Irish Landmark is a non-profit organisation that finds interesting and unusual properties that are in need of conservation, and we give them new life. Since 1992, we've been turning historic buildings into truly special self-catering holiday accommodation. Our properties range from lighthouses and schoolhouses, to castles and gate lodges.
As an educational charity, our primary aim is to conserve and sustain iconic buildings. That's why Irish Landmark properties are living buildings, not museum settings. Irish Landmark always respects the history and architectural integrity of the structures we conserve, but we also ensure they have all the contemporary comforts you want in a holiday home.
We stayed at sloop so my husband could take photos. He was delighted with the opportunity and got some great shots. The cottage is comfy and well equipped although for us oldies the downstairs toilet was a challenge at night but we coped well. Would recommend a lighthouse stay to all. Thanks from fours aussies.
Amazing place to stay, has it’s own beauty no mater the weather (stormy or calm).
Ideal place to go and switch off, lovely walks, accommodation has all the amenities you want.
Host Suzan and Paula were great hosts ,lovely relaxed location would visit again.
Lighthouse at night is lovely.

We had a fabulous stay here celebrating a special birthday. Really beautiful place. So peaceful and what a beautiful setting. Pamela was really kind and attentive. Place was spotless and everything you needed was provided. If i was to go again, I don’t think I would go out for food, I would probably bring everything with me to cook there. The taxi company let us down on the Saturday and we ended up having to drive to the restaurant. There really is no need to go anywhere as you will want to every minute you have in this beautiful lighthouse.
I loved the narrow drive up to the house and then ending at the edge of a cliff. There was a special connection with the sea, the way it took over the windows. Being able to observe the lighthouse sending a beam at night was also special. On top of that I loved how the house has different levels and the rooms were very spacious. It was a very comfortable stay with the large dining table where we sat for hours and then the sitting room full of couches and a lovely fire. The beds were so comfy and the house was warm. Also good value for money. Would love to visit again.
The Old Corn Mill is located in the centre of Bushmills with a beautiful view of the river. It has been restored to retain all the charm of its original design while bringing modern comfort for visitors.
The town itself has excellent restaurants, traditional pubs and interesting shops.
This is a great base to discover the north coast from Castlerock to Ballycastle.
We had a wonderful stay at the Old Corn Mill.
We stayed at Drum with our two dogs across a rainy weekend in January and had a great time. Drum is so warm and cosy with the underfloor heating and the stove in the sitting room - it was made for a lovely cosy retreat. Even with the bad weather we were able to get to Mussenden Temple and Giant's Causeway (which are both dog friendly!) We had great meals at Bushmills Inn and Harry's Shack and got lovely takeaway pastries and bread from Ursa Minor. Alan, the House Manager, has the Drum in perfect shape and the dogs loved the dog treats and we appreciated the extra dog towels which helped with t...more
It was great to stay in a historic property.
Fantastic surroundings with great views. The roof top view is great! The whole place is great. The stone stairs may be a challenge for some, but they do add to the charm and are doable. We enjoyed a very peaceful stay. We highly recommend it!
Loved the beautiful curved door as we entered this heritage home! We were really looking forward to staying in a unique country home, but were disappointed when we arrived as it looking very neglected and unclean from the outside. It was near a gorgeous treed area and private country road, but the sign to stay out of the area due to hunting was also a disappointment. We were met by a lovely woman who was kind and informative.
Our housekeeper, Alison, was there to meet us on our arrival on Friday afternoon and gave us a quick tour of our cosy cottage, it was a cold day and the fire was blazing. The accommodation was spotless and had every amenity we required for cooking, etc. The garden and surrounding fields and laneway were covered with beautiful snowdrops. We brought our dog Rosie on this trip and she too was well spoilt. Thanks Alison
