Property Castle View Cottage - Bushmills

If you are looking for stunning views of the Causeway coast and beyond in a traditional Irish cottage which has been fully re-furbished then this is where you need to come! This Cottage is pre-1850. It was a thatched farm cottage until 1930. It was fully refurbished (i.e. re-wired, re-plumbed and fully insulated) in 2010/2011.

It has views over Dunseverick castle ( the oldest Castle ruin in Ireland, dating back over 1500 years, with many legends and lots of history - a seat of Irish Kings! St Patrick once visited) The views out back  to Islay, across to Rathlin and the Mull of Kintyre, and the more nearby Whitepark bay are uninterrupted and stunning. There is a pleasant 45-50 minute walk, westerly up to the Giant’s Causeway from the back door. The cliff path continues the other direction towards the pretty Dunseverick  harbour, Port Bradden and Whitepark bay. The picturesque Ballintoy harbour  is within 3 miles, as is the Carrick-a-rede rope  bridge. The  natural " ports"  either side  of the castle are worth exploring, with one small cave  easily accessible.

The cottage has oil Fired central heating. There is  also a wood burning stove. It has a fully equipped fitted  kitchen, with and easy clean hob, oven, microwave oven,  fridge freezer, dishwasher and a breakfast bar. There is a  washer/ drier in a separate utility room in the  cottage.

There is a Smart TV with Satellite TV signal and good WiFi.

The main open plan living/dining/ kitchen area also  features a 10 seater farmhouse table with our family pews from Bushmills Presbyterian church either side  for seating.

There are 2 x3 seater sofas which individually  recline.

The master bedroom has an ensuite including an electric shower with instant hot water, and a bath. There is a second bathroom with electric shower at the other end of the house for the twin and single  bedrooms.

There is a separate Utility room which is also accessible from a  separate outside door for wet days ( and wet dogs!). It has a  washer/ drier, hanging  rail for wet clothing/coats, wetsuits etc, and ample room  for prams, bicycles, golf clubs, dog beds etc.

{The cottage has been featured in a Chinese reality show as a location/base for their version of America's  top model, called "I Supermodel". This was due to  be broadcast in the Spring of 2016 across China.}

This has to be experienced, even just once.
