Whitepark Cottage was perfect for us. We are a group of five, very diverse ages, personalities and needs and everyone was very happy. The kitchen is fully kitted out. My uncle even foun bran flakes and instant oatmeal in the pantry. In and out was quick and painless , and the hosts were lightening fast responsive with great useful info. I definitely recommend!

Great location on the Antrim coast

We had a very nice time at Whitepark cottage. It is on the edge of the town, which worked for us as we were taking trips out along the coast. Clodagh provided a very helpful bespoke booklet with lots of information about the area, shops, bars and restaurants etc. The house itself is very comfortable and it was great to have a nice big kitchen. The lounges is also spacious with plenty of comfortable seating. The cooker / hob is a bit tired and could do with being replaced, the washing line was broken, and the quality of the cutlery was rather poor, but otherwise the facilities were good. These are minor things and did not seriously detract from our enjoyment of the property and our stay.

A nice cottage, very well equipped. The host was nice and accommodating, easy to communicate with. The problem was that the house was not cleaned up to the standards. Just a day before the check in the host announced that one of the bathrooms could not be used due to the plumbing problems. The only bathroom was not really cleaned. We had to clean it ourselves. The sofa in the living room was covered in dog’s hair, and so was the kitchen floors. The second floor bedrooms were much cleaner.

Great location for exploring the area. The neighbours are friendly and gave us some tips. Dogs welcome in lots of places. The trains were an easy option for trips into Belfast and Derry. Free park n ride at Ballymoney
