Hello my name is Colum. My partner Elaine and I will be your hosts during your stay at Millbrae Lodges. We started renovating the property little over two years ago, a labour of love as I did most of the work myself. There are photographs of the renovations as it progressed for guests to view during their stay. I have lived in the area all of my life and have plenty of local stories and knowledge of the history to share with my guests if they are interested. We look forward to welcoming you during your stay.

A warm welcome awaits you at Millbrae Lodges. Steeped in history, this property was built in the 1700’s and was originally used for farming purposes. The accommodation still retains original features and characteristics, with a small river running through the courtyard. A gate keeper’s cottage is also attached to the lodges, with historians stating it had the first toilet in the countryside with running water. The toilet still remains intact today! Historians also report that one of the notorious United Irishmen lived in the main house.

Millbrae Lodges is situated in the heart of Country Antrim. Conveniently located 10miles from Belfast City Centre, guests can enjoy leading attractions such as the Game of Thrones Exhibition Centre, the Titanic Exhibition Centre plus many more. Located on the direct route to the North Antrim Coast, guests are a drive away from the Giants Causeway, Dark Hedges, Carrick-a-Reed Rope Bridge and the Royal Portrush Golf Club. We are also located close to one of Northern Ireland’s latest attractions – The Gobbins. For those interested in fishing, walking and cycling we are an 8minute drive from Lough Neagh – Northern Ireland’s largest freshwater lake. We are also located on the famous Ulster Grand Prix course – the fastest road race in the world. We are an 8 minute drive from International Airport, with plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants located close by in the local villages.
