Our cosy city-centre apartment offers the perfect base for exploring everything Derry has to offer. Located right next door to the Museum of Free Derry and just steps from famous murals, walking tours, shops, bars, restaurants, and historic landmarks, this space puts you at the centre of it all. The apartment is thoughtfully set up with everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing stay — including a fully equipped kitchen, fast WiFi, Smart TV, and a peaceful garden both front and back. There's a private, enclosed garden area that’s partially sheltered, beautifully surrounded by greenery and complete with outdoor furniture — perfect for morning coffees or winding down in the evening. At the rear exit, you'll also find a secure, shared courtyard space — ideal for families with children, as it offers a safe and quiet spot to play or enjoy some fresh air together. There is free parking available nearby, although it can get a little busy at times — so it's worth keeping that in mind when planning your arrival. With room for up to 4 guests, the option of a travel cot, self check-in, and a welcome box of treats, the apartment is ideal for couples, solo travellers, friends, or families. Guests love the location, the homely touches, and how easy it is to explore the city from here. Whether you’re here for history, culture, or just the craic, you’ll feel right at home.

Most walking tours stop just outside the apartment! Within minutes, you'll find great cafes, pubs, shops, and the Peace Bridge—all within easy reach.
