Brookhall Cottages

Pauline is a lovely hostess and very helpful with directions. Her property is peaceful and extensive and she welcomes guests to walk around it to visit the sheep, ducks and goats. It is self-catering and there are several grocery stores nearby. You do need a car to reach this location but it is very near the town of Lisburn. Lisburn is connected to Belfast and a variety of other destinations by train. We parked the car at the Lisburn train station or on the surrounding streets (for free every day) and purchased round trip train tickets to go in and out of Belfast (4 - 6 Euro total). Belfast is a small, walkable city and most tours leave from the Belfast train station area, so driving in Belfast is not necessary. Hillsbourough - a small English town - is 4 miles from the cottage and does require the car. It is worth visiting if you are interested in touring the Royal family's official Northern Ireland home and gardens.

Make sure you have clear directions before you try to find this place. We travelled without GPS or data but thankfully, we had the staff delivery men at the Iceland grocer in Lisburn, help us find the cottage.

Pauline was very nice and the girls l9ved Jack the dog and the small pony and mule. The accomodation was nice and clean with a good distance to lisburn, hillsborogh and Moira good base for the whole north and east coast

Nothing it was lovely but just be mindfully that while its close to towns and villages it is not in one.

We liked the location because it was out of the city area but still close enough to explore it. It’s a cottage on a small farm/reception venue that offers everything you need. A well equipped kitchen for cooking, good heating, lounge area with TV/streaming and a washing machine. We enjoyed the stay a lot.

It is out in the countryside and is beautiful. The cottage itself was really well appointed. We were able to cook our Christmas dinner and celebrate with our family.

Our family was in Stormont and it was a bit far to always drive in.

Location 10, privacy 10, comfort 10. Would stay again and recommend to friends and family. Host was delightful and there when needed. Completely stress free.

Tiny thing really. Kitchen needs set of large knives. Blind in bedroom skylight wont stay closed (Peartree Cottage). Last minute booking. Sick family member. For the money we paid....zero complaints.

This was the perfect stay! We were welcomed so warmly and our group could not have asked for more. Great setting. Fabulous location. Amazing facilities. Best thing was the warm hospitality shown by Pauline

Can not think of a single thing that we didn’t like about the property!

Quiet and very comfortable, provided for all our needs fresh or T stay to visit our son( And father) who had taken ill suddenly and ended up in hospital.

Could not get a wi fi signal someone came to try to fix it but unsuccessful.

Beautiful grounds and cosy cottage to stay in , Pauline the host was very helpful and even had room in her paddock for our pony , was great to get after a day at a show and travelling home the next morning with a happy pony .

The property was full of wonderful treasures to explore and we thoroughly enjoyed walking the grounds to see the beautiful historical buildings and gardens!

There was nothing we did not like. it was exactly everything we had hoped to find when wanting to stay in a quaint cottage.

There was a security deposit taken straight away and then the cost of the stay deducted from the credit card on top of the deposit. The deposit itself was finally refunded to our credit card 3 weeks after our visit. Once the deposit was refunded the final cost of the stay still came in over €50 more than was listed when we booked so we're not sure if that was all down to exchange rate differences.
