- "The staff is what will bring me back. In particular, John was over the top. He was the star of our stay, thanks again for a wonderful stay it felt like home away from home." - "The whole family agreed 5 Star service with a Belfast welcome! Absolutely stunning apartment - home from home but the people made it for us. On hand to take care of our every need but also amazingly pre-empting things that would make our stay even more amazing than we could imagine. We felt our stay was curated to totally take care of our personal preferences and built around our planned activities. Thank you to Chris and Katie and the team for everything and also to the personal driving services of Syd and Robert."

- "Great house, location and host! All perfect." - "Everything was brilliant from start to finish." - "This very sweet cottage is located in a beautiful rural setting. We had the cottage to ourselves, but the host who lives in her home on the property was very accessible but not in the slightest bit invasive.

There were some very nice touches that were particularly special, including a welcome basket of homemade treats, and some basic food supplies for our stay."
