Welcome to the website of Blackthorn Cottage

Blackthorn Cottage is a charming two hundred year-old stone building that is located in a small clachan, or hamlet, of houses and farms two miles from the village of Broughshane in County Antrim.

The cottage has recently been renovated and retains its traditional character while providing contemporary comfort. The heating system employs modern green technology to combine the use of a wood-burning stove with solar energy.

It provides accommodation for two or three people: it has a double bedroom (with a king-sized double bed or twin beds), a small reading room (with sofa bed), a large   kitchen, and an airy light-filled sitting room. It offers a peaceful venue for creativity or relaxation. Its location and ambience make it the perfect place for writers or artists - or anyone who appreciates the charm of the Antrim countryside.

We live adjacent to the cottage and are on hand to ensure that your stay is a comfortable one. However, the cottage offers privacy and quiet; it is totally self-contained and sits in its own tree-lined fruit garden.
