Immaculate, comfortable, well stocked and in a great location. We very much enjoyed our stay at this property in Bushmills. It is close to every site you might want to visit in the area. The town is a perfect size with many options for restaurants and shops, and a ten minute walk from your accommodation. Highly recommended, we would definitely book here again.

Perfect spot to tour the Causeway Coast.

The property had everything a family needs for an enjoyable stay. It was a good size for a family with two grown up children. The area was quiet with welcoming neighbours and the basket of supplies was a lovely touch for when we arrived. Thank you Trevor and Lynne. We will definitely go back at some point.

The best stay in all of Ireland

This was the perfect stay for our family of 6 ranging from 3 years old to 62. The property owner was so kind and helpful. The place was immaculate, supplied well and spacious. So cute and in the cutest little town. Also a bonus was the sweet neighbor next door who let us love on her dog as we were missing ours. Would recommend this stay to everyone. Perfect distance from many things to do - giants Causeway, Derry, Garrick a rede, Belfast, portrush, several castles.

About the host

Hosted by Trevor Wasson

Host profile image
I was born and grew up in Northern Ireland and, as a child, spent my holidays in the North Coast area.
I was in the construction business in Belfast and currently live in the Newtownabbey area.

Why they chose this property

As a child, my family spent holiday time in the North Coast Area. I married a Portstewart girl and we continued to holiday in this area with our young family.
We purchased Larchfield new in 2006 and collected the keys on the Wednesday of Easter week. We installed the furniture we had purchased over the previous months in the next 36 hours, and our first Guests arrived from London on Good Friday!
Larchfield is well constructed and well situated for our needs and those of our Guests.

What makes this property unique

Larchfield has a rural aspect, is situated in a virtually traffic-free cul-de-sac, yet is within a few minutes walking distance of the hustle of Bushmills. also easy driving distance of fabulous areas of natural beauty.
Larchfield and the surrounding area, is pet-friendly with lots of scenic walks nearby.
