Experience

Rooted in Nature.... Designed to Restore

Carrick-a-Rede Retreat is more than a place to stay. It is a space to slow down, breathe deeper, and reconnect with nature, with yourself, and with each other. Inspired by the raw beauty of the Causeway Coast, each cabin tells a story of shelter, solitude, and soulful living.

We believe design should do more than look good. It should stir something within. That is why our spaces are created with intention. From the warmth of natural materials to the calm of sea-facing views, every element is chosen not just for its appearance, but for the feeling it brings.

At the edge of land and sea, we offer sanctuary. A place where the wild breeze slips in through open windows. Where wellness lives in simplicity. Where luxury means silence, space, and stillness.

This is not just a getaway. It is a return to what matters most.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An amazing start to our vacation in Ireland! We stayed in Cabin 1 for two nights and enjoyed every minute. The first night was foggy but cleared by the next morning so we could enjoy a stunning sunrise. Location was in great proximity to the rope bridge, Giant's Causeway, and Castle Dunluce, all of which we visited and were fortunate enough to have the perfect weather to enjoy. Our cabin was lovely, clean, well appointed and cozy.  The arrival instructions were clear and the owner's were always pleasant and quick to respond from the time I booked out stay through check out, can't ask for much more.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A hidden gem on the north coast. We had a fantastic two night stay. The views are unbelievable and every detail has been carefully thought of at this amazing spot! Don’t make any plans when you go to stay here, as you will NOT want to leave, especially with the recent addition of a sauna, right on the cliff edge, overlooking the rope bridge. Highly recommend and will 100% be returning in the future for another stay.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The views were breathtaking, the cabin was exceptional, and the kindness and helpfulness of the team was beyond all my expectations!! I wish I had spent my entire trip in that cabin. The peace, beauty, and comfort of the cabin and the surrounding area is something I will treasure forever. It’s located so close to amazing must see locations and the neighbors ( the sheep ) are adorable. Everything was clean and well maintained. I am so so grateful I had the opportunity to stay here.
