Would definately stay again 👍

The location was perfect, we were visiting family who currently works in Carlingford. We spent most of our days out exploring the area. The kitchen was well equipped, the living room comfortably sat four. Loved the bonus of an outside space to drink our morning coffee.

Fell in love with Carlingford, love the scenery, the history, the charm of the town.

The location was very pretty with excellent views over the Harbour and just a short walk to all the local historic buildings including King John's Castle. Very convenient for shops/pubs and restaurants. A gem of a town.

Great stay will definitely go back

Lovely clean accommodation with everything you need. Easy to get key code. Still near all the pubs and restaurants in walking distance yet the boathouse looks out over the water and very peaceful
