Ballylagan Organic Farm

What a great experience. The farm is beautiful. We stayed in the apartment above the farm store. It was perfect for us - kitchen, bedroom, living room. The beds are both very comfortable. The surrounding area is beautiful. Close to antrum causeway which is mainly why we stayed there!

This is not a review of the guest accommodation (as I’ve never stayed) but a review of the shop. I’ve been going every week for quite a few years now and should have said these things before now. 1/ Nothing is overpriced. Meat and veg that come from the farm itself are of exceptional quality and they could get more money for it - but they don’t. 2/ Ballylagan bacon and Coppa are the best you will find anywhere in the world. 3/ I regularly make my own bread with organic flour but still can’t beat Ballylagan sourdough 4/ Ballylagan rib-eye steaks are of a quality that you will never find anywhere else. (All their beef is, but rib-eyes are special. I can’t eat supermarket meat any more because once I got used to organically raised, grass-fed, the rest just tastes grainy.) 5/ The staff are great! The most knowledgable about food and the helpful that you’ll ever find.

We stayed at a very nice room upstairs on the 1st floor with a view of the garden. Room and bathroom were spacious and spotless clean. It was a very quiet and nice place to stay. Thanks Patricia for your hospitality.
