The Coastguard Boathouse, nestled on the picturesque shore of Belfast Lough in Newtownabbey, County Antrim, offers a unique retreat for sea enthusiasts. Accommodating up to five guests, this charming property features one bedroom and is pet-friendly, making it an ideal choice for families and animal lovers. Its enviable location, less than two meters from the sea, allows guests to experience the captivating sight of waves occasionally lapping against the windows, creating an immersive coastal atmosphere that is hard to replicate elsewhere.
This historic boathouse, which has been thoughtfully renovated, seamlessly blends modern conveniences with preserved original features that reflect its 200-year history. Guests can enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the Lough, Holywood, Carrickfergus, and the iconic Titanic Quarter, all while cooking meals in the kitchen, where they can even spot Belfast's famous cranes. The property is strategically located just ten minutes from Belfast’s vibrant Cathedral Quarter by car, or five minutes by train, providing easy access to the city’s rich culture and attractions such as Belfast Castle and Belfast Zoo.
The Coastguard Boathouse stands out as the only accommodation of its kind on Belfast Lough, making it a must-visit for those who appreciate the sea. The property features a slipway for guests' use, direct access to the beach, and a cycle path for leisurely exploration. A tidal clock is provided, allowing visitors to time their adventures to coincide with low tide, perfect for discovering local ruins and sea wrecks. Additionally, children are treated to a complimentary pirate kit and treasure map, enhancing their experience as they embark on their own explorations around the boathouse and its surroundings.
Despite its close proximity to the bustling city of Belfast, the Boathouse is situated in a tranquil, historical row of Coastguard Cottages, ensuring a peaceful retreat. The owners, who reside nearby, are available to assist guests whenever needed while also respecting their privacy. With attractions such as Titanic Belfast and the Theatre At The Mill within reach, as well as family-friendly venues like the Odyssey Complex and SSE Arena, the Coastguard Boathouse serves as an excellent base for those looking to explore the beauty and culture of Northern Ireland.
