  We unknowingly booked Sea Breeze during the 4 day Lammas Fair.

  We were informed only 3 days prior to arrival that it was happening and that road outside the property was to be closed Monday and Tuesday from 8am to 10pm and that we wouldn’t be able to move our car during these times. We were not informed that there would be a funfair in the park opposite playing loud, blaring music till 11pm over the 4 days. It was unbearable. My young daughter couldn’t sleep and we felt trapped. The freezer door was broken on arrival. I informed the owners but it wasn’t repaired whilst we were there. The sash windows didn’t lock properly so it was impossible to keep the noise of the fairground out. There was a strange, musty smell on the stairs. I often kept the front door open to air the area. The shower in the front room was stuck on hot - the thermostat wasn’t working. I managed to find alternative accommodation away from Ballycastle for 2 nights so my daughter could get some sleep but neither the owner nor Sykes were willing, as a act of goodwill, to reimburse me the extra expense. Will not be using again.

  We had a wonderful stay at this property.

  It has a great location with lovely views of the town and Carlingford Lough. It is conveniently situated with easy access to the town. The rooms are spacious and well laid out with comfortable furniture. Everything we needed was there. If we had a wish list it would be to add a smart tv so that we could watch netflix etc. We missed having an ensuite but the bathroom was handy to all bedrooms so it wasn't a serious issue. The second toilet was useful. We would have preferred dog proof fencing at the front of the property or perhaps a fully fenced backyard. There was no barrier between the house at both ends to prevent our small dog from leaving the property had it tried to. The rear fence slats were a little wide or at least appeared to be consequently we had to stand guard whilst our Zoe went outside. All in all a great property and a credit to its owners. Thanks for allowing us to spend a week there, we thoroughly enjoyed it. Oh and thanks so much for the goodies you left for us, tea cakes and crisps etc.

  From the moment Eileen met us at the door with the keys we felt right at home here.

  Lovely house, cozily furnished and so comfortable, with fantastic views of the beach from the picture window in the living room. Mussenden Temple and Downhill Demesne is practically across the street, and we loved having such easy access to its beautiful grounds and well maintained walking paths. The house is just a few miles from some of the most spectacular stops on the Causeway Coastal Route (Dunluce Castle, Giant’s Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge), and we had a great time exploring the area and its many wonders. There are a couple of good dining options in Castlerock (the Meatbox makes amazing burgers), and plenty of options nearby for grocery shopping if you prefer to prepare your own meals. A wonderful experience overall, would be happy to stop here again. Highly recommended.

  If you are thinking of visiting Northern Ireland, I can highly recommend Sea Breeze, Ballycastle as a place to stay.

  Our family of 5 had a great time in Antrim and Sea Breeze had a lot to do with that. Firstly it is in a great location, a short walk either left or right will bring you to the seafront or to the town. There are lots of great pubs and places to eat. The house itself was spotless and so comfortable for our family of 5. We had everything we needed, the WiFi worked well, a must for the teenagers. The washer and dryer are great to have on hand. Bedrooms and beds were really comfortable, the en suites lovely. We used the kitchen to cook on some evenings and it had all the utensils required. If you get the sun, just sit on the balcony and enjoy the view. There is so much to see and do in Antrim and this is a great base. Honestly I cannot fault it.

  A lovely home from home with everything you could possibly need.

  Beautifully furnished and comfortable. And pet friendly too. Warm and cosy with super views. The log burner was great, although the house heats up really quickly and easily anyway. Excellent location near the beach, village, train station and lovely walk to Mussenden Temple. Suitable for a couple or small family. (The back door entrance is directly in to the single bedroom so couldn’t really be used if that bedroom is occupied.) Not a big problem. It was perfect for us as a couple with dog. Eileen, the housekeeper, was great. Very welcoming and couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. Also a wealth of local knowledge. We would definitely recommend this property and wouldn’t hesitate to return for another stay.
