Snaptrip says

Granny's cottage in Bushmills is highly praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and prime location for exploring the Giant's Causeway and Northern Ireland's coast. Guests appreciate the well-equipped facilities, the warm welcome, and the thoughtful touches upon arrival. While some minor issues are mentioned, the overall sentiment is extremely positive, with many looking forward to returning.

Guests that stayed at this property said

The cottage receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews noting it as spotless and well-presented. This suggests a very high standard of cleanliness maintained by the owners.

The location is frequently described as great, ideal for exploring local attractions, and within easy reach of amenities. Its proximity to the Giant's Causeway and beaches is a highlight, although one review mentions the road is not suitable for walking dogs or small children.

Comfort is a strong point for this property, with guests finding the beds super comfy and the home warm and inviting. The presence of a working farm nearby was a slight issue for one guest, but overall, comfort levels are rated highly.

Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-stocked kitchen and useful amenities like a washing machine. However, some reviews mention issues with damp and a desire for additional items like a radio or stair gate, indicating room for improvement in maintenance.

While guests mention a warm welcome and essentials provided on arrival, there are not enough details to assess the consistency of thoughtful gestures such as gifts. Therefore, it cannot be guaranteed that such extras will be provided for every stay.

About this property

Nestled in wonderful countryside on the outskirts of Bushmills, County Antrim is this family-friendly, traditional cottage, Granny's. A detached cottage in the middle of a working family farm, this is the perfect spot for a rural escape with your loved ones. Off-road parking is available for guests to unpack their belongings with ease and get settled in straight away; entering via the back door, you'll find a homely kitchen/diner with quaint décor and a feature fireplace. Set the dining table for six and utilise the excellent amenities in the smart, minimal kitchen with an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer and ample storage space. Head to the bright, snug sitting room with a mixture of traditional and stylish furnishings and make yourself at home on the cushioned corner sofa, paired with a film on the TV or an afternoon of family games, or snuggle into the plush armchair with a good book. Granny's has family-friendly in mind with a spacious ground-floor shower room after muddy walks; hang a towel on the heated towel rail and hop in the walk-in shower to freshen up before dinner. There is a handy washing machine and tumble dryer provided in the external utility room. Climb the stairs to a spacious landing with views right across the beautiful countryside with the Giant's Causeway resting in the background; three lovely bedrooms await sleepy heads, with a king-size, double and twin, all with storage space and a travel cot available for the littlest guest. A family bathroom offers a bath with handheld shower, as well as a walk-in shower, for quick and easy mornings to make the most of your holiday time. A family-friendly courtyard is available to guests, with plenty space for outdoor games and taking in the peaceful surroundings. Stock up on the essentials or dine in one of the restaurants and pubs in Bushmills, which is a short journey away. Granny's is a great location for exploring the delights of Northern Ireland with Bushmills on the designated Causeway Coastal Route for stunning scenic views; head north to follow the footsteps of giants along the iconic Giant's Causeway, with the hamlet of Dunseverick a short journey east, home to a ruined 15th-century castle, Dunseverick falls and a picturesque harbour. Pack the car and spend the day in Portrush, home to a family-friendly beach surrounded by limestone cliffs with plenty of watersports on offer, cafés dotting the coastline, as well as tours of Dunluce Castle, the ruins of a medieval Irish castle. Another fun-filled day trip awaits in Ballycastle surrounded by glens, forests and ancient rocks; fuel up in the many shops and eateries along the bay, explore Bonamargy Friary, before heading to Ballycastle Strand for a day of sea, sun and sandcastles. Granny's is a wonderful home-away-from-home to discover the wonders along the Northern Irish coast.

Located on the approved Causeway Coastal Route, Bushmills is a settlement on the north shore of Northern Ireland's County Antrim. It lies 60 miles north of Belfast and 11 miles south of Ballycastle. The Old Bushmills Distillery, which produces a variety of whiskies, is the village's most famous feature.

    Great location, comfy beds, clean and tidy. The only thing missing was a cosy fire for the colder darker nights but that’s not an issue for the warmer months. A*

  • Ben

    Close to popular attractions in beautiful surroundings.

  • Ciaran

    House is well equipped with everything you would need. House is off a busy road but far enough off the road that you can’t hear the traffic but the road isn’t suitable for walking dogs or snail children.
