It started with a view.
The kind of view that stops you in your tracks. Sea stretching endlessly, Rathlin Island on the horizon, and the quiet drama of the cliffs that have stood for centuries. We always knew this land was special. What we didn’t know back then was just how many people would fall in love with it too.
Carrick-a-Rede Retreat was born from a desire to share something unique. Not just a place to stay, but a place to breathe, slow down and reconnect with nature. What began as a single idea to create high-end cabins that blend into the landscape quickly became a passion project.
It took months of design, planning and building (usually in wellies and against the wind), but by the time the first cabin was ready, we knew we’d created something different. A place where the coastline is your backdrop, where you can wrap up in a robe, step outside, and watch the sky turn orange over the sea, and where guests can completely unplug or lean into adventure.
We’ve grown since then. More cabins, new extras, bikes, BBQs, private viewpoints. But the heart of it remains the same. Carrick-a-Rede Retreat is still about that same feeling: peace, beauty and a touch of magic on the Causeway Coast.
This is where it all began. And we’re just getting started.
