We stayed here during the summer it was just perfect. Wendy was a wonderful host with a lovely basket in the kitchen on arrival with all the basics including free range eggs from her own hens. What a nice touch. Very idyllic location, peaceful but very close to Holywood, Belfast and the nearby Helens Bay beach. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic self catering apartments. Absolutely spotless. Beautiful scenery. The owners are very friendly and obliging. Been many many times and I wouldnt be telling a lie if I said I considered them to be amongst my best friends. Will be visiting again very soon.

The prefect accommodation for a young family visiting relatives in the area. The accommodation itself was fully equipped with everything we needed, and the welcome basket made life a lot easier. Knowing we had two small children Wendy had kindly put out additional supplies for them, kiddy cups and bowls etc. The setting was delightful as well, looking out from the Holywood Hills across the loch with views to the sea and Scotland. The house sits in a large garden which our eldest loved rambling through. From a practical perspective it's 10 minutes from Holywood with all the shops you might need
