Cozy home and great location
This home was a great base for hiking in the Mourne Mountains! The owner even provided us with walking/hiking poles :)

Great stay!!!!
This place was a little sluce of Heaven for the beginning of our stay in Northern Ireland. The hosts were amazing and even helped us by letting us borrow a phone charger because we didnt have the right adapter from US. Please dont hesitate to stay here. It has everything you need and is close to New Castle. Also, when you go make sure to get to the Galley restaurant nearby!

Cozy cottage in the country!
Loved the cottage as it was clean and welcoming. The host also left a wonderful selection of cookies and coffee, which was greatly appreciated. The location is wonderful for visiting many other locations in the area.

Pet safe get away!!
This cosy cottage is well equipped with everything you would need for that get away break. The property's grounds are well enclosed and pet safe. Silent Valley is just up the road. If you feel the need to get in touch with the host, messaging Aileen is straightforward with a response in tip top time. Will definately be back. Just home a day and missing the place already!!! Thankyou Aileen.

The cottage was exactly as advertised. We really enjoyed our stay. It was really nice to have safe parking. The location was what we were looking for. Aileen (the host) was very responsive to our requests. We would certainly stay there again.....

Charming and Peaceful
We loved this charming Irish cottage. It was a rural setting not to far from essentials and some restaurants. It was beautifully decorated, breathtaking scenery from drives and hikes in the Mourne Mountains to the sea and very comfortable bedding. We couldn’t have asked for more ! Thank you 😊

My stay was fantastic from start 2 finish. It was so relaxing and the property was more than perfect
The experience in renting the property was straight forward and hassle free. The host was on hand if i had any queries. I had 2 contact the host once when i was at the property and they where at the property in less than 10mins. The whole experience from start 2 finish was great.

Well equipped & located cottage
Lovely cottage close to the Mournes. Well equipped kitchen with a great shower and solid Wifi and a SmartTV. Great host communications with a handy guide to walking in the Mournes. Literally the only thing I would add is a proper chef's knife for the kitchen - but that's a quibble. (The cottage isn't really walking distance to the village, but it's just a five minute drive into Kilkeel. Please note if you're coming with a dog - some parts of the Mournes do not allow dogs - even on leash).

Thank you for your kind review Michael really appreciated- I will take your advice and leave in a better knife (and hope noone cuts themselves 😩) I hadn’t realised that there are parts of the mournes dogs aren’t allowed - that’s news to me. Thanks again for choosing to stay at the cottage.

A cosy, fabulous cottage
A really lovely cottage, clean, smart and welcoming, with the utmost privacy. We took 2 dogs and there was plenty of space for us all. Would highly recommend for a trip to the Mournes.

Walking in the Mournes
An excellent, well equipped cottage, perfectly placed for walking in the Mourne mountains. The property benefits from an open plan living space & 2 good sized & very comfortable bedrooms. Highly recommended!
