Cottage Guestbook
Hemp cottage is stunning. In January it was warm and cosy. The children enjoyed the riverside setting and Belfast was within easy reach for a day out. If you have an interest in sustainable building a stay here will fill you with ideas and confidence.

I was recommended Hemp Cottage by a friend. I was in great need of a break. This was ideal. The cottage was beautiful and very comfortable. I was interested in the concept of the building. The weather was good and I was able to enjoy the garden. The owners Rachel and Tom were very helpful and friendly. I enjoyed local walks. I would go back and have no hesitation in recommending it to friends.

We had a great long stay at the Hemp Cottage. We especially enjoyed the peaceful and quiet place, laying in the bed and listen to the river. The days started very well with breakfast at the corner window with river view in the bright open plan living room. And they finished cosy with a glass of wine at the wood burning stove. Strangford Lough and Delamont Park are just 10min away for long walks.
