Reviews
“As avid and discerning travelers, we were very excited about our stay at “House on the Bay” in Belfast. The location is magnificent with beautiful views, and the house itself has everything that one could ask for. The online pictures are an accurate reflection of the house and grounds. Two highlights for us were Young’s Lobster Pound, left out of the driveway a few minutes away and a pleasant surprise, Rice & Noodle Thai Restuarant, a few minutes away taking a right out of the driveway. All in all, a GREAT stay in Belfast!!” –J.G., 2021
