the center of Northern Ireland, so going in any direction was not a long drive. The kitchen and the baths were fully supplied, and all of the rooms were nicely furnished. If we return to N.I., this is where we will stay!

From the moment I drove up the driveway and was greeted by the horses in the front paddock, I felt an instant sense of peace, like I’d come home. Each morning, waking to see them grazing just outside my bedroom window was such a gift.The house itself is spotless, comfortable, and has everything you could possibly need. You can tell how much love and care has gone into creating such a welcoming space.The hosts were wonderful, kind, genuine, and so easy to talk with. Their hospitality made my stay even more special.It’s one of those places that stays with you long after you’ve left. I’ll definitely be back.

Fahy's visit to Cookstown

Great home, perfect location, everything we needed and above all the best host imaginable! Josie went out of her way to welcome us and prepare for us. We had arrived just days after storm Eowyn when much of the country was without power. She secured back up lodging for us just in case the power didn't return. We will definitely stay again if back in the area and highly recommend this lodging!

Wonderful place to stay . . . And centrally located too!

I was in Northern Ireland for a combination of business and pleasure that would take me to Belfast. Donegal, Banbridge, Portrush, and more. This place was perfectly located to serve as a central location. The house was clean, comfortable, warm, and inviting. The owner was absolutely delightful and responsive to my communications. Best of all, the owner really prepares for guests in a manner that demonstrates how welcome you are to stay there.

Warm Welcome, Peaceful Setting

Our first accommodation on our first trip to Ireland was like a story book. We had heard about Irish hospitality, and Josie meeting us at check in, having some food treats, and helping us figure out some tech issues made a great start of our trip. The accommodations were comfortable, well-appointed, and everything we needed was close at hand. It was a very peaceful setting next to a pasture where Mama mare gave birth to a foal the morning of our departure. It was a convenient drive for our three main destinations in the area - back to Dublin, to Belfast, and to Rathlin island to see puffins, then on to the rope bridge and Giant's Causeway. We would highly recommend a stay at this wonderful accommodation.

Wonderful Respite!

We were on an extended family trip to visit ancestral places in Northern Ireland. Initially, I wasn’t sure how the ‘self-catering’ would be. This lovely home has an excellently appointed kitchen. Being located in this lovely country neighborhood just outside Cookstown ended up being the perfect central location for everything we needed! We did a day trip drive up to the Antrim coast for Dunluce Castle and Giants Causeway. Josie is a superb host! Payment instructions were clear and communication in advance was excellent. She welcomed us then met us as we were leaving, to ensure we had a quality stay. We made a new friend in Cookstown! If you can navigate country driving, this is an amazing and peaceful location.

Excellent property in a great central location

Firstly, when we arrived, the property was immaculately clean and tidy. Josie met us at the property with the keys and took us in for a tour, she was so kind and helpful. The cottage is very warm and cosy and the beds very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped with a large dining table. Great powerful shower in the main bathroom. The location is up a quiet country road which is so peaceful. There were a few horses in the neighbouring fields and the kids loved feeding them carrots! The cottage is very central in Northern Ireland and most places can be reached in about an hour or so. Definitely recommend this property.
