Company info

Irish Landmark is a non-profit organisation that finds interesting and unusual properties that are in need of conservation, and we give them new life. Since 1992, we’ve been turning historic buildings into truly special self-catering holiday accommodation. Our properties range from lighthouses and schoolhouses, to castles and gate lodges. As an educational charity, our primary aim is to conserve and sustain iconic buildings. That’s why Irish Landmark properties are living buildings, not museum settings. Irish Landmark always respects the history and architectural integrity of the structures we conserve, but we also ensure they have all the contemporary comforts you want in a holiday home.

Property info

The cottage has a romantic fairytale appearance. Situated at the end of a long farm lane, guests will have a real sense of being far removed from the hustle and bustle of normal everyday life. The large wild garden area offers an opportunity for children to burn off excess energy. There is a large resident bat colony in the roof space at Ballealy Cottage that is very active during the summer months. Bats are a protected species and guests are asked to ensure they do not disturb the roost. When the roost is at its most active, July and August, there may be an odour present in the upstairs bedroom and bathroom. Strictly 1 pet permitted - Guests MUST inform host at time of booking if a pet will be staying.

Neighborhood info

Located close to the shores of Lough Neagh, Ballealy Cottage provides easy access to Belfast, and also makes a good base from which to explore the beautiful county of Antrim.
