I always want come back here as my father was a lighthouse keeper and was stationed here 1971-75. I wanted to bring my family here to show them where I had spent some time. I was extremely lucky to get the very same house that we lived in. I had a fantastic weekend staying here. It was everything I expected and more. The staff couldn’t be more helpful. And the house felt like a home. I will definitely be back.
We loved the cottage, it was very clean, comfortable and warm as we had some chilly evenings. The decor was soothing ,blues and greens, lots of books to dip into about lighthouses which were very interesting. We were very pleased with our first Irish Landmark property and hooe to come again sometime.
What a beautiful rustic property. The interior of this lovely 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom Lighthouse Keepers house has been maintained to the original state, save for I'm sure a couple of luxuries such as a dishwasher, washing machine and a main floor shower room / bathroom. Everything you require for your stay by way of utensils, pots, pans, dishes, glassware, cups and such, are all provided. All you need to add is the food you wish to cook. The views from the lighthouse area are incredible. The walk along the ocean from Whitehead up to the Blackhead Lighthouse is a must. We had a wonderful ti...more
A four night stay for a family reunion was very successful. The access road is amazing and some might find it difficult, but it's certainly worth it. Spectacular views of Scotland, the Isle of Mann and the local coastline. Great access to the cliff walk which is great. Also recommend the Gobbins path, Jess's Plaice in Whitehead and Millars Bar in Ballycarry. Good walk into Whitehead, although there's not much in the village to detain you. One of the party found the stresses of the cliff path and walk to Whitehead a bit much - there are lots of steps and steep gradients, but generally the...more
We will never forget this unique stay, and hope to return. Everything was absolutely perfect. Linda was a charming and welcoming host.

We had a wonderful stay at Drum Gatelodge. The house is beautiful, full of character, with lovely décor and a charming collection of old books that made it feel really special. It was well equipped with everything we needed for our stay, although shampoo wasn't provided. The location is peaceful, scenic, and only a short drive from the nearest town, which offers a few lovely shops, bars, and restaurants. The service was excellent throughout our stay, and the owner was very accommodating and helpful, making us feel welcome from the start. The only thing that wasn't clear from the listing w...more
This place does wonders for your legs! Each room is up or down the spiral stairs, and even the en-suite bathroom has its own staircase. Aside from the building itself, the location is perfect. Glenarm is lovely, with friendly pubs, woodland and beach walks, and you really must eat at Moran's restaurant. Really, I loved everything about it. Heavy wooden doors, stone stairs and floors, comfy bed. Perfect for a short break that feels a bit more adventurous.
We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. Impeccably clean and really cosy. The surrounding walks were a joy. Thank you for maintaining these wonderful buildings.
Loved the quiet rural location, cosy sitting room and the large well equipped kitchen. The lodge has all the modern features needed for a comfortable stay while keeping the period details of the lodge. Great communication and support from our host.
