Lovely cottage in outstanding area

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location overlooking open countryside. Everything you need is there. It's located just outside Bushmills, a village with lots of eateries and a good visitor centre. Just down the road is the Giants Causeway and some splendid beaches.

Charmant cottage tout confort

C'est charmant, très propre, très bien équipé. Et en plus le cadre est magnifique et confortable. L'emplacement est idéal pour visiter la côte d'Antrim et ses sites magnifiques : la chaussée des géants, Bushmills, les îles, Derry, Belfast, les falaises, profiter des plages et des activités nautiques.... Il n'y a que l'embarras du choix.
