  Fantastic, fantastic, fantastic Where do I start!

  ! What an amazing place to stay. The accommodation was spectacular from the second we opened the door. It has a large open plan kitchen, sitting room and dining area all looking out to the beautiful Castlerock beach at an elevated position. The four bedrooms were extremely cosy and beautifully decorated and we all slept so well. Eileen welcomed us at the accommodation with her true Irish hospitality and made us feel at home immediately. Dolores (the owner) contacted us before our holiday to introduce herself and to let us know what Castlerock and the surrounding area had to offer. Both Dolores and Eileen are two lovely people. We have been visiting this stunning part of Northern Ireland for many years and I can truly say that my family alway look forward to this holiday the most to recharge our batteries. I almost didn’t want to write this review as I wanted to keep this beautiful place our secret so that we could visit on a regular basis but I have to say that this accommodation and Castlerock is a ‘must visit’ holiday. Thank you so much Dolores and Eileen, will DEFINITELY see you again!

  We had a wonderful stay at this property.

  It has a great location with lovely views of the town and Carlingford Lough. It is conveniently situated with easy access to the town. The rooms are spacious and well laid out with comfortable furniture. Everything we needed was there. If we had a wish list it would be to add a smart tv so that we could watch netflix etc. We missed having an ensuite but the bathroom was handy to all bedrooms so it wasn't a serious issue. The second toilet was useful. We would have preferred dog proof fencing at the front of the property or perhaps a fully fenced backyard. There was no barrier between the house at both ends to prevent our small dog from leaving the property had it tried to. The rear fence slats were a little wide or at least appeared to be consequently we had to stand guard whilst our Zoe went outside. All in all a great property and a credit to its owners. Thanks for allowing us to spend a week there, we thoroughly enjoyed it. Oh and thanks so much for the goodies you left for us, tea cakes and crisps etc.

  The admiral is a lovely house and the location is good to see the surrounding area.

  The cleanliness could be better and the kitchen utensils, pots and pans are a mish mash of oddments thrown together. No sharp knifes, tin opener doesn't work all glasses and dishes are oddments. Unfortunately the kitchen sink was blocked on arrival, we reported it to the owner and he responded quickly and fixed it within twenty four hours. The shower heads need descaling they only spray from half the head. No clean linen for beds were provided even though we were there for two weeks. Only two tea towels provided so struggled to dry pots, the dishwasher was out of use and the dustbins were full on arrival. Has I said earlier the Admiral is a lovely house but unfortunately it appeared poorly equipped and maintained. On a brighter note the people of coleraine were lovely and made us very welcome has did everyone we met on our holiday to Northern Ireland.

  From the moment Eileen met us at the door with the keys we felt right at home here.

  Lovely house, cozily furnished and so comfortable, with fantastic views of the beach from the picture window in the living room. Mussenden Temple and Downhill Demesne is practically across the street, and we loved having such easy access to its beautiful grounds and well maintained walking paths. The house is just a few miles from some of the most spectacular stops on the Causeway Coastal Route (Dunluce Castle, Giant’s Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge), and we had a great time exploring the area and its many wonders. There are a couple of good dining options in Castlerock (the Meatbox makes amazing burgers), and plenty of options nearby for grocery shopping if you prefer to prepare your own meals. A wonderful experience overall, would be happy to stop here again. Highly recommended.

  A lovely home from home with everything you could possibly need.

  Beautifully furnished and comfortable. And pet friendly too. Warm and cosy with super views. The log burner was great, although the house heats up really quickly and easily anyway. Excellent location near the beach, village, train station and lovely walk to Mussenden Temple. Suitable for a couple or small family. (The back door entrance is directly in to the single bedroom so couldn’t really be used if that bedroom is occupied.) Not a big problem. It was perfect for us as a couple with dog. Eileen, the housekeeper, was great. Very welcoming and couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. Also a wealth of local knowledge. We would definitely recommend this property and wouldn’t hesitate to return for another stay.
