Great for a relaxing weekend break

🎃👻 HALLOWEEN AT ROSE VALLEY 👻🎃

Fancy making a little Halloween adventure of it this year? 🎃🍂

Imagine a cosy family weekend on the North Coast… exploring Ballycastle, enjoying all the Halloween fun happening locally, and then coming back to your own little hideaway at Rose Valley. 🧡

And yes… the kids can come too! 👻

Our hut sleeps two adults, but we can set up two wee camp beds for younger children when needed. There is a small additional charge for the extra beds.

There is SO much to do around Ballycastle and the surrounding area at Halloween! 🎃

🎃 Trench Farm is always a favourite for autumn and Halloween fun, with pumpkins, animals, crafts and plenty to keep little ones entertained.

👻 Ballycastle itself will be hosting its Halloween Happenings, with spooky entertainment, characters, amusements and fireworks.

🍂 And then there are all the beautiful autumn adventures the Causeway Coast has to offer.

Spend the day making memories, then head back to Rose Valley for a cosy evening, snuggle up and enjoy the peace and quiet. ✨

This is the perfect little Halloween family getaway — and with so much happening, this is definitely a weekend to snap up before it’s gone! 🎃🧡

Rewind, relax , reset

☀️ Fancy a last-minute weekend escape?

This sunshine has been so unexpected… but so incredibly welcome. And an unexpected trip to Rose Valley Shepherd Hut might just be exactly what you need too. 💛

Wake up to birdsong, enjoy your morning coffee in the peaceful countryside, then spend your day exploring everything our stunning North Coast has to offer.

📍 Just minutes from Ballycastle, where the tennis tournament is in full swing.
🏖 Explore Ballycastle Beach, Whitepark Bay, Ballintoy Harbour, Bushmills and Portrush – all just a short drive away.

✨ If you’re staying this weekend, don’t miss the Ballycastle Artisan Market on Sunday. It’s one of our favourite local events, packed with talented local makers, handcrafted gifts, delicious fresh baking, artisan food and so much more. Be sure to stop by Aloha Jewellery while you’re there, along with the many fantastic stalls that make the market such a special day out.

After a day of exploring, return to the peace and quiet of Rose Valley Shepherd Hut, light the fire, pour yourself a drink and watch the sun go down.

Sometimes the best memories come from the trips you didn’t have planned.

💛 Send us a message to check availability—we’d love to welcome you for a spontaneous weekend on the Causeway Coast.
