Stunning new home in exquisite location

This is a stunning new 5 bedroom house set in private mature grounds with exquisite views of the sea, golf course, Rathlin Island and Glenshesk. There is a main bathroom, 2 ensuite bathrooms and downstairs toilet. There is a fabulous sunroom with vaulted church style mahogany ceiling. Family and dining areas are open plan providing a wonderful space with double doors leading to the kitchen.

The exterior is lit by floodlights and recessed ground lighting. There is a large fully landscaped garden area. The property benefits from double glazing, a fully monitored ADT security alarm system, a beam vacuum system, a luxury hand made kitchen with granite work surfaces and American style fridge-freezer. Outside there is a double detached garage with room for boat storage.



Attractions!: Lots to do (if you choose) or simply enjoy the stunning scenery and nature's gifts!

Lots of walking (beach, forest, hill), cycling, mountain biking, horse-riding, jet-skiing, kiting, water-skiing, swimming and of course - golf! Several nearby courses (Ballycastle, Royal Portrush, Portstewart, Bushfoot, Cushendall to name but a few). A dozen tennis courts (grass and cement), fishing, bowls, and badminton all available locally. Arts and crafts a speciality.

Carrck-a-Rede rope bridge and world heritage site of Giant's Causeway 20 minutes away. Bushmills Distillery 15 minutes. Several top quality restaurants are near to hand and traditional Irish music sessions can be enjoyed over a pint of Guinness in one of the nearby pubs. All your shopping needs are at your doorstep.


Island Hopping!: Enjoy a high speed boat trip across to nearby Rathlin Island and visit the seals in their natural habitat or the seabirds at the RSPB Bird Sanctuary. Also available - whale watching! Go a little further to the Scottish Isles and enjoy tours of the distilleries of Islay. Visit for the day or spend the night!

Beaches: The local area boasts several stunning award winning beaches with miles of golden sands. There is of course Ballycastle beach, Cushendall, Cushendun, Portrush, Portstewart, Portballintrae and Whitepark Bay. These are child friendly and safe for swimming from.

Niece's Wedding
I traveled with my wife and 4 adult children with spouses/significant others for my niece's wedding in Ballycastle/Portrush. This house was perfect for our stay. With 5 BR and three showers there was plenty of space and ease with a large group getting ready for the wedding. This is a beautiful and spacious home. The property was convenient (walkable) to the center of town (Ballycastle) for shopping, dining, walks to the beach, etc. I would highly recommend this home for large groups visiting Ballycastle.

Great location to explore Northern Ireland
This house had plenty of room for the 6 travelers and was very well equipped. It has a nice kitchen, 3 bathrooms and the 4 bedroom setup worked perfectly for 2 couples and 2 others traveling single. There's a washer available but no dryer, washer takes a while too so don't plan on a quick load. The town is great, the food recommendations in the literature at the house were spot on. The area has a lot to see and do. We'd definitely stay there again, highly recommended location. About the only item that's a bit inconvenient is having to supply bath towels yourself, but that was well communicated up front. Other things that could be improved would be to get rid of the baby gate at the top of the stairs for most guests and to have some non-slip mats in the bathrooms. An elderly person in our party slipped getting out of the shower and broke 2 bones, but the setup was fine for the rest of us. The floors are tile so can be slick when wet. The front door usage probably needs some further explanation for us foreigners, never seen a door lock by pulling up on the handle, but just something to tell folks vs them figuring it out eventually.

Beautiful home!
This was a perfect house for our group of 8 adults. The living room and dining table were large enough for all of us to relax and to eat together. The rooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable. The house is in a quiet neighborhood on a hill with a lovely view. We had an exceptional dinner in Ballycastle at the Cellar Restaurant. We spent the next day sightseeing at the Giant's Causeway, the Bushmills Distillery (check tour times before you go), the Dunluce Castle, and the Mussenden Temple (and other sites on that property). It was a perfect day! **The only improvement I would make to this rental would be to provide towels for everyone.

A beautiful property in a wonderful location with superb views.
A large and well presented property with plenty of space even when fully occupied. Within easy reach of Ballycastle, Carrick-a-Rede, the Giant’s Causeway, Fair Head and other gems of the. Causeway Coast. Highly recommended.

Magnificent house with plenty of room for us all.
The house was in a very quiet neighbourhood about 8 minutes walk down to the sea front at Ballycastle. It was a good base to explore the surrounding area- we visited all the local points of interest except the rope bridge, which didn't seem worth the £8 per head for 8 of us a 2 minute experience. In contrast, my visit to Rathlin Island for £12 return on the ferry was a fabulous day out walking amongst some beautiful scenery, though make sure you book both outward and return journeys in advance as the afternoon returns soon fill to capacity. The Giants Causwaywas stunning, but very popular on the day we attended. Some of the path was blocked off which was a little disappointing, but never the less, a great visit. Tried walking out to Fair Head from Ballycastle along the shore road and path. Sadly, the path petered out before it got below Fair Head. I had to fight my way on a very overgrown path. Visited Fair Head one evening by road. Parked in the farm car park and paid £3 into the honestybox there. A walk of about 1.5km to the cliff across some white, recently lime covered fields where there were some fantastic views. - Returned to the car with white covered trainers. The farmers wife gave us some helpful information on where to go to get the best views. Not interested in the Game of Thrones, but Ballintoy was very charming with a lovely walk around to Whitesands bay at low tide. A wonderful week.

Beautiful home, comfortably appointed!
This was our first trip to Northern Ireland. The location of this home gives you beautiful views of the hills and the Atlantic. It was a wee bit farther from the best part of the town of Ballycastle, but this is minor and would not prevent us from staying there, again! Loved exploring the area, a close drive to the Giant’s Causeway & Fair Head. Both are a pretty good walk, so be prepared! We loved O’Connor’s pub, the food was good and the wait staff friendly. The same can be said for the Diamond Bar Restaurant. Don’t miss visiting Glenariff Forest Park and the beautiful Glens with their waterfalls! It is a beautiful area and the house was perfect & easily accommodated our party of 6 adults & 2 children. We would love to be able to return!

A wonderful vacation property!
Ronan, Thank you so much for the rental of your lovely home. The house is stunning, on a wonderful, quiet street. It was big enough for 6 adults to spread out and relax. The views are breathtaking and we spent more than one late afternoon basking in the sunroom with a glass of wine, enjoying the view of the rolling hills and listening to the baa’s of the lambs! Having to bring along on an international trip, or buy bath towels there, isn’t super convenient- but we left ours behind, so hopefully it helps stock the linen cupboard! Otherwise the home is well prepped in every way. We had a great visit to the always lovely Ballycastle area and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this property to anyone.

We used a local taxi company who were absolutely amazing and looked after us throughout our stay. The only thing that would have been handy is some egg cups.

The house is definitely large with some nice views. When we arrived the house was very, very cold and the owners had advance notice of our arrival . It took several hours for the house to heat up. The house also lacked some important essentials such as a roll of toilet paper in each bathroom and towels and face towels for guests. When I asked about the lack of towels I was told someone would drop by with towels . This person never arrived, and then I was advised they do not supply towels. We travelled here from Canada and found the other vrbo homes much warmer and welcoming . This aside the location of the home was good .

Very happy with the house and the area.
Great views in a great area. Walking distance to the beach area & shopping, but uphill on the return. The weather whilst we were there for 2 wks was pretty inconsistent, with some rain occurring most days, - which created a problem with getting our washing dry. For a house that holds that many people, the washing machine is too small & the dryer on it did not work. I would recommend the owner put in a separate dryer machine. The dishwasher did break down on the 2nd day, & the owner did his best to have this fixed & then replaced it with a new one. We did string a line outside to assist with clothes drying, but this was still difficult due to the weather. The conservatory became our drying room. These minor problems did not mar our enjoyment with our vacation venue. The roominess of the house accommodated the 10 of us very well. Bathrooms were great with really good water pressure for the showers. Location is close to many must see sights & we had a great time. My daughter in law even had her first swim in the sea, - reported as very invigorating.
