One of the most famous attractions in Northern Ireland is the Giant’s Causeway in Antrim, which can be visited when you stay at holiday cottages in Northern Ireland.
This legendary coastal phenomenon was thought to be naturally caused by a volcanic eruption which occurred an estimated 60 million years ago. However, Celtic legend decrees that the pillars of the causeway were caused by an altercation between Finn McCool, a giant who lived off shore and a local man who insisted on insulting him at every turn. Whatever explanation you choose to believe, there is no doubting the breathtaking beauty of the Giant’s Causeway. We advertise several cottages in Antrim, varying from quaint two bedroom cottages to more expansive accommodation which can house up to eight people. Amongst them are some of the most luxurious holiday cottages in Northern Ireland, which provide awe inspiring sea views and beaches that are only moments away from your luxury accommodation. Again, the location lends itself to several choices of activity including fishing, hill walking and coastal tours.
