The property is fully geared up to family holidays and includes a utility room, 2 bathrooms, an enclosed garden and parking for 1 car only. It also benefits from Wifi and is dog friendly.
During peak times, whole week bookings for this property are Friday - Friday.
The accommodation comprises:
Entrance
A UPVC door at the rear of the house leads directly from the street into the utility room .....
Ground Floor
The utility room is big enough for everyone to organise the little ones and the dog before entering the rest of the house. It has an old Belfast sink, an under-counter freezer, washing machine, tumble dryer and separate WC. It oozes practicality and is ideal for rinsing off dirty wellies, sandy shoes and buckets and spades.
From the utility room, a door leads into the kitchen/diner with a range of modern units, fully-working Aga, under-counter fridge, electric 4-ring hob and fan oven, microwave and dishwasher, toaster, kettle and Kenwood espresso machine. There is a dining table with 6 chairs plus 2 foldaway chairs.
A door from the kitchen/diner leads into a hallway with original mosaic floor tiles with two lounges, one off each side. A door at the end of the hallway leads directly into the fully-enclosed lawned garden.
The first lounge has a bay window overlooking the garden, lounge suite, electric fire and TV with Freesat box.
The second lounge is a similar room with a bay window overlooking the garden, a leather suite, TV with Freesat, coal-effect electric fire, occasional tables and lamps.
First Floor
Stairs from the hallway lead to the first floor which comprises 2 large double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Bedroom 1 is a spacious double room with a bay window overlooking the garden and towards Ravenscar (although foliage from nearby trees can obscure the view in the summer months). There are 2 bedside cabinets with drawers and lamps and a large wardrobe.
Bedroom 2 is a similarly sized room with a pine chest of drawers, wardrobe and bedside cabinets. There is also a bay window over looking the garden and beyond towards Ravenscar.
Bathroom 1 is fully tiled and comprises a full-sized bath with shower over, large wash basin, bidet and WC. There is a heated towel rail and radiator. The window to the rear of the property overlooks the back lane, Turner's field and the vineyard.
Bathroom 2 is also fully tiled and comprises a good-sized shower cubicle, large washbasin, WC, heated towel rail and shaving point. A feature stained glass window overlooks Turner's field and the vineyard.
Second Floor
A further staircase leads to the second floor and 2 more bedrooms.
Bedroom 3 is a large twin room with 2 single beds, bedside table and lamp, white wood cot and an antique pine dressing table with decorative Victorian tiles. There is also a wicker chair, bookshelf unit and a large resident moose! A dormer window looks out across the bay.
Bedroom 4 is slightly smaller with 2 single beds, bedside table, bookshelf unit and a full-length cheval mirror. There is a dormer window with lovely views over the tree tops and across the bay to Ravenscar.
Outside
The garden is fully enclosed and is accessible from the front door of the house. The lawn slopes gently away from the house and the garden has some lovely mature shrubs and 2 wooden benches for taking in the morning air. A path through the middle of the garden leads to a garden gate which in turn leads onto a communal path to the upper village and beach. It should be noted that there are a couple of thorny shrubs and an old water fountain in the garden. It is important therefore that small children are supervised in the garden.

We stayed at Lisnacrieve for 4 nights 3/7 April and loved it. House is extremely well equipped and clean. We felt very comfortable and at home. Will definitely return. It’s in a perfect location too and very quiet. Can highly recommend

We spent Christmas at Lisnacrieve this year and it was absolutely wonderful. The house was really well equipped, comfortably furnished, spotlessly clean and a great place for a family to gather together for a special occasion. Our stay was complicated by my partner having a broken leg (and there was a huge storm on the day we left) but Julie and the team could not have been more helpful and flexible. It’s the fifth time we’ve stayed in one of the RHB cottages and we’ll definitely be back!
