About this cottage rental

The cottage was used to accommodate the coach and its driver, who served the Hutchinson family, who lived at Stranocum Hall. It is part of Stranocum Hall but is self contained.

The cottage fell into substantial disrepair until it was fully renovated by the current owners of Stranocum Hall. Set in the grounds of the Hall, Coachman's Cottage has a spacious and airy open plan living, dining and well equipped kitchen main area. The kitchen has a dishwasher, coffee machine, fridge with ample freezer compartment, microwave oven, induction hob and full-sized oven. There is also a log burner in the living area for those cosy evenings during the cooler months of the year, although the cottage is fully centrally heated and has underfloor heating in the bathrooms for extra comfort.

Each bedroom has its own ensuite and there is also a shower room on the ground floor. All bathrooms have heated towel rails as well as underfloor heating, and a complimentary welcome toiletry pack including body wash, shampoo and body lotion is provided. The twin beds in the second bedroom can be made into a super-king, should the need arise. A cot and other baby equipment can be provided by prior request.

There is a separate utility room with a washer dryer, ironing facilities and space to hang out drying clothes. No need to bring bottled water as the entire mains water is fitted with a comprehensive in line filtration system. Outside, there is a private patio and yard, which is exclusively available for use by guests.

The Dark Hedges are just two miles away. Other famous sites are also on the door step, including several locations used for filming Game of Thrones®, such as Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge, Ballintoy Harbour, Murlough Bay, Cushendun Caves and Downhill beach. The famous Royal Portrush Golf Course is a 20-minute drive away - excellent for those visitors to The 148th Open.

The owners enjoy meeting new people and will make every effort to ensure your stay is one to remember. There are 2 dogs living with the owners, however they are not allowed to roam free when there are guests staying.

    Very modern and quaint place in the Irish countryside. Host was very nice and accommodating. Nice and quiet, convenient to all attractions and towns. We love the hospitality of the Irish. The fridge and counter tops had some very nice essentials that you don’t get in other countries we visited. Beautiful area! I would book again in a minute.

    This 1850’s Coachman’s Cottage on the Stranocum Hall property was a wonderful mix of history and modern. The hosts have added a lot of wonderful extras to make your stay enjoyable! Great spot to have access to all aspects of the Antrim Coast. You are 20 mins from everything! We would highly recommend this property and the amazing hosts!

    We selected The Coachman's Cottage as our home away from home while we explored the attractions of County Antrim and we were not disappointed. The property is well located for visits to the usual attractions like the Causeway and Bushmills. It is also handy to the walking trails of the Glens of Antrim and especially The Dark Hedges! Everything was as promised in the detailed listing and accompanying photographs. We felt right at home during our stay. Thank you Eileen.

    I cannot even put into words how warm and welcoming this VRBO felt. The guest house was beautifully crafted and put together. It didn’t seem like a cheap renovation at all. They put a lot of money and thought into the finishes of this home. Everything was so cozy and comfortable. I don’t think I’ve had a better experience staying at a VRBO.

    We really enjoyed staying at the Coachmens Cottage. Beautiful, pleaceful place to stay. Everything was well thought out and immaculately clean. Great location for make trips to sites along the coast while avoiding coastal crowds. Homemade breakfast breads, fruits and cookies were a plus. Would love to visit again!! Homeowners were very responsive.

    A perfect location for exploring all that Northern Ireland has to offer. The property was beyond what we expected and was equipped with everything we needed to make us feel at home and comfortable. Our host, Eileen, greeted us upon our arrival and made sure that the fridge and pantry were filled with all we needed for our breakfasts. A place to return to when we are again in Ireland.
