Glenariff Forest Hideaway - Ballymena

It was such a peaceful wee spot, booked for one night, but wished we had been able to stay at least one more. The basket left for breakfast was perfect, plus milk and eggs in the fridge. We drove into Cushendall for a chinese, although we could have had delivery if we wanted. The hot tub was wonderful and thoroughly needed. The best part for me was the dog who greeted us by running over and promptly lying on her side for belly rubs her pup joined us shortly after. A sheep and her lambs, ducks and chickens just made made for an idyllic stay.

We had an amazing stay here! The three kids absolutely loved it, we used the hot tub, were able to get a takeaway recommended by Jacqueline which was lovely, then had snacks and watched a movie. Everything was very clean, had loads of personal touches and the bed was very comfortable! Thanks so much

Located across from Glenariff Country Park, this is a great location to base yourself to explore the surrounding area.

We stayed in the first floor apartment, although other accommodation types available, that had everything you could need for a comfortable stay,well equipped kitchen, spacious living area with large screen tv , great shower room and a very comfortable bed making for an excellent nights sleep!
Bonus was the availability of a hot tub just outside the door which made for a great way to end the evening. Highly recommended and will stay again

The location is great, just opposite the Glenariff forest entrance, so we got to pop over and do the magnificent waterfall walk. Finding the place was easy enough, but Jackie made it super simple with clear instructions.

The place was brilliant, Jackie goes that extra mile we had delicious scones, eggs and all the basics when we arrived. we even got extras for breakfast the next day, including pancakes.

The space is perfect for a little family. We had the two kids on the sofa beds, which worked out fine. The kitchen has everything you need including a coffee machine and the shower was amazing.

Booked through AirBnB - experience from the booking to the checkout was excellent. Jackie is a superb host. Communication was second to none.

Overall, we had a super time and highly recommend Glenariff Forest Hideaway. Thanks!

Loved our stay, place was clean, spacious and warm. The temperature controlled radiators were a special touch. Hot tub was amazing. Great location. The dogs made it 🙂

Brilliant location, and as the name suggests, a perfect hideaway for a few days. Rural and quiet which is great for getting the head showered, but yet, not too remote. Great welcoming committee with the dogs, one of which always brought a gift anytime it came to visit. Great hosts, great location and just such a welcome break (ps-----poor phone reception, which was even better)

Just back from or 2nd stay here and yeah, will be back for a 3rd

According to the add i assumed it would be a wood house/log cabin. Doesn't really say anywhere this is a flat on a really normal house. At the add said chalet! And on the Facebook page only wood house photos was posted until the 1st of December 2023! The full wooden interiors match the photos, but we cant see the outside of the house untill we receive the instructions text and this only happens after the free cancellation period ends.
Hot tub is away from the door and you have to walk on gravel to get to it.
Same hot tub that isn't in the best condition. Shower is very very weak in pressure.
Very poor breakfast.
We are very disappointed.

Brilliant location and very quiet. Property was immaculate. Excellent WiFi and a large smart TV with lots of entertainment on it. Host was excellent.
