Irish Landmark is a non-profit organisation that finds interesting and unusual properties that are in need of conservation, and we give them new life. Since 1992, we've been turning historic buildings into truly special self-catering holiday accommodation. Our properties range from lighthouses and schoolhouses, to castles and gate lodges.
As an educational charity, our primary aim is to conserve and sustain iconic buildings. That's why Irish Landmark properties are living buildings, not museum settings. Irish Landmark always respects the history and architectural integrity of the structures we conserve, but we also ensure they have all the contemporary comforts you want in a holiday home.
We had a wonderful stay. The house is even bigger than the pictures show and has everything you need. We didn’t want to leave!
Ended up meeting the son of the lighthouse keeper from the 60’s-70’s while out walking around outside the property which was a real treat too.
Van Morrison wrote a song called “Coney Island” about trips he took with his Mam that included St John’s point and all the other places we visited during our stay. Van was right when he said “And the craic was good” - we had a fantastic few days here. Stunning location and such a comfortable place to stay. We loved it !
We had a wonderful time at Blackhouse Lighthouse, comfortable clean warm accommodation. Fantastic views and an amazing walk along the coast, it’s a must do.
Thank you Pamela for making the place so welcoming.
The house is beautifully preserved with original features. The views and the sounds of the sea are soothing, perfect for a quiet get away holiday. We had a wonderful time.
This was the most beautiful accommodation , the whole family loved the house and the original features . The most amazing views that we couldn’t get enough of and so incredibly quiet , peaceful and relaxing . We will have memories and photos of this place for a long time to come ! Thank you !
Linda was so very helpful in getting us settled into this beautifully restored Corn Mill home. The location was perfect for being close to all the lovely shops, restaurants and sites of Bushmills. It was such a delight to stay so close to the two beautiful waterfalls. I even caught a glimpse of a fish jumping up one of them! The home is spacious and full of light. Kitchen and bathroom stocked with what we needed for a comfortable stay. There are Lovely antiques throughout this home. Parking was on site. Loved our stay!
Very, very different and you need to be fit and able because of the spiral staircase, which you may get fed up with, but overall we loved it.
Each of the three floors has its own charm.
The bedroom and adjoining bathroom were beautiful, the only drawback is the water pressure as to be able to fill the beautiful bath you would need to be staying a week.
The kitchen/sitting area is superb, 2 very comfortable armchairs in front of an excellent fireplace. Good cooking and eating facilities with an adequate fridge.
The rooftop area had great views, on a good day a great place to eat and the ram...more
We truly enjoyed the walks and forestry areas.
We have great respect for these Irish Historical Buildings and love to support their survival.
On our walk we met with Viscount and Viscountess Brookeborough, we wish to thank them kindly for a wonderful stay.
We will most definitely stay again.
We had such a wonderful stay at the Magherintemple Lodge. It is cozy, spacious, and peaceful - everything we were looking for during our escape from the city. The garden is the perfect place to read a book in the morning and soak up the sun (if you're lucky enough to get it, like we were!). Grateful for this unique experience staying in such a historic building.
