Our stay in Downpatrick

Our stay was more than we expected. The view is beautiful and all of us took walks around the property to see the flora and the fauna. The kids had a great time wandering around as well. Very comfortable and very clean.

Wonderful home away from home stay.

The setting of this quaint cottage is what mostly sets it apart, situated on a farm with cows and horses, and plenty of walking paths to enjoy it. The hosts could not have been more helpful, welcoming and wonderful, almost making us feel like extended family. They even invited us to their Christmas party. All in all, it was a glorious extended stay that I would highly recommend to anyone looking to visit the area.

The place to stay!

On our arrival we were welcomed by Kelsie and David, our lovely hosts. The cottage is well appointed and having a double bedroom on the ground floor was one of the reasons we chose the cottage. We were not disappointed and immediately felt relaxed and comfortable. The views are fantastic and the walks around the area are excellent and well marked. We stayed fir nearky 2 weeks and would have loved to stay longer..Can definitely recommend a stay expecially fir an older couple

Perfekt Place ❤

I came as a stranger and was welcomed with so much warmth that it was almost like meeting family. The holiday home is very comfortable and has everything you could want. It was my first trip to Ireland and the World Trial, it was an incredible experience. The cottage offers enough space for traveling with dogs. When the weather is nice you can sit comfortably outside and when it rains you can let your gaze wander inside. Many sights are easy to explore, shop or simply unwind. Everything is possible I will definitely come back. Thank you very much, greetings Kirsten and the border collie.🐾🐾

Absolutely Charming

Idyllic stay in the country! Traveled with a one year old and three year old. Host provided a high chair and pack n' play for my one year old, which made everything that much easier. The house is perfect! Lots of space for a traveling family and ideal space outside for the littles to run. There was milk and eggs for us in the fridge, as well as cookies, coffee, tea, and sugar. We enjoyed walking around the grounds, seeing the cows, horses, and beautiful views. Host had excellent recommendation to get quick fix meals and all the information you need is available in the multiple binders, brochures, and maps provided. Looking forward to the next time we can visit!
