“Excellent as always!”
Coming back for our third year we found the Porthouse like a home from home. Valerie extremely helpful with some pre arrival issues, the house spotlessly clean and decor appearing fresh and updated since last year. Great base for large group or multigenerational trip. Looking forward to next year!

“Wonderful house and location!”
We returned for another family holiday after enjoying it so much last year. Immaculately presented, ideally located walking distance to both the town and the strand. Looking forward to booking again next year!

“Excellent base for the north coast.”
Great communication with hosts pre and during stay, pictures don’t do it justice. Layout was perfect for holiday with 3 generations of family giving the grand parents a floor to themselves so not disturbed by 3 and 6 year old. Garden ideal for kids, enjoyed it so much we considered buying neighbouring property that was for sale but wasn’t kept to same standard as this one. Handy utility area in garage with lots of storage for beach stuff. Highly recommend and great value.

“Pleasant house just like home”
We had a very pleasant stay in the property. It is a great property for touring the area. Located on the outskirts of Portstewart it is a couple of minutes by car from the award winning Strand Beach and Portstewart Promenade. Also very convenient to Portrush and other locations on the North Coast. The property itself is large with five bedrooms, one en-suite, a large bathroom and a downstairs toilet. It has all the facilities you would expect from a modern home. I would recommend the property as a good base if you are visiting the North Coast.
