Another great stay, for something different this time we decided to go on a day trip to Belfast, to visit the Titanic Museum and do the open top bus tour. Then get an evening meal in Belfast. It is a long day up at 5:00am to get the 7:30 ferry. Arrived in Belfast for 09:45, back on the 19:30 ferry so back home for midnight. It is a long day but a great way to get a quick feel of visiting Northern Ireland at a reasonable cost. You could stay a night in Belfast if it seems too much travel for 1 day.Everything else was fantastic again at the Nook, even the weather was great for early March.

Excellent well thought out and comfortable accommodation. Brilliant location with lots to do nearby and a beautiful little beach for evening strolls. We both hope to return soon.

Great little modern cottage. Stunning views, beautiful watching dawn arriving over the sea and island (in January). Well appointed kitchen etc. Warm and spotless. Great coastline and nature. Loved it.
