Super stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the property. The flat was very clean, very comfortable and very well equipped. Our host was very helpful and our lovely welcome pack was a lovely added touch. The views are stunning from the lounge and Master Bedroom and the beds very comfortable making for a peaceful nights sleep. Murlough Nature Reserve is within walking distance with lots of walks and wildlife on the doorstep, yet Belfast is only 45 minutes away. We enjoyed our stay so much we have already booked again for next year.

We spent 5 nights here and were very impressed with everything. It looked just as good as the photos on the website. It was spacious and clean and very well equipped. The location was excellent for exploring County Down. I would stay here again.

Janet is an excellent host, nothing was a bother to her. From the minute we entered the apartment the views from every large window were spectacular, the location of the apartment was excellent. Restaurants were excellent. Most relaxing time was spent in Dundrum. Would love to return soon.

Birthday Celebration
The views from the property were amazing and ever changing! We loved your well appointed home. We enjoyed dinners out at Bucks Head Inn and Mourne Seafood. Brennan’s took care of our grocery/beverage needs. The Dundrum Castle is a must see and boasts the most beautiful views and great photo opportunities. We walked the Murlough Nature Reserve, a 6 mile walk that takes you to the beach on the Irish Sea, absolutely beautiful. Thank you for the lovely wine and treats! We really enjoyed our time with family at your beautiful home! Maureen & George- Bergen County, NJ, USA

Amazing waterfront property
When you walk in, the open floorplan and windows all around feels like you are right on the beach! Very well stocked kitchen with modern appliances. Beds are comfe and good closet storage. My favorite part though was seeing the tide come and go and how it changed the landscape. Great location to shopping, pubs, restaurants, and beach combing. Janet was a wonderful host with quick response to any question.

This is an amazing property in a fantastic location. It’s difficult to put into words just how and why this property warrants this description - one needs to be here to experience the uniqueness both of Dundrum Bay with its ever changing landscape as the tides ebb and flow and of the situation of the property itself overlooking the bay with the backdrop of the beautiful Mourne Mountains range in the distance.

Feeling like a local
We were blown away by the vista of this property - the twice-daily changing of the tide that shifted the back-drop from water to sand. All helped by the huge corner windows. Very spacious. Expertly decorated. And a 2 min walk to Mourne’s Seafood, the best scones of my life at the Blue Bay cafe (open weekends only), and the bustling Dundrum Inn pub. Loved walking along the coast for as far as the eye could see. A wonderful addition to our Ireland experience.

Absolutely Fantastic
My friend and I had a wonderful stay at Janet’s apartment. The photos don’t do the view justice and the apartment is even nicer than the photos as well. We had a little problem with the boiler but Janet was wonderful and sorted things out to our satisfaction for the inconvenience. And I’m sure it was just one of those things. There was a lovely welcome awaiting us when we arrived with a bottle of wine and some nibbles. The apartment has everything you could possible want and it really is like a home from home. I can recommend the Bucks Head were we eat the night we arrived and it was excellent. We also eat at The Mourne Seafood Bar and I had the Dover sole which was out of this world. I couldn’t get a booking at the Mourne Seafood but Janet managed to pull some strings and kindly got us in. Both restaurants are only a very short walk from the apartment. There is so much to see and do from the Murlough nature reserve (Murlough beach runs right around from Dundrum bay to Newcastle) to Castlewellan and a must is Silent Valley which is absolutely stunning. This was my first holiday in Northern Ireland and I would go back to Janet’s fabulous apartment in a heartbeat. Sitting on the balcony looking at the view you couldn’t beat it. Can't recommend this apartment enough it is without doubt the best I've ever stayed in. So thanks Janet for making everything so special.

Although we had pretty poor weather we really enjoyed our stay at No. 39 The Quays. The apartment is beautifully furnished and much thought has gone into the planning. Our favourite time was breakfast and looking over Dundrum bay and towards the Mournes.

This is our third time to stay in this property and it is fast becoming our go-to place. The apartment is beautifully furnished and has everything needed for a break/holiday. The ever changing view is stunning and one of the best in NI. Great area for walking, good food and quirky independent shops (in nearby Newcastle). A welcome gift of wine and cupcakes on arrival was an added treat - thank you Janet!

We had a great and much needed break at this lovely apartment. Communication with the owner from our initial booking was excellent with plenty of information about finding and gaining access to reassuring us of cleaning etc. The apartment was spotless and had everything we needed. The views were amazing and changed as the tide came in and out so we did a lot of birdwatching from the balcony! Parking was good and the area and apartment block were quiet so this suited us well We would definitely return to Janet’s apartment.

Fabulous experience from start to finish. The apartment is stunning in location and quality of the apartment. Janet was fantastic in keeping in touch. She showed great care and compassion when I had a family bereavement which meant we had to leave early I will always be so grateful for this. The apartment is in a beautiful little village, Dundrum which provides a great base to see this part of NI. We will be returning again. Thank you again Janet.

Thanks for your kind comments David. I’m so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We do state on our listing and in our information pack that the gas fire is no longer operational. Hopefully we’ll find something equally ambient to replace it, although the apartment is very warm and cozy anyway with the heating on.
