Holiday rentals with a fire pit in County Down

Our entire group’s nicest Airbnb experience ever. We were looking for a quiet, relaxing spot to spend the Christmas hols and couldn’t have asked for a better place or better hosts. Not only was the accommodation lovely, clean, and well stocked with anything we might need, Valerie went above and beyond to make our stay truly special. From gorgeous Christmas decorations, tasty treats and fresh local milk to a cosy fire already roaring upon arrival, it was such a wonderful stay. They even left us little gifts under the tree to enjoy on Christmas morning! Thank you so much, the perfect backdrop for memories we’ll cherish forever.

John is always helpful and there if you need him. accommodation is warm and welcoming and I've returned several times. Will be back.

Alex was an amazing host - always available if we needed anything, very helpful and super friendly, we felt very welcomed there . The house was clean comfortable and came stocked with everything you needed. The hot-tub was clean, private and welcoming in a very peaceful area with a great view of the stars! the local area was great too with liberty beaches nearby ! An overall excellent experience ☺️

A nice little get away beside Bangors harbour, the house was lovely and clean. The hottub in the back garden was also an extra bonus! The host is absolutely amazing, the amount of communication and instructions I cannot fault, we will definitely be back!

Sundaywell Cottage was easily one of the best Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed in—if not the best. The cottage was spotless; it honestly felt like we were the very first guests to stay there. The cottage is finished to a very high standard. The bed was incredibly comfortable with crisp white bedding, and the hot shower was a real treat. The large shed next to the cottage was really handy too—it had a washing machine and garden furniture cushions, which we made good use of. We especially loved the fire pit and sitting out to watch the sun go down—such a peaceful way to end the day. Check-in was seamless, and it was reassuring to know they were just next door if we needed anything. That said, the cottage felt very private and incredibly quiet, which we appreciated. Nicki and Ryan recommended a few places to eat, The Artisan and Balloo House; both were absolute standouts for us, thanks for that guys! This stay was exactly what we needed to unwind and relax. We thoroughly enjoyed our time!

We stayed here with our two sons and our dog. The house was so comfortable and cosy. The space was perfect and so well designed and maintained. The gardens were fab and very secure so the dog could potter around and we could leave the door open. The beds were super comfy and the kitchen was easy to use. I’d highly recommend this house to anyone travelling this direction. As an aside, the local area is stunning. We completed many walks and many cafes etc were dog friendly so we could bring her inside which was so easy when the weather was bad. This is my new favourite location in Ireland as it was just so easy and every single person we met was so nice. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this house to friends and family!

The views were unbelievable! The gorse was in full bloom and surrounded us on all sides. We could see a wisp of the sea from our rooms along with the forest and hills. The little sheep behind us were an added perk as they came to drink from their trough every day with their lambs. We felt private and secluded and it was peaceful and restful. Loved, loved loved this location.

Very pleased with our visit, vikki was very responsive to messages and Tom was there to greet us on arrival, the welcome basket was a lovely touch. The apartment was very clean and spacious, kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Will definitely choose Belfast Base as our place to stay in our next visit.

Just back from our stay the apartment was spotless and had everything you could need and more. It was easy to find and clear instructions for access. Walking into the apartment it was so homely and warm and the view was amazing. The beds were lovely and comfortable. We had 2 dogs with us and the outside patio and grass area were so handy and closed in. The apartment is so handy for nearby amenities shop , coffee shops etc. We couldn't fault the apartment and John's gift of wheaten bread was appreciated. We would definitely return and couldn't recommend it highly enough.

Fabulous location and host! From start to finish Karen prioritised our experience. the location was perfect as a base for day trips. the apartment was well maintained and spotless. the attention to detail was appreciated, the iron, the hairdryer, the bathroom products you may forget to pack, Karen had it covered. the beds were very comfortable and having an en-suite for both bedrooms allowed us to really relax. Highly recommend this apartment.

Really enjoyed our stay at Rory and Jill’s place. Extremely helpful hosts. Very walkable to great restaurant snacks convenient for exploring the area.

We stayed for two nights in Sleepy Hollow. It was amazing! The cottage was immaculate with many lovely touches and a personal welcoming card. Roy and Iris were brilliant hosts, very welcoming and helpful. The cottage had everything that we could possibly have needed including bread, butter , jam & marmalade, milk, tea, coffee and biscuits. There were little packets of tissues and chocolates by our bed and lovely fresh posies of flowers everywhere. The garden and grounds are simply stunning with several quirky places to sit and two with wood burners. It was so peaceful with the sound of birds singing and even a rabbit which appeared a couple of times. Attention to detail was so evident in both house and grounds. Sleepy Hollow is a very central spot for exploring the North Coast and is very convenient to Ballymoney while still feeling far from the maddening crowd! We would highly recommend Sleepy Hollow as a perfect getaway!

Very peaceful vibe about the place would recommend to anyone interested in booking it!

One of the best places we have stayed. The photos do not do justice to the place. Well thought of. We all loved it. Thank you from all if us for the arrangements, Joanne and Steve.

Met with a warm welcome, to a lovely modern suite, well equipped, within walking distance to the train and 10 min into the downtown core. Kelly and her husband were so welcoming we felt like we were visiting family. It was our first trip to Ireland and they helped make it memorable.

Amazing location, beautifully set up private pods/cabins. Ciara sent us many emails ro include things to do on arrival, possible locations to visit and even sent out a spotify play list to set the mood. We didnt ask to check in early but got an email before 1400 hrs saying that the place was ready and we could check in. Its the most idyllic and peaceful place and we will for sure return again for a few nights. Odin, the family dog paid us a few visits which was lovely. Thank you for a wonderful stay ❤️

Thoroughly enjoyed clean cosy home from home. Lovely to see all the nature around us. Rabbits, Birds, cattle and horses were entertaining to watch. Especially the check in from the little terrier and white cat.

Stayed here for one night. Lovely spot- clean, cosy, relaxing space, nice to be able to use the sauna. Would recommend heating the sauna two hours before you want to use it!! Takes a while to heat up. Overall, is a great spot:)

A beautiful property, I would say unique with privacy, view on to a lake fringed with bulrushes and reeds, wonderful variety of birdlife including ducks, moorhens, and an errant heron. The cabin is very well equipped, good electric shower, loved the record player and vinyl selection. Very clean, plenty of soft towels and toiletries. Only comment would be that the bed is a small double. Fine for me travelling solo! And probably no problem at all for others :-)

Thank you Robin for a wonderful stay. The hot tub was amazing, as was the surrounding views. The bed was extremely comfy and the cabin itself is very cosy!

We travelled from Ballycastle just for the weekend for two days for my mum birthday and we had the best time, the weather was gorgeous, the house was really well cleaned and was gorgeous, Hot Tub was the best and we all had a great wee time and would highly recommend without hesitation and Georgia was really helpful and gave all the instructions and will definitely be back again. 🥰🥰

Really enjoyed my stay here with the dog. The cabin was super comfy, clean and had everything I needed. The peaceful setting with birds singing and quiet evening made it a great place to unwind. The host was lovely and made the place feel very warm and welcoming. Would definitely come back again!😊🐶

Second time staying at The Meadow, always feel welcome when staying and will definitely be back!
