"Bobbie's Bothy" is a 170 year old traditional stone built cottage which has undergone renovation in recent years. It is situated in the mature country setting of Co. Antrim and in keeping with the area, features low ceilings, deep window sills, a log burner fire of a bygone era and is presented to you along a Scottish & Irish theme as inspired by Karen, your host. We want you to relax, wind down and recharge in a quiet setting and enjoy this cosy and homely sanctuary.

Hi, I'm Karen. Originally from Scotland and now living in Co. Antrim with my partner Roy. We live right next door to the Bothy and have taken great care to bring you a home from home experience which we hope you take lasting memories away to reminisce upon in your quiet moments. We enjoy motorcycling, country walks, cooking and relaxing. We welcome our friends from the biking community and we accommodate for the essentials of motorcycling - a double garage for safe dry storage, a warm cupboard for drying rain soaked helmets and clothing, tools for those little repair jobs which suddenly appear whilst touring including front and rear axle stands and maintenance equipment such as chain cleaning products to keep your bike in tip top condition and set up for the road ahead, after a comfortable and relaxing restful sleep.

The cottage is situated in a small nook in Co. Antrim with surrounding farmland, farm animals, horses and a shopping mall within 3 miles on the edge of Antrim town. Randalstown has just won the Best Kept Town award for 2024, and has won various other awards over the years. The "Elevation Bridge" upon entry into Randalstown, was designed as a Royal Horticultural Society community garden and stands proudly over the gently tumbling River Maine which flows into Lough Neagh on it's north shore a little over 1 mile away. It opened 2 years ago on the former railway viaduct. Randalstown tells its history through the Heritage Tales project which has placed bronze plaques around the town giving a brief introduction to the town's history and heritage. The town is kept beautiful by the Tidy Randalstown volunteers and it's right on our doorstep!
