About
Tucked away in three acres of mature gardens and woodland, Peatlands offers a secluded and romantic 4-star getaway in the heart of the spectacular Causeway Coast. Named for the surrounding National Nature Reserve, Peatlands reflects its setting through a focus on sustainability, nature connection, and artisan craft.
Blending exceptional craftsmanship with distinctive character, our two luxury shepherd's huts provide peace, privacy, and views of the stunning natural setting and abundant wildlife. Every detail has been curated to ensure your stay feels exceptional, indulgent, and effortlessly comfortable.
Also home to an award-winning artisan bakery, Peatlands invites guests to indulge in freshly baked sourdough bread and handcrafted treats, delivered to your hut for arrival and as part of our delicious breakfast offering. Bakery courses in sourdough bread making, offered exclusively to guests, can be added when booking your stay.
Each hut is secluded in its own ample space with private boardwalk and deck. Inside, you'll find:
A king-size bed with a supremely comfortable Mlily mattress and luxurious Bedfolk cotton linens
A luxury shower room with premium toiletries, fluffy towels and cosy robes
A fully equipped kitchen with fridge, oven, microwave, double hob, kettle, coffee maker, toaster, and high-quality dishware
High-speed Wi-Fi and smart projector/TV
A fold-out dining table and chairs for cosy meals
Heating options including a wood-burning stove, electric heater, and heated towel rail
Step outside to your private deck with a fire pit and dining area, perfect for stargazing or enjoying a drink under the night sky.
A separate space, The Nook, is reserved for guest use, with facilities for drying clothes, storing large bags or cases, freezer space, ice buckets, beach towels, secure storage for sports equipment (e.g., cycles), logs and charcoal for firepit cooking, maps and other local guides.
Peatlands is just 45 minutes from Belfast International Airport, with the spectacular scenery and rich culture of the Causeway Coast just a short drive away: 10 minutes to Portrush, Dunluce Castle, and Bushmills, and 15 minutes to the Giant’s Causeway, Dark Hedges, and Portstewart. It is close to the Glens of Antrim, Ballycastle, and ferry crossings to Rathlin Island. Right across the road lies the Garry Bog National Nature Reserve – one of NI’s largest areas of undamaged lowland raised bog. Recognised as a Ramsar Site, Special Area of Conservation, and Area of Special Scientific Interest, it is a haven for biodiversity. A public path allows guests to explore its vibrant grasses, mosses, heathers, and gorse.
Peatlands is open all year round. Whatever the season, we would love to welcome you!
