About this cottage rental
PORTHOLE COTTAGE has a superb location on the Causeway Coastal Route set in farmland above Whitepark Bay. The cover picture is of Ballintoy, a Game of Thrones location and it's only a short drive to the Dark Hedges, also featured in filming Game of Thrones. Many attractions of the Causeway Coast region are just a five minute drive - eg, Bushmills, Giants Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede, Portballintrae, Dunluce Castle and Ballycastle. Ideally placed for visiting Belfast, Londonderry and Donegal. For Daniel O’Donnell fans a day trip to his home area of Kincasslagh in Donegal is a real treat.

Margaret and Bill were very accommodating hosts for my friends and I. This was our first time in Belfast, so they had lots of recommendations for us and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The house was cozy and tidy, and we all felt very welcomed. The location was very convenient as it was close drive to the Giant's Causeway, Dunluce & Dunseverick Castles, and many more must-see destinations. My friends and I have already talked about coming back as there is so much more to see.

This accommodation was a lovely two bedroom cottage in a quiet area close to White Park Bay. Scrupulously clean with everything a guest could need supplied. So warm and cosy and the owners were friendly and accommodating, happy to answer any questions and lived on the grounds. I stayed there with my dog and enjoyed the amenities close by, the beaches and the lovely walks. I will return and recommend this cottage without hesitation

A lovely stay in a lovely part of the world. The hosts were very nice and friendly. They gave clear instructions and directions. The house was nice and clean and warm, and the beds were comfortable. We were able to have a nice fire in the fireplace, which was really nice. The surrounding area was beautiful.
