The ideal rural getaway by the Causeway Coast. On a stunning headland walk to a lighthouse & Victorian town, Whitehead. Great if you want to visit The Gobbins (5mins) or explore the Causeway Coast. Or, if you simply want peace and quiet to relax & rejuvenate, it's perfect. Simple breakfast included. THE PINK COTTAGE UPSTAIRS SUITE It appears modest in size from the outside, however you’ll find your upstairs apartment is bigger than expected, extremely quiet and peaceful and very cosy. The Pink Cottage was built with traditional stone over 200 yrs ago and restored in 2021 to provide a hidden haven of tranquility. It has authentic little sash windows which provide a beautiful sea view from the living room. It has been lovingly converted to a sumptuous standard while being sympathetic to its era. Many pieces of furniture are original antiques with a long history and a story to tell (if they could) and a certain quality of workmanship. LIVING ROOM There’s a large living area with a little dining space should you want to prepare your own food. You'll find a mini-fridge, microwave, toaster, kettle along with utensils and chopping board. All this is so you can easily dine-in and heat food if you wish! All plates, bowls, glasses and wine and prosecco glasses are supplied. If you love good coffee there is ground coffee and a cafetiere. And for tea lovers there's a little selection, including loose leaf tea and an infuser teapot for the perfect brew! You'll find some lovely complimentary breakfast items waiting for you to enjoy. No need to remember to do a shop for basics before you get here! Here's what you'll find waiting for you: - Ground coffee for the cafetiere - Tea - loose leaf and bags - Local fresh milk - Luxury Muesli - Irish Organic Porridge Oats Sachets - Jams locally hand made - Local Butter The fridge is also perfect to chill beer, wine or Prosecco so you can relax and enjoy a glass of something in the evening...maybe even outdoors in the Secret Garden, weather permitting! There's a smart TV too, so you can catch-up on whatever you're watching on Netflix and the other channels. The living room also has a writing bureau, should you want to do some work, or send an old fashioned postcard! Oh, if you do, you can post it in the red letterbox just outside The Pink Cottage, daily collections! Wifi is good, should you really need to work. BEDROOM The bedroom has a very comfy luxurious king sized bed with a super quality memory foam mattress, supportive pillows and premium high thread count linens. The window has a discreet black-out blind should you want to banish the early morning light! BATHROOM The bathroom has been newly refurbished with a luxurious clawed feet roll-top traditional bath (shower in bath). The floor is a vintage design tile with the added luxury of underfloor heating to keep your toes toasty! And of course, the towels are white and fluffy. We also provide full length white cotton bath robes to wrap yourself in for that perfect spa feeling after you have soaked in the bath using the complimentary bath salts! THE SECRET GARDEN You also have private access to the Secret Garden which lies hidden at the bottom of our garden. It's sheltered and secluded with high hedges, looking over the sea...perfect to sit and read and listen to the birds... There's a chiminea for the cooler evenings and a bbq if the weather's good!  I also supply you with some kindling, logs, tea lights, bbq coals, matches...all you need for a couple of evenings to keep warm in the garden while watching the sunset. The soft chair cushions are kept easily accessible in a storage container just beside the garden, so it's quick and easy to get comfy and enjoy the sea air. Bring a good book and if you're still sitting there after the afternoon sun fades, there's a couple of blankets if it gets chilly! And the best bit...no-one will know you're even there! ​ ON ARRIVAL On arrival there is a narrow little staircase just inside the front door that brings you to your totally private accommodation. Please be mindful of your head going through the door at the top of the stairs...it was built hundreds of years ago when people were smaller! As the stairs are compact, it isn't suitable for children or pets. Parking is available to the front of the cottage near the white wall. We can provide safe overnight storage for bikes and golf clubs.
