2 Bedroom Cottage in Randalstown

Duneden provides the perfect gateway to the whole of the North. Randalstown village, recent winner of the much coveted 'Best Kept Town in Ireland' 2018 as well as 'Translink Ulster in Bloom' 2018, is a mere 10min walk away past the famous Shane's Castle gate (featured in HBO's Game of Thrones) & under the beautiful historic Viaduct Walkway. The new Game of Thrones exhibition site at Moneyglass 15mins plus the North Antrim Coast & Royal Portrush 40mins, Duneden truly is at the heart of it all.
The space
Nestled in Northern Ireland's famous emerald green hills, Duneden Cottage was designed by RIBA President Alan Jones from an ancient stone outbuilding circa 1835 its traditional exterior belying the contemporary accommodation within. It comprises of 2 spacious bedrooms, modern bathroom, compact cloakroom and large open plan living/dining area with vaulted pine ceiling & panoramic views of the fields & forest beyond. This airy, light filled space also houses a fitted kitchen with oven, hob, microwave, fridge freezer, washing machine & coffee machine. There is private parking and a rear paved terrace with 180* views of the rolling countryside providing the perfect spot to watch the sunrise. When the sun goes down, the Secret Garden beckons- a secluded twinkly lit garden with children's playhouse, dining area & Weber BBQ- ideal for atmospheric convivial nights al fresco. Guests may also have use of the BBQ/bar in the nearby courtyard should there be a 'soft night' as we say in Ireland!
Imagine reclining on the daybed after a day exploring with a freshly brewed latte, drinking in the stunning view perhaps cosying up in front of the log burner, glass of wine in hand while the kids watch a relaxing in the bath while gazing at the stars through the skylight above. Escape with a game of tennis or a picnic in the orchard. Experience the bucolic idyll that is 'Duneden'.

Summary: Everything was perfect for our couple of days visiting Northern Ireland. The host gave us a warm welcome and a private tour of the (huge!) property that includes fire pits, a tennis court, a private bar (not fully stocked obviously), and a beautiful outdoor scene where we could see sheeps from the living room and the master bedroom! The property was well furnished, and many local products were in the fridge. Don't forget to ask where the best places to see are; you won't need a guide after that! A good place for a weekend, or for a confortable house after visiting the country. Highly recommended!

Summary: From the moment we drove down the beautiful driveway arrived and met Allie the owner(extremely warm and charming) we were in heaven. A truly incredible property set on a wonderful acreage with lots of fun things to do if you are not out touring Northern Ireland (Giants Causeway, Dark Hedge, Belfast, etc.), which this a great home base to have. Randalstown is an incredible little town with lots of beautiful architecture and great pubs, filled with the most outgoing and helpful people I have ever met travelling. Duneden Cottage and the surrounding area were well worth the 2 day Ferrie trip on our Scotland road trip and highly recommend it!

Summary: We stayed at this beautiful house for 5 days, and loved every minute of it! The host was wonderful, very kind and informative. She greeted us with a basket of fresh Irish bread and other treats, and made our stay very comfortable. The horse is spotless clean, the beds and linen were high quality . The kitchen has everything you might need, the fireplace was the highlight for me, as I enjoyed it every evening! The view from the living-room window was picturesque, and the gardens around the house as well. Randall’s town is at walking distance, so this house was in a strategic location to tour the north of Ireland. I highly recommend this place and it’s owners. I will absolutely go back and stay there again, I already told all my friends about it.
