    “The house was great, everything we needed was provided.”

    The owner was easy to deal with. Unfortunately we found the Sykes' service wanting - despite notifying them immediately that we had to adjust our dates, it took most of a week to get it sorted and then they had the gall to charge another £126 admin fee. I'd expect some kind of fee but felt this to be excessive in the extreme and I wouldn't be in a hurry to use Sykes again.

About the location

COLERAINE

Portstewart 5.7 miles; Portrush 6.6 miles; Derry 30.4 miles; Belfast 52.2.

Coleraine is the principal town on the Causeway Coast. Situated on the banks of the River Bann, it boasts an attractive pedestrian area with award winning floral displays. Soaked in history, with charm and character, the town offers a unique mix of old and new. One of the least celebrated, but most fascinating features about Coleraine is Mountsandel Wood (BT52 1TL). This Mesolithic site is believed to have been inhabited from as long ago as 7700- 7400BC. Visitors to Mountsandel Wood can enjoy a circular walk within the woodland and there is a commanding view of the town from the summit of Mountsandel Fort, which is thought to date to the Anglo-Norman period. Coleraine is close to the bustling towns of Portrush and Portstewart (known as The Triangle), both with busy nightlife. The incredible city of Derry/Londonderry is also within easy driving distance.
