About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Pink Cottage Upstairs Suite and Secret Garden... beautiful walks & sea view.

The boutique upstairs suite of The Pink Cottage is tranquil and cosy with a traditional vintage interior style that's just intriguing.

We aim to make each guest feel completely pampered.

It has breath-taking sea views and a private secluded and sheltered Secret Garden to unwind in! 

The Pink Cottage is situated on a stunning rural headland walk that leads to Blackhead Lighthouse & a coastal path which meanders along to the Victorian town of Whitehead in Northern Ireland. 

Ideal for guests who want to journey along the rugged Causeway Coast, with the spectacular Gobbins Cliff Path and its suspension bridges 5mins away. 

Other treats on this magnificent coast worth exploring include the UNESCO world heritage site of the Giant’s Causeway, a staircase-like geological feature, also Game of Thrones film locations, rope bridges, fishing villages all on this coastal drive straight from our pink front door! 

A few minutes walk along our lane is an 18 hole golf course, Whitehead Golf Club, where guests are made very welcome if they wish to play or just use the restaurant.

Or, if you simply want to relax, unwind and rejuvenate... its perfect.

The original part of the cottage was built around 400 years ago, so we are told. It has lots of original charm, in particular the head height....some doorways are a little small, so mind your head!
