Blackwell House

My daughters treated me to afternoon tea in Blackwell House. Perfect. Beautiful surroundings, lovely mulled wine and amazing food. The very best afternoon tea I’ve ever tasted. Had been there some years ago for afternoon tea and this time it was the same excellent standard thanks to Edele and Alessio.

Excellent! We cannot recommend Blackwell House highly enough. From the warm welcome upon arrival, to the superb standard of food and cleanliness to the afternoon tea and fantastic breakfast. You will not be disappointed. We have stayed in many hotels in Northern Ireland and Worldwide, but nothing can top the experience, warm welcome, fantastic food and such tasteful accommodation. Book a break at Blackwell House!

We were very much looking forward to returning to Blackwell House having spent many wonderful times there with Steve and Joyce in charge. Edele and Alessio have maintained the extremely high standards of accommodation and food with impeccable service and warm , friendly hospitality. Our son and his partner came with us and they are vegans, but that was no problem at all and the vegan food was lovely and a very high standard. We had a wonderful stay and are looking forward to returning next year.

We only stayed one night but we were really impressed with the warm welcome, great service and a fantastic full irish breakfast. Very stylish bathroom and furnishings. Would stay here again if we were visiting the area and would recommend this to others

My wife and I spent 2 days at Blackwell House for a quick break and had a fantastic time. We stayed in the Loft Suite which was very spacious, with a huge comfy bed, great bathroom and a hot tub on the terrace overlooking fields. Like the whole house, it was spotlessly clean and beautifully appointed. On the first night we had the 5 course dinner which was lovely - all the food was very fresh, tasty and well presented - Edele is an excellent cook. On the second night we had Swiss dishes suggested by Alessio, cheese fondue and raclette - this was a great experience, and we are now sourcing out our own raclette equipment! The breakfasts each morning were gorgeous as well. They use as much of their own home or locally grown ingredients as possible, and you can tell in how everything tastes. Edele and Alessio are impeccable hosts and really make you feel special. For anyone looking to have a couple of days away or use it as a place to explore Northern Ireland I would really recommend Blackwell House. We will certainly try and get back in the future, it's a real 5 star experience.

We spent a couple days again this year at Blackwell House and it was another throughly enjoyable time. The accommodations are wonderful and the diners a treat. The owners were beyond gracious and I would highly recommend it if you need a relaxing stay near the Dublin or Belfast areas Very much worth your time
