The cottage is a cosy gem. It is set in its own lovely gardens and is tranquility personified, it’s perfect for sunny morning coffees and we were even joined by a few friendly chickens one morning. It is finished and decorated beautifully and oozes good taste and design touch’s. All the appliances were new and the wood burning stove, complete with a full basket of dried logs added to the charm. The WiFi was excellent and the TV package was a real bonus. The place was spotless and bigger than it might seem from the photos. The kitchen had everything you needed, and more. The Bialetti coffee pot and the scales for baking were a bonus as was the lovely welcome pack.
We don’t know if we loved the cottage or the village of Ramelton more! Get here before he crowds do. It’s just a 5 minute drive to enjoy lovely pubs, great food in cafes, bars and food trucks, the historic walking tour, the market, the Georgian streetscape, well stocked supermarket and coffee, cheese and cakes at the Blue Goat.
We used the cottage as a base to explore local beaches and drive the Wild Atlantic Way - Malin Head to the north and Fanad Head to the south. The secenery, pints, dolphins, chowder and swims on your doorstep all made Ards cottage a great place for our holiday.
Communication with Niamh, who checked us in, was great - she’s fast and efficient.
