About

Mollys Loft is located in the countryside on the outskirts of Ballycastle, with Capecastle forest nearby, bringing regular wildlife visitors to our location.  Red squirrels, pheasants, black tipped hares and deer will regularly frequent the garden.  On evenings swallows and bats will put on a summertime aerial display.  Our rural setting means we have very little light pollution, which makes for clear stargazing on cloudless nights, with exceptional moonrises over Knocklayde.

Molly's Loft is located in the region of the Antrim Coast and Glens, an area of Outstanding Natural beauty.  There is something for everyone on our doorstep, to include the picturesque seaside town of Ballycastle, home of the historic Auld Lammas Fair, Rathlin Island with its abundant wildlife and bird sanctuary, the wild ruggedness of Fair Head, the Dark Hedges, Ballintoy harbour, Carrick-a-rede rope bridge, the Giant's Causeway, and the town of Bushmills with its world famous distillery.

We are conveniently located to a number of golf courses to suit players of all handicaps, to include the Royal Portrush,home of the 148th Open.  Ballycastle's 18 hole golf course is a ten minute journey by car, and offers a wide variety of challenging holes along the sea front, with views of Rathlin Island as a backdrop.

For sporting enthusiasts there nearby beaches for fishing, surfing, and swimming, and miles of hiking paths.

We are situated near a number of exceptional restaurants and coffee shops, each with their own charm.

The area is also home to a wide range of movie locations, most notably Game of Thrones.
