Absolutely love this holiday home. The location is beyond idyllic...ensuites to all the bedrooms makes life so much more comfortable. Full of all the home from home neccessities with excellent top of the range appliances. What I find superb is the fact that you can relax in a quality home without feeling you can't be too precious . Each year we seem to have a new grandchild and the house has plenty of baby things without having to transport truck loads. Two local shops and two excellent cafes on your doorstep make life easy and if you want to eat out there is an amazing Indian over the road. Great communication from the owners...always a pleasure.

We had such a lovely stay at this beautiful, spacious cottage. The location is absolutely stunning and made the perfect base for a relaxing getaway. There are so many wonderful walks right on the doorstep, with the waterfalls and nature reserve being particular highlights. Kilbride Bay is also a gorgeous beach and only around a 20-minute drive away, which made for a lovely day out.The cottage itself was a real pleasure to come back to after exploring, and we couldn’t have asked for a more peaceful and beautiful setting. We even treated ourselves to a meal from the local Indian restaurant on our last evening, which was the perfect way to finish our stay.We genuinely didn’t want to leave and would love to come back again. A truly special place that we’d happily recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful break surrounded by beautiful scenery.

Waterside is a massive, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable rental with spacious bedrooms and bathrooms to suit even the pickiest family groups, wonderful natural lighting, tons of stuff to do, and plenty of space for everyone to spread out. Stepping outside to enjoy sunrises and sunsets over the water on the deck was magical, with glorious views of sailboats and rainbows keeping the view ever changing and always beautiful. The location couldn't be better either, with two lovely little cafés right on your doorstep, a little market to suit most needs, a pub across the road, and beautiful coastal walks starting the second you step outside. All parents and kids loved the accommodations, which were generously stocked with everything we could need (we never once struggled to find a kitchen tool or amenity that was not already seen to). We were happy in the cottage whether it rained or shined. The lovely hosts were so thoughtful and kind, and very responsive. The whole cottage is pure, peaceful relaxation and we hope to return!!
