Our stay was entirely too brief! Our hostess, Josie was so attentive. The cottage was very comfortable and for us, thought of every possible need! We highly recommend her cottage!
We had a wonderful stay at Josie’s lovely home! After a warm welcome from our host upon arrival, she showed us a few key points about the place. The kitchen and baths were extremely well appointed and clean. Communication throughout our 3-night stay was gracious, friendly and quick. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained…loved watching the mare and her new foal! We highly recommend Josie and her accommodations!
Thanks Josie, lovely clean bungalow. Home from home. Everything we needed including a welcome pack of essentials. Lots of parking space outside and nice and quiet
A very comfortable, well equipped house. Excellent value.
Josie is an ideal host - happy to help but not intrusive. If we are in the area again we'd be very happy to stay here once more.
Lovely house in the country. For a get away from it all yet centrally located, hard to beat. House is lovely and the owner is wonderful. The house was well equipped had all the basics needed supplied.
Highly recommended!!
Fantastic! Josie and Brian are the best hosts ever! There was a lovely gift basket in the kitchen when we arrived and Josie was there to greet us. She always has a smile.We loved the house (very clean) and organized. The location is perfect. Very close to Cookstown for shopping and in the center of Northern Ireland, so going in any direction was not a long drive. The kitchen and the baths were fully supplied, and all of the rooms were nicely furnished. If we return to N.I., this is where we will stay!
Wonderful place to stay . . . And centrally located too!
I was in Northern Ireland for a combination of business and pleasure that would take me to Belfast. Donegal, Banbridge, Portrush, and more. This place was perfectly located to serve as a central location.
The house was clean, comfortable, warm, and inviting. The owner was absolutely delightful and responsive to my communications. Best of all, the owner really prepares for guests in a manner that demonstrates how welcome you are to stay there.
From the moment I drove up the driveway and was greeted by the horses in the front paddock, I felt an instant sense of peace, like I’d come home. Each morning, waking to see them grazing just outside my bedroom window was such a gift.The house itself is spotless, comfortable, and has everything you could possibly need. You can tell how much love and care has gone into creating such a welcoming space.The hosts were wonderful, kind, genuine, and so easy to talk with. Their hospitality made my stay even more special.It’s one of those places that stays with you long after you’ve left. I’ll definitely be back.
We felt right at home in this comfortable, well appointed country self cater. Our host was helpful and easy to contact. The location, as described to us is ‘in the middle of nowhere in the middle of everywhere’. If you are touring N Ireland and want to be an hour from everything, the location is perfect with picture perfect rural roads to explore.I can’t say enough about how wonderful the host is and how well prepared she is, including a basket of much appreciated supplies
Our first accommodation on our first trip to Ireland was like a story book. We had heard about Irish hospitality, and Josie meeting us at check in, having some food treats, and helping us figure out some tech issues made a great start of our trip. The accommodations were comfortable, well-appointed, and everything we needed was close at hand. It was a very peaceful setting next to a pasture where Mama mare gave birth to a foal the morning of our departure. It was a convenient drive for our three main destinations in the area - back to Dublin, to Belfast, and to Rathlin island to see puffins, then on to the rope bridge and Giant's Causeway. We would highly recommend a stay at this wonderful accommodation.
Perfect setting in NI. Extraordinary property and host!
This was our first trip to Ireland and Josie and Brian’s property was our first stop during our travels for a stay of 5 nights. The location is an easy drive from DUB airport (Belfast airport would have been easy too) and Josie was so kind to let us check-in early as the previous renters had already departed. The house was immaculate, well furnished and very comfortable. Views from the house are beautiful and there are wonderful walks directly from the house. The house is situated in a perfect location to spoke out for day trips (The Giant’s Causeway, Ulster & American Folk Museum, and Lough Neagh to name a few of many possible excursions) Josie’s warm welcome made us feel completely at home and we all enjoyed our subsequent chats. Our group consisted of my aging parents, brother and teenaged niece— the house accommodated us perfectly. I hope to return with my husband and 2 adult sons on a future visit. Thank you Josie!
We stayed here for a week and couldn't fault this place. Josie was lovely and ever so helpful. It made our stay very easy as it was near to where we wanted to be. Thank you for letting us stay

perfect base for touring northern ireland
we booked this property while working in Northern Ireland in it was perfect to come back to on an evening, much better than staying in a hotel.Would happily return for a vacation with family...Thankyou!
Beautiful large house with everything you need. 4 of us including 2 teenagers with room to spare! Ideal location, enjoyed using the house as a base for day trips. Lots to see and do and very conveniently located!
Comfortable spacious holiday accommodation in quiet location
Comfortable spacious accommodation. Large kitchen/diner and convenient to have two bathrooms. Josie is a very courteous and responsive host. The location is very quiet, accessed via single track roads.
This property, the hosts, the home, the setting were all perfect. This was the best VRBO we have ever stayed in and Josie and Bryan were the perfect hosts. They are truly wonderful people. If this home is available in the time frame and area you are looking at then book it ASAP. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and made some new friends as a result.
Great home, perfect location, everything we needed and above all the best host imaginable! Josie went out of her way to welcome us and prepare for us. We had arrived just days after storm Eowyn when much of the country was without power. She secured back up lodging for us just in case the power didn't return. We will definitely stay again if back in the area and highly recommend this lodging!
Couldn't have asked for more. Even down to the extra's left for us on our arrival. Can't recommend highly enough. Great location everywhere within an hour or so away at most attractions North, South East or West.
What a nice place. Not to far from town. Was a good place for all our day trips. Josie was extremely helpful and great to talk to. Would love to come back again and spend more time here. A peaceful setting. Great neighbors! A horse ready to foal. Thanks Josie!
From the moment we arrived, we were home. Accomodations were perfect. Owners were perfect. Town was perfect. Views were perfect.

Superb. Excellent. Unmatched.
We won't stay anywhere else....
