Cove Avenue - Groomsport - County Down - Northern Ireland

Cove Avenue is a luxury self catering seaside rental in a beautiful part of Northern Ireland. Groomsport is a small seaside village on the southern shore of Belfast Lough Northern Ireland. It is only three miles from the market town of Bangor.

Step back in time and visit the Cockle Row Cottages, illustrating life for the fisherman and his family at the turn of the last century. The quiet village with picturesque harbour boasts an award-winning restaurant, a wine bar and a traditional pub as well as a coffee shop and grocery/newsagent, all within walking distance of Cove Avenue.

Situated on the Nothern end of the Ards Peninsula, few coastal villages in Ireland can compare with Groomsport for scenic charm, tranquil beauty and historical heritage. Northern Ireland is well served from the U.K. by budget airlines, the nearest airport George Best Belfast City Airport is only 20 mins by car. Belfast International Airport 40 mins. Both airports have carhire facilities. For visitors travelling by car from Britain Groomsport is within 20 mins drive from the ferry terminal at Belfast and an hours drive from the ferry terminal at Larne.

This bright comfortable has lots of room for all the family. Ideal for young children as it is safe and just a short walk to a super beach with lots of rock pools. Groomsport shops and restaurants are a short walk away and there are many interesting places to visit and things to do in nearby Bangor and the Ards Peninsula. We had a great stay in August 2011 and can thoroughly recommend it.

We stayed here 2 weeks (family of 4) absolutely loved it. It's in a great location, has everything provided. 5 minute walk to the beach. The house itself is lovely, really spacious and a great conservatory / sun-room which gives beautiful views of Belfast Lough. Bedrooms are all spacious, as is the living room. The kitchen is well equipped.
