Each is placed for the most amazing views.

Our woodfired hot tubs allows you to enjoy the night stargazing from your own private hot tub with the one you love.

Just spent a lovely overnight stay here. The huts were exceptionally clean and the views from the hot tub are amazing! The perfect spot for a relaxing trip away.

After a busy back to school week “The Shepherds Rest “ was the perfect spot to unwind, relax and spend quality time as a family. The location was tranquil but not too remote and although only a short distance away from home felt worlds away. The scenery and setting was beautiful over looking the ocean where we saw a pod of dolphins pass by, the accommodation is finished and decorated to a standard higher than most hotels with beautiful soft furnishings and high quality locally made items. The pod that accommodates 5 was comfortable cosy  but still roomy.  Every need and more was catered for, from supplies of local produce to charging leads,WiFi, games,smart TV and  wash bay with warm shower outside  if you wish to bring your dog and the list goes on. One of the highlights was the perfect evening entertainment, a log fired hot tub… absolute luxury. This is the ideal spot for a family break,couples night, girls get away  or a hen weekend could take on all three pods for the perfect group weekend.  Great location to explore the Glen’s of a Antrim  and the North coast. The host were lovely highly highly recommend and I will be back with friends in the near future. This is luxury glamping at its best !

If you are looking somewhere special then this is the place to go. Words cannot describe how wonderful it is.

The hut has been finished to a very high standard from luxury hand wash/shower gel to a beautiful sofa dressed with ulster weaver cushions with matching beanbag etc.

The welcome pack which was provided was much  more than we could have hoped for , it consisted of wheaten bread, crisps, whiskey, jams, milk etc.

Also a coffee maker and speciality teas were provided.

The views from the hut were amazing waking up to the sun rising on the water was so beautiful and not to be missed.

The wood fire hot tub was incredible with fresh water each day, this had to be the most relaxing experience with only the sound of the waves from the sea.

Also very important for us is that the Shepherd’s rest is dog friendly our wee westie loved the peace and quiet and spent her time chilling looking at the water.

Last but definitely not least was our host Mary who checked in with us to make sure everything was OK and always answered texts immediately.

We can’t rate the Shepherd’s rest highly enough and can’t wait to return.

An absolutely AMAZING night away at The Shepherd’s Rest, everything you could ask for and more. One of the best glamping facilities I have ever stayed in. Mary has thought of absolutely everything, even the little attention to detail with the dog treats for the pets. Will definitely be back ❤️ thank you so much

We have just returned from the incredible Shepherd’s Rest Luxury Glamping. This place is a little piece of heaven here on earth. Stunning seaviews and the most beautiful, well equipped cabins – with everything you could want and more. Mary, the host was fantastic and provided information on local eateries and great tips on the wood fired hot tub. She couldn’t have done enough for us. We can’t wait to stay again. Thank you!
