Gem of a house in a magical setting ❤️
Positive: House was nice and comfortable. Location was brilliant mountain and forest walks just behind. Good set up for children as there was a football table. Lovely bed linen and duvets. Nicely maintained, decorated and clean. Very central location to facilities and the outdoors.
Negative: House was a bit drafty and cold at times although we had very cold weather for our stay. Front door could do with work/draught excluder as let's in a lot of cold air. Some rooms had thermo heating control and some didn't therfore some bedrooms were a bit cold. The oven door didn't latch properly.

Excellent holiday home and would not hesitate to revisit.
Positive: Great secluded location with clear directions from host, although might be difficult to locate if not familiar with area and travelling at night. Communication with host was good.
The property was warm and comfortable throughout our stay with no need to adjust heating. Everything we needed was available. The Football table was great for not only the younger kids, but the older ones too.
Ideal base for walking and trekking in local area. Local towns of Rostrevor and Warrenpoint short drive away giving access to meet all needs.
Negative: Being very picky, bedroom above split level bedroom lacks sound proofing!!
At times the wifi was a little glitchy and so impacted connectivity to Tv and internet services but overall was not a serious issue.
The weather was awful so could not enjoy outdoor space fully, but that just gives an excuse to revisit sometime in future.

Absolutely wonderful!
Positive: The house was exceptional. Lovely and warm (underfloor heating) so the baby and toddler in our party could play comfortably on the floor. There was loads of space and the house was wonderfully equipped. We celebrated my son’s 40th birthday as well as New Year during our 5 night stay. The large kitchen was really well equipped so we were able to cook meals for the 7 adults and two babies with ease….. and there was a super big table that we could all sit around comfortably. The house is very remote with lovely views, however there is a path right outside the back of the house for lovely walks etc in the Mourne mountains. We also walked into Rostrevor along this path.. 3 miles … which took about one hour. It was a beautiful walk. We would not hesitate to return to Yellow water cottage, and think this would be a fantastic base for a summer vacation.
Negative: The outside appearance not does reflect what a lovely house this is.
Good to know
