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.

I always want come back here as my father was a lighthouse keeper and was stationed here 1971-75. I wanted to bring my family here to show them where I had spent some time. I was extremely lucky to get the very same house that we lived in. I had a fantastic weekend staying here. It was everything I expected and more. The staff couldn’t be more helpful. And the house felt like a home. I will definitely be back.

We loved the cottage, it was very clean, comfortable and warm as we had some chilly evenings. The decor was soothing ,blues and greens, lots of books to dip into about lighthouses which were very interesting. We were very pleased with our first Irish Landmark property and hooe to come again sometime.

It was a splurge for us, but totally worth it to experience the history, character and incredible setting. Very comfortable. Lovely walk to town. The Irish Trust was very accommodating with our reservation issues. If we lived in Ireland we’d want to stay at all the Trust’s accommodations. It feels good to support their important work.

A four night stay for a family reunion was very successful. The access road is amazing and some might find it difficult, but it's certainly worth it. Spectacular views of Scotland, the Isle of Mann and the local coastline. Great access to the cliff walk which is great. Also recommend the Gobbins path, Jess's Plaice in Whitehead and Millars Bar in Ballycarry. Good walk into Whitehead, although there's not much in the village to detain you. One of the party found the stresses of the cliff path and walk to Whitehead a bit much - there are lots of steps and steep gradients, but generally the...more

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. Impeccably clean and really cosy. The surrounding walks were a joy. Thank you for maintaining these wonderful buildings.

Lovely location, well off the beaten track thankfully, which made it easy to manage our dogs, particularly as there was little traffic, even on a bank holiday weekend in July. Very close to Ballycastle town which has everything you might need. A great base for exploring the North Coast, weather was amazing too.
