"The property was very nice but the owner did not tell us he had an aggressive dog on the property before we arrived, knowing we were bringing our dog with us. He had his aggressive dog in a field opposite the property off lead and with no muzzle. When the owner's dog saw ours, which was on lead, he ran over at full speed, we were unable to get the dog back in the house. The result was 2 very bad bites on our dog’s back requiring veterinary treatment. The owner seemed unconcerned. Our dog will...

"Clean, quiet, beautiful country residence located within an idyllic equestrian centre. Close to restaurants and tourist spots in Bangor and Donaghadee. Our dog really enjoyed the trip too. Trevor, the host, was a gentleman. Thoroughly recommended!"

"Easy check in with the host! Gail made everything simple. Cottage was very clean and neat. It was quiet in the country lane. The pub across the street has good food and the people are friendly."

"This cottage is a real gem of a find. We had a lovely relaxing week in November in this impeccably renovated and decorated 200 year old cottage which has original features blended with all the modern comforts you could need including underfloor heating and a cosy stove for evenings around the fire. The cottage itself is set in the rolling County Down hills with glimpses of the Mourne Mountains in the distance on winding walks around the quiet roads. We also enjoyed star gazing on the terrace...

"We enjoyed our stay! Discovered we had lots to learn about how things work in the UK, and Raymond was great to respond to every question. We were a 3-generation family group of 7.

Hospitality was great! Raymond & Brenda had a welcome sign with all our family names on it; took a picture of it....

"We stayed from Monday through to Sunday; 2 adults, 12 years old daughter and 2 dogs. We had a thoroughly lovely stay here with quiet surrounds, fresh eggs for breakfast and loads of space for the dogs to run around. We spent a little time initially ensuring the dogs couldn't get out the huge garden because of the sheep and horses that live around you (and who add to the feeling of "being away from it all" ) and they were then free to enjoy their holiday too! Rowallane gardens next door are...

"The property was spacious, well equipped and comfortable. We were made to feel very welcome and the communication was excellent"

"Heather is an extremely considerate host who has thought of every detail to make her guests comfortable. The home is charming, and the setting is beautiful, with access to a lovely garden and coastal walking trails. Would definitely return!"
