Our stay at the cottage was great. The grounds and space are beautiful and really gave a genuine Irish countryside feel. The location was convenient to drive to several other towns we wanted to visit (only a few hours from Giants Causeway). McBrides Pub in Castlebellingham was a great time—we visited with many locals who took us in like family several of the evenings.
When we arrived at the cottage we were told that we would be staying in Cottage #1 despite booking #2, as she did not realize there were 5 of us coming. While I did make a mistake in only choosing 1 guest, it was definitely disappointing to find our accommodations had been rearranged. The latter cottage only had 3 beds vs. 4 and one was only a full vs. a queen. Caroline went into action and found us some beds (another twin and a mattress on the floor) which we made work. Breakfast is not included as is stated on the listing. She did, however, make us a nice breakfast one day to make up for the mishaps. Flushing was hit and miss, but other than that the cottage had no issues.
Caroline is super sweet and puts a lot of work into the cottages. I would definitely stay again!
