Parking is especially good and location in Ballycastle is excellent. The town itself is lovely and a perfect base for exploring Antrim. Small negatives: There were no instructions/guides in the house. We needed to know to turn on the hot water before attempting to have a shower, and there were no instructions for appliances etc. The front door was complicated to open and we needed to enter a long code every time (there was no key). There was no step free access (needed for disabled guests). The bathrooms are too small. The small bedroom is very small and only really suited to 2 children. The welcome hamper would have been better if it included essentials for a first meal (when we arrived the supermarkets were closed). But these are all minor issues. Overall we would have rated the properly 4 stars (not the 5 stars given by Sykes), however there was a huge negative on the time that we stayed. Do not stay in this property over the August bank holiday under any circumstances!!! The Auld Lammas Fair means that ALL of the streets are closed in Ballycastle and this property is exactly in the centre of the fair! We could use our car for 2 whole days as the drive was blocked by traders, so the disruption was far worse that we had been led to believe and rather spoiled our stay. The funfair opposite was very loud until 11pm for 3 nights! We would stay again, but not at the end of August!!!

Was lovely for the kids and comfy and relaxing for the adults. Bunk beds were a big hit. Had all we needed for us to easily stay and make food in the kitchen. Will Def be back

Our beds were lovely and comfy and our grandson loved the bunkbed, a first for him, sleeping on top. The apartment is well-maintained, spacious and well equipped and very well placed between the harbour and the town centre. There is no shortage of shops and good places to eat within walking distance, much better than at home! Our grandson also loved having a playground directly opposite, but down the hillside, so no noise problems for us. We spent much time, glass in hand, looking out of the front window onto Knocklayd mountain, sometimes bathed in evening sunlight, sometimes rendered invisible by low cloud. Missing it already!
