Amazing one of a kind home - we loved it! Ashside cottage was our favorite stay in Ireland for our extended family group vacation. The hosts welcomed us personally with such warmth, and even some lovely local treats (yum!). The property is gorgeous and lush, and the home has been beautifully renovated (if you are a creative craftsperson or a photographer you will love it). The kids ran around and played hide and seek, found all the little statues creatively placed in the masonry, and we made friends with the impressive horses across the fence. Great for families, and very thoroughly appointed with everything needed for a fantastic, comfortable stay. Thank you for your remarkable hospitality Rosemary and Richard.

The cottage was a perfect place for our group of four long time friends to have a relaxing place to stay. The cottage and grounds were so beautiful. Much love and work has gone into making this place so pleasant. Richard and Rosemary were amazing hosts. From being there to greet us (with fresh baked bread), answering any questions and providing recommendations for our visit, they truly did everything to make our visit wonderful and memorable.

We had a wonderful stay at Ashside Cottage. It was exactly what we were looking for. After leaving Dublin the kids wanted a country experience in Northern Ireland and this was perfect. So much space both inside and out that we could spread out. The kids loved the horse neighbors up above! The only thing I would change is that I would book a longer stay to explore more of the area! Our hosts were fabulous and so welcoming and communicated great before the trip as I was asking for recommendations for a taxi service. They met us at the property to show us around and led us to a nearby store to buy some food. The house was stocked with everything we needed as a family of 7! It was a wonderful experience! Thank you!
