About this house rental
A big warm welcome to White Cottage, which I have lovingly restored and extended to make what I think is a wonderfully cosy home that I hope you will really enjoy. I have kept as many of the original features as possible, so you may notice a few little quirky features – I just love them 😊.
With wonderful sunsets from the decking area, perfect for a cocktail or two, and a good sized garden for children and pets, plenty of seating, a large fire pit and a summer house in the corner, the south facing garden really is a fabulous spot.
Inside, you can enjoy a stunning, very well equipped, kitchen and open plan dining area, leading to a large sitting room, with three sets of double doors to fully enjoy the balcony and garden, with a cosy wood burning stove for chillier evenings.
Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, one with en-suite bath/shower and a luxurious family bathroom with a large free standing bath and walk-in shower.
There is also a cloakroom with a separate toilet downstairs. One downstairs room off the hallway is reserved for our own possessions.
White Cottage is a former railway cottage, located right next to the stunning Co. Down coast, just a stone's throw from the beach and only a 10 to 15 minute walk along the coastal path to Holywood town. It is an ideal location for both business and pleasure, being a very short walk to Marino halt, with regular services to Bangor and Belfast Grand Central Station.
A train from White Cottage towards Bangor will take you to the Culloden Estate and Spa, the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum, many famous golf courses and Crawfordsburn Country Park, before arriving at the seaside town of Bangor, with its wonderful marina and parks.
Towards Belfast, the train will take you to the beautiful town of Hollywood, with its numerous bars, restaurants, local produce, unique shops and art galleries, not forgetting Holywood Golf Club, where Rory McIlroy first started out!
Further along you can access George Best Belfast City Airport, the Titanic Quarter with Titanic Belfast, museums and leisure attractions, before arriving at Belfast Grand Central Station, with its links to the whole island of Ireland. Coaches serve both Belfast and Dublin International Airports from this hub, along with trains to Dublin and the North Coast. Top attractions include the Giant’s Causeway, a World Heritage Site, the world famous golf course, Royal Portrush, host to the Open Championship in 2019 and 2025, and the Game of Thrones Studio Tour.
I do hope that you have a lovely stay at White Cottage and any feedback you wish to make would be greatly appreciated. There is a guest/visitor book at the house should you choose to write about your stay. If you are happy with your stay/experience, the best form of advertising is by word of mouth, so please feel free to spread the word.

This was by far the best property I have ever rented. Check-in very easy, and wifi was great. It was very, very clean (immaculate!). Beds and bedding comfortable. The kitchen was equipped with any cooking tool you could possibly need or desire, the decor was beautiful. Kitchen and baths and entire property beautifully updated. The garden and deck area were amazing for relaxing. With the train station beside the cottage you are positioned to visit literally anywhere near or far in Ireland. We did not rent a car this trip. Quick train ride away you have Titanic Quarter and all the culture, restaurants and history in Belfast. Plenty of restaurants including the Dirty Duck with its amazing views and many others in Holywood one train stop away or a quick walk along the sea front. If you like long walks with beautiful scenery this is the place to stay. The Culloden Estate and Spa (afternoon tea, champagne garden and restaurants) and the Ulster Folk Museum are also one train stop away. Once you take the quick train ride into Belfast you can then travel down to Dublin or across the North Coast to many towns, including Derry. It is a nice break from driving. For day trips we used private tour company, Giants Causeway Tours (great (!!) family run business) there are also many bus tours out of Belfast, if you prefer. Sea Front walk is minutes away and has incredible views. Amazing coffee truck on the sea front. You will not be disappointed renting this property!!

Cultra is a quiet village situated on the southern side of Belfast Lough only 10 mins drive away from Belfast City Airport.
The property itself is very neat, comfortable and well equipped with a hypermarket only 5 mins away (by car) and a local supermarket within easy walking distance.
A great place to stay, offering easy access to Belfast and beyond (by car or train).
We would most certainly stay here again !

A-J couldn’t have been more accommodating, and she has thought of everything! Down to a bottle of bubbly waiting for us when we arrived. Morning walk down on the beach, coffee on the deck, cozy vibes, comfy beds. Can’t say enough.
