The Coastguard Boat House on Belfast Lough is the only Boat House you can stay in on Belfast Lough - it is unique - one of its kind. Located on its own slipway, less than 2 meters from the sea - it offers an immersive experience for those who love the tides and beat of nature. Despite being a heritage building, it has all modern conveniences including oven, hob, microwave, TV/DVD, wi-fi, and washing machine/drier. However, most people just want to look at the Lough and the amazing views.
I am passionate about Belfast, its people and history having lived here all my life. I run a blog about things to do in Belfast and provide visitors with hints on best undiscovered places, and the ones to avoid. Booking the Boat House offers you more than just a place to lay your head - I want you to come back again and again, so we have stacks of guides for you on hand.
The Coastguard Boat House on Belfast Lough is ideally located, as it offers you a peaceful retreat while also being ten minutes from Belfast City's lively Cathedral Quarter. The bus stop is one minute walk from the Boat House - with one bus taking you straight into the city centre, the train is five minutes walk, then two stops (taking five mins) or you could make it local and visit the many shops, bars and restaurants in Jordanstown village (a four minute walk along the coast) including a supermarket and an old English tearoom. For children, there is the beach to play on, a tide clock in the Boat House so they can explore the ship wrecks, but also not one but two playgrounds within walking distance, along the coast.
