This was one of my favourite places to stay during the trip. Brian was super responsive and helpful from start to finish. I loved the little town of Holywood, quiet and friendly but close enough to the big city. Brian recommended a restaurant around the corner from us and it’s probably the best Indian I’ve ever had. Highly recommend a stay here.

The property owner, Brian, was extremely helpfull. He gave me directions to several local places of interest. If you like local flavor, there is plenty within walking distance. I will definately book it again.

The house was generally clean, a little bit of updating is needed to fix a damaged window lock in the back bedroom, treat a patch of damp in the bathroom, and secure a floor strip on one of the doorways. But the house has everything you could reasonably need for a short-medium stay. The location is generally quiet, with quick access to the local high street, and trains into Central Belfast. The host is decent at communicating check-in info, and facilities.
