Family-friendly holiday rentals in Carrickfergus

This was a last minute few days away, and what a find, so peaceful, I loved the garden, could just potter about in it all day, huge fish pond so relaxing . Little slice of heaven. We have 2 pugs one very very anxious, Nicola was so understanding. Hot tub was a wonderful bonus. Definitely recommend this place, in such a lovely area and walking distance to the beach .

We were new to this quiet part of Northern Ireland and it was a rare find to discover the Mourne Mountains, beaches and small villages close by. Jill’s home was the perfect escape for our family when we wanted to relax, cook, play games and watch movies. The hot tub was a bonus which we enjoyed despite the wet and cold rainy days. Would love to come back as we felt right at home

Lynne’s place was perfect! Just as she described. She welcomed us as soon as we arrived. The location was ideal. We covered a lot of ground from Belfast to Bushmills. The town of Dromore and Hillsborough are delightful. Would highly recommend!

Booked this house for a wee treat getaway for my mother who just went through cancer treatment with a bunch of girls & we had the best time from start to finish. The place was beautiful very spacious, had everything we needed & we really enjoyed the hottub. The host was so helpful & answered any questions i had within seconds. Would definitely recommend this place

Orla's property was a lovely escape from the hustle and bustle of busy life. A beautiful wee gem in nature, log cabin exactly as pictured, clean with all facilities to enjoy your stay. Orla was very responsive to any questions asked. We are glad we got the added extra of the hot tub, which was lovely to relax and take in the stunning views of the sun setting. We fell in love with their beautiful dogs Marti and Gerry it was lovely to get a wee visit, they were very friendly. We would definitely recommend their accommodation for an escape. We hope to visit again in the future. Thank you 😊

Myself and my partner stayed here for a night to escape the city life. We booked very last minute and Linda was extremely accommodating, which we were very grateful for considering the short notice we provided! Absolutely beautiful stay. A cosy and quaint set up, with beautiful land surrounding. So peaceful and private - exactly what we were looking for! So much character and so many little touches have been put into this place, we were obsessed! We were greeted as we arrived, shown around and most importantly introduced to the WoodFire HotTub which had been filled up for us! Kenneth was so lovely and made sure we had everything we needed! A perfect place for a couple to escape and wind down. With little to no internet connection (which is what we wanted) and no television, we were able to unwind from our busy lives! Back to the basics! We were absolutely obsessed with this place, I would recommend any couple looking for an escape to book in with Linda! 10/10 - we will be back!

This house was absolutely beautiful, with beautiful views, everything you would need in a house. The hot tub was amazing especially in the evenings looking over the bay. Trevor was kind and a lovely host. Always contactable if needed .

We had the perfect getaway with friends in this beautiful house by the sea. We were 4 adults and 3 young children and there was plenty of space for us all. There are lots of stairs which were difficult at times for the younger ones. But that didn’t take away from our stay. We got the hot tub which we thoroughly enjoyed once the kids were in bed. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent accommodation for our family of 7 with plenty of space and spare bedrooms with good local amenities and a beach close by. Only setback was the closure of the free public car park close by on the bank holiday which led to searches for space as close to the house as possible. This didn’t change our view of this excellent accommodation

It was a lovely place and easy to navigate around, We where going to a concert in Belsonic and it was a great walkable distance.

Great place to stay! Tim was so responsive with all my queries. Beautiful house with all required facilities as described. Moreover, close to Belfast city.

Bronach’s cottage is quirky and quite lovely - it sort of gives you a hug as soon as you walk in. It was lovely to find home made bread & cookies in the kitchen together with essentials in fridge - milk butter yogurts etc. so thoughtful and very much appreciated Although it feels very private with a slightly overgrown garden crammed with roses foxgloves and fuchsia - it is only a 10 drive from Holywood. I found the bed very comfortable and the bright clean bathroom had plenty of towels etc. loved the shabby chic furniture and Avoca & Bewley mugs - it’s well equipped

Charlie's place was a peaceful cottage, well positioned for visiting the Causeway. Everything was in good working order, warm to come into on the chillier nights and lots of hot water. The beds were very comfortable. as we were just 2 adults and 2 small dogs there was lots of space and the dogs were very relaxed there. good space outside, with a sitting area and clear space for turning the car. Thank you Anne!

Trevor was very helpful with messages and instructions in the house. The house was very clean and well equipped for us, we had a great time.

I think the photos don't do this house justice - it was better than I expected! Clean, comfortable beds, spacious. And Coney Island is always wonderful!

Gillian’s place is a Lovely cosy house set in beautiful countryside, very quiet and private place it was ideal for our needs. We travelled to the Balmoral Show during our stay. We ate in local restaurants in Saintfield which were also very tasty with very pleasant staff We really enjoyed our stay Thank you Gillian

Yes this flat absolutely fits the bill for a stay in Belfast in a vibrant area, but out of the busy centre. Barry helpful & v quick to help- eg when our flight plans changed & advice needed- thanks again.

The Bingham Belle was an amazing stay for our group. It's perfectly situated right next to the high street, completely pristine, and has a comfortable, homely atmosphere. Heather was super communicative and her recommendations were really helpful. It was the perfect place for us to stay in Bangor, and I could easily see our group returning in the future.

Raymie responded quickly to any of my questions prior to our stay. We were grateful for a flexible check in within reason. There was even some continental breakfast items which was nice to have available to us. A peaceful and private place for the 2 of us to enjoy. Thank you.

Darren was a very friendly and helpful host. The property was clean and cosy, it was also in walking distance to Belfast City, resulting in the car we hired not being used much at all. We would highly recommend this property.

Perfect location, great scenery overlooking Strangford Lough and ferry dock, with nice seafront walks. Kate met us at the accommodation and went through everything. Very responsive and communicated well. We wouldn’t hesitate to go back! Thank you Kate!

Apartment was great and easy to enter and exit. It was a very close walk to where our tour was and city hall. The host was excellent and so very kind. There were a few questionable characters in the back alley or wandering around at night but otherwise felt safe in the area.

Our family had a fantastic 5-night stay at "The Bank" in Portaferry! The location couldn’t have been better – right in the heart of the town. What made our stay truly special was the heritage charm of the property. So many details still reflect its history as an old bank, and that unique character really added to the experience. We especially loved the cosy fireplace, which made those cold, dark winter evenings feel warm and inviting. Plus, everything in Portaferry was just a short walk away, making it super convenient to explore the area. Having a Eurospar right across the street was such a bonus too! We absolutely enjoyed our time here and would recommend "The Bank" to anyone looking for a memorable and comfortable stay.

A Great little apartment near Queens College, clean, easy checkin, comfortable beds, and a hot shower
