I booked a couple of nights away as a surprise present for my sister's 60th birthday, and the location and property made it a perfect break. Positioned right at the tip of the peninsula, with no TV, internet and little mobile reception made it a fantastic place to get away, switch off, and relax. We were met at the property by Suzan who showed us around and filled us in on some of the history of the lighthouse - very friendly and informative. The cottage is well furnished, warm, and quiet (VERY thick walls!) and the kitchen has pretty much all you could need.
Staying at JP Ketch and watching the lighthouse glow at night is a total reset. The experience of staying in a beautifully well equipped and maintained lighthouse keeper cottage was fantastic for my friends and I. We played board games and chilled out with our books and enjoyed all the comforts of this spotless homely and historic place. The area is very beautiful and there were plenty of interesting coastal places to visit and enjoy good food. The hosts were also really friendly and welcoming and very knowledgeable. I’d love to go back there again.
We loved our stay at Blackhead. The views are stunning. Bedrooms very comfortable. Very clean. Kitchen facilities perfect for preparing and serving a family meal. Pamela very helpful. Recycling of waste is great to see.
Magical stay in this wonderful place. Thanks again to Pamela and the team for looking after us. A very special place and enjoyed by all of the family.
This was our third time staying in Blackhead Lightkeeper's House 2 and again, it was just the most perfect place for relaxing and catching up with friends. We were really lucky with the late autumn weather so mornings started with breakfast outside, watching the mesmerising views and the evenings ended chatting by the open fire in the living room. Pamela is a wonderful House Manager and the house itself is like stepping back in time (but with every possible modern convenience!).
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Kiln Wing. It is such a special place. Falling asleep to the sound of the river outside our window was wonderful.
Drum Gatelodge is a beautiful place to stay. Surrounded by nature and two very friendly donkeys, it is warm and welcoming. Everything is clean, well kept and characterful. We loved sitting by the fire in the evening and then retiring to our very comfortable bed upstairs. It has that lovely quirky feeling of Irish Landmark Trust properties, a fabulous place to relax and get away from it all.
From the moment the huge green gates opened into the castle grounds we felt this was going to be special. The Barbican lived up to all our hopes. Climbing the spiral staircase we opened the heavy door into our warm and wonderful bedroom which looked, through beautiful windows, into the autumn trees of the castle gardens. Through another door and down some stairs was the bathroom. Going back to the main spiral staircase we ascended to the gorgeous living room and kitchen again lovely views of the gardens on one side and into town on the other. Our final ascent took us to the top of the tower, ...more
Absolutely lovely, Louise McCarney most pleasant and helpful. Place very clean. Slight damp in the ceiling of the living room
Our 2nd time staying and it was even better than before just the most gorgeous quaint place, quiet and tranquil a truly relaxing couple of days. Thanks to Alison the property manager who was very professional, friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back again.
