A recently renovated holiday home situated in Ballymena, Crebilly Cottage - Rural Life doesn't get better features a garden. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is located 45 km from SSE Arena.

We stayed in the cottage for 4 nights at the beginning of August. The house was great, had plenty of space and was very clean. Alan was a great host and gave us tourist information and a wonderful “welcome” basket with all sorts of goodies! The location is ideal for visiting Northern Ireland and we loved the silence and being surrounded by nature! I would definitely recommend Alan and the cottage!!

    We liked everything about the property, the space was fantastic for a large family get together, the layout worked so well for families sharing as everyone had their own space, the bedrooms were big enough for families and the beds were comfy. We loved the kitchen area where we could all sit together. The games room was an extra bonus for the kids too. The property is set in such a beautiful area too on a farm with gorgeous sunsets each evening.

    The whole place absolutely exceeded expectations! A wonderful home away from home with everything you need! It was spacious enough for our family of 4, with room to spare! There was such an amazing set up for little ones - a cot, high chair and toys to name a few. The kitchen was fully equipped and included a dishwasher and washing machine. It was perfect and the location was brilliant too! Can't recommend it enough, and Gladys is such a wonderful host! So welcoming 😊 Thank you Gladys for everything!

    Oranmore is a family-run property, which makes you feel like you are staying in a home away from home. The staff are lovely and very attentive to guest needs. The food is exceptional, the location very good (walking distance to the train station with easy access to Derry or Belfast), and the rooms are peaceful and quiet. The chickens and gardens are an added bonus. Perfect property for couples, solos, and families.

    felt like home from home, the owner very to detail with everything and so thoughtful for families. we had toddlers with us and she provided cots, potty’s, toddler cutlery and much more! home made cakes on arrival and essential things for the fridge and cupboards. little touches which show the owner cares and thinks a lot about her guests.

    Amazing food at dinner and breakfast. Fantastic cocktails in the bar. Marcus was taking care of our group during the dinner and everything was outstanding. The receptionists were very nice and they helped us look after my daughter's medication (it had to be kept in the fridge). The hotel management team definitely know their business, I highly recommend this hotel for private functions and family events.

    Adair House has everything you could practically need for a family stay in Ballymena - it's 'kitted out' exceptionally well! The bedrooms were so comfy and peaceful and the TVs in them were a great bonus. A cosy front room and a great kitchen diner. The owners went above and beyond in helping us; friendly communications and they installed stairgates, a cot, highchair etc. for our toddler. It is a really lovely house to retreat to after a busy day out. Thanks so much!
