Fisherman's Cottage is a quaint and charming cottage located in the small costal village of Ballywalter, County Down. The cottage itself was originally made up of two traditional Fisherman Cottages and was given Listed Building status, thus insuring that this particular piece of Ulster Heritage is preserved for future generations. Tastefully decorated, Fisherman's Cottage provides the traditional cottage feel whilst providing all the conveniences for modern living.  
  • Situated off the Main Street of Ballywalter, the cottage is right beside the local beach and harbour.
