Description from owner
Description
Lilac Tree Cottage is a pretty, traditional Irish cottage dating back to 1860 with a modern twist. It is located on a street of stone cottages on the edge of the small historic village of Greyabbey with its Cistercian abbey dating back to 1160. The abbey is set in beautiful parkland and is just across the way from the cottage, the perfect spot for walks and picnics. Greyabbey has a number of historic buildings and a selection of antique and vintage shops, restaurants and coffee shops.
The cottage has been recently renovated and is furnished with a mixture of vintage and contemporary pieces yet maintains its charm with all modern home comforts.
Lilac Tree Cottage is quaint and cosy with a sizeable living room, seperate kitchen, 2 bedrooms, bathroom with overhead shower, pretty side garden with decked seating area offering great views of the Abbey.
The cottage is within easy walking distance of the abbey, local park, antique and vintage boutiques, convenience store and butchers, coffee shops and restaurants. Orange Tree House (wedding venue) is within 10 minutes walk. You are just a short drive to the beautiful beach and harbour of Ballywalter. Major supermarkets and amenities at Newtownards are just 10 minutes drive away. All major attractions of Strangford Lough are on your doorstep including the pretty villages of Portaferry and Strangford, the historic town of Downpatrick and stunning National Trust properties and gardens at Mount Stewart and Castleward. All the major attractions of Northern Ireland are accessible including Belfast just 30 minutes drive away, the Mourne Mountains 50 minutes drive and the North Coast with the Giants Causeway 1.5 hours drive. It is a superb location for a family holiday as you have a wealth of options to chose from - a fabulous long sandy beach, play parks, aquarium, petting farms, play cafes, adventure playgrounds, canoeing, windsurfing and quad biking to name but a few! The cottage is equally suited to a romantic getaway or family holiday.
