    Great affordable accommodation in the Ballymena area only a 5 minute walk away from the train and bus station and with free on street parking outside. The room was surprisingly big, it was nice and clean, the bed comfy and even had a big screen t.v. 😁 tea, coffee and bottled water in the room was a nice touch and you can help yourself to a lot of stuff downstairs in the kitchen. Brad's a great host, very easy going and helpful and makes you feel at ease in his home. I hope to stay again in the future.

    Stayed in a one bedroom cottage suite. The space was great. Loved the design with a toilet on the ground flr and upstairs in the bedroom. Staff were great especially Kathryn and Fernando in Fratelli. My husband wanted to combine 2 dishes and Fernando made sure he got what he wanted. Kathryn was also a great host and made the evening very pleasurable. Especially with a tip to book the giant causeway before going.

    Really lovely little cottage, great views, comfy bed and great bathroom. Overall standard of the cottage was exceptional and was a pleasure to stay there. Damian was a great host and checked in with us, leaving a little basket of goodies when we arrived. Overall was a great experience and would recommend to anyone staying in the area.
