Make sure you take the time to have at least one night at Cottlesmore, better still have a couple of nights. Rae & John are excellent hosts who are interested in making sure their guest are informed about local attractions, well fed, relaxed and have very thing they need. So glad we arranged to stay an extra night. Thanks to... More

After recently staying 11 nights in Ireland/Northern Ireland B&B's we had a lot to compare Cottesmore with. I will start by saying Rae was one of our favorite hosts on the whole trip. She had a real Irish charm about her & she gave us great advice on where to eat & what to see. We had already planned most... More

Rae and John are just great! The room is great, the breakfast was fantastic, and having John join us for a conversation was terrific. They also provided us with great tips about what to see in the area, and were in general always helpful and fun.

Rae and Jon were lovely hosts. The bedroom, common room, dining room were all lovely, and beautifully decorated with a little formality to them, while retaining a cosy feel. We were always treated with tea & biscuits upon our return from the day out. These two lovely people are ready to give advise on how best to use your time... More

Just got back from a two night stay at Cottesmore. I could not recommend this B&B highly enough. Rae and John and so friendly and welcoming, the accommodation is beautifully decorated and very clean. You don't need to take toiletries as the bathroom cabinets are fully stocked, even down to nail scissors and cotton wool buds. Even my 13 year... More

When we left, I was a little sad, because I almost felt like I was leaving family. Rae and John are just the loveliest people, and I wish they had a chain of B&Bs. They really know how to operate a bed and breakfast. The rooms are beautifully decorated, the amenities are great (I always use the soap, shampoo and... More

The hosts could not have been nicer. They went out of their way to make you feel at home. The rooms stare the nicest we had on our 3 week trip. Beds were so comfortable and the room was just cozy with a lovely view of the back yard. One of the best parts was you could walk to everything... More

We spent 3 nights at the splendid Cottesmore B&B. Rae and John were very welcoming and were able to advise us on places to see in the local area. Everything was laid on for our comfort; tea, coffee, biscuits and conversation available whenever we wished; comfortable bedrooms; a sitting room with magazines and television; and such a good breakfast that...

My husband and I stayed at Cottesmore with my in-laws on October 1st and had a wonderful time in Bushmills. Rae's home is beautifully decorated, cosy, extremely clean and comfortable. They were excellent hosts showing us where to go in Bushmills for a delicious dinner and cooked us an incredible breakfast the next day. If you stay in Bushmills I... More
